Christmas Dinner, 2008?
[Events]
Yes it’s a very very late story (2 months late) about Christmas, but going through my old photos I realized I hadn’t done a post on our Christmas dinner at Steve’s house.
First thing on the ‘Christmas’ menu was Zhong’s very special hand bought satay. You’ve never had satay for Chrismas? Well you should try it… it’s ‘different’.
The feature meal for the night was this turkey we got from Vary Pasta. It wasn’t that big at 3.5kg, but it was more than enough for all of us there that night. I chose a turkey with bread crumbs and almond stuffing because that’s what the chef had told me was the traditional way of having it.
A rough assortment of the dishes we had that night. It included potato salad, mashed potato, roasted vegetables, Mexican tortilla raps and an assortment of deserts.
Did I mention that I made a Christmas lasagne for the dinner? Unfortunately, I had layered the layers in the wrong order and ended up with the top layer being the lasagne sheets. I called my new disaster creation the ‘Upside Down Lasagne’.
Tortilla wraps brought by our friend Xiao who’s lived the closest to Mexico than any of us.
A mismatched meal of sorts, but all in all, great food and great company. Maybe this year I’ll make an inside out chicken or something.

Since you bought a traditional turkey, did it came with brown sauce or cranberry sauce? Since it was a mismatched meal of sorts, no harm having turkey with satay sauce right? lol…well, no harm fusion it ourselves right =)

well it did come with both brown and cranberry sauce, but yea, didn’t think of trying it with satay sauce since its all fusion-ised.
Next round, next round..LoL
