Re: What are you having for lunch/dinner?

We ate out at a very nice local restaurant tonight courtesy of our lovely German neighbour. There were 7 of us altogether, German, Philippine, Swedish and us. Here are 3 of the starters, the main meals were even bigger, desserts were quite spectacular but I couldn't manage half of what I did have never mind dessert.

Re: What are you having for lunch/dinner?

I presume the second dish were razor clams Loretta darlin' - not too keen on Kalamari, and not really a 'fish' person, but the ham and salami plate looks very interesting, without the 'rabbit food' decoration, and yes I could so easily polish that off and still have room for 'pud'.

Re: What are you having for lunch/dinner?

Well, after that last exchange with hazel it made me fancy something hot so today I have made a nice hot chili - it is maturing now and I will make some turmeric rice and a salad to serve with it later today

The second dish was asaparagas. I'm not a seafood person at all but I did eat a couple of calamaris from that plate and I was surprised to find they were much nicer than ones I have tried in the past. These were just the starters, the main courses everyone had consisted of steaks, pork fillet with wine and honey sauce, pork chops, lamb chops etc etc.

Nobody managed to eat everything Uncle Joe, not even the men. I think I got about half way through my steak with green pepper sauce before I gave up, the portions were huge.

Sounds lovely Loretta darlin' - but just ask Hazel and Jean here on the forum whom I know personally just what an appetite I do have.

And of course loads of proper thick dark home made gravy.
Well in the end we actually had crisply grilled slices of belly pork, huge baked spud each and baked beans yesterday and am now about to put the beef in the oven.
