Chinese food

duck in peking sauce

salt and pepper chicken

Our regular Saturday night meal; yummy chinese food! For me it signifies no cooking. I know for a person allocated as a contributor to a food blog seems weird not akin to cooking to write about food. Hey, I like to eat though so that makes me qualified. I know what tastes nice and well not so nice. So here goes my first official restaurant review; well actually based on 3 dishes from their menu.

It's one of our local Chinese restaurant and the peking duck, salt and pepper chicken together with their fried rice is simply divine! The food is not oily or too salty but instead they provide value for money dishes and tastes beautiful. I would give it an 8/10

Lamb Sausage Curry

curry

My husband doesn't cook often, actually it's a rarity. So when he said a couple of weeks ago "I feel like curry" (his specialty) I was so excited to take time off and put my feet up while he cooks us a meal for a change.

Let me digress and tell you the catalyst for this once in a blue moon mood for hubby to cook. We were walking around Woolworths while food shopping and this lady in the middle of nowhere in between the aisles, cooking on a hot plate were these yummy lamb sausages. As usual, hubby and the kids had a sample and totally loved the taste. So like all Woolworths tactics the sample converted to a sale and with it came the idea of "I feel like curry". Lucky for me I love curry and I love my husband's cooking. I wish he would cook more often though; well don't we all wish that.
