Christmas Dinner 2007

We had so much food during Christmas lunch. So I decided to cook a simple dinner, minced Beef pie and a carrot muffin. I will post the recipe for the minced beef pie once I get the chance to measure the ingredients. I promise the presentation will be much better as well.

Christmas Lunch 2007

We had our Christmas lunch at the Grand Hyatt hotel, Jakarta. It was the best Christmas ever. The first plate had salmon with spinach stuffing, beef stew, fried rice, broccoli cooked in garlic and salmon ball. Second plate had sliced turkey with cranberry sauce, sliced ham with apple sauce, mashed potato in garlic and salmon. The third plate had a fresh oysters and salmon sushi. The roast beef was well done; it was juicy and just plain perfect. The last photo had tiramisu, black forest, lemon cheesecake and other to die for desserts.

Patrick's Birthday CAKES

My husband celebrated his birthday 2 days ago. We had a buffet lunch at Ritz Carlton hotel. Food is fantastic; there are lots of choices from Mongolian, Chinese, and Italian, western, Indonesian and Japanese food. A happy birthday song was played all over the place and then there came the cheesecake with strawberry on top and nuts on the side with candles of course. The staff along with a musketeer once again sung a happy birthday song.

After dinner he blew the candles of his second birthday cake. I bought this vanilla and chocolate ice cream cake a day before his birthday. I had it delivered at our home.

Before the night was over another cake came. It came from his office; it was another cheesecake with variety of fruits on the top with greetings on it. The bag and the box of the cake says Four Seasons hotel, it was obviously bought there.

Well, I had to invite kids in our house to eat the cakes. It was way too much for the 3 of us.
