Another unexpected bday gift..
I was invited to a cooking workshop by Shaggyfish to be conducted by Chef Eric last nite.
As i was the first participant to arrive, i saw many participants, mostly teachers & lecturers, arriving later and making payments at the door which i wasnt aware of.
Curious, i asked & was told it had been taken care of.
The cooking workshop was another bday gift for me.
Cool! Thank you maam! Another surprise from my HC ex-neighbour..a term i have not used for the longest time...haha...xie xie!
Anyway, the workshop gave us the opportunity to learn to prepare a 3 course gourmet meal.
As the appetiser the savoury crepes Au Breton.
Its a crepes recipe with smoked salmon, capers and onions condiments served with homemade sour cream.
Next, the main dish was Singapore's signature dish transformed into a unique blend of Asian meets West, the Spaghetti with Chilli Crab Sauce. The fresh crabmeat in the sauce, with a generous mix of Haybee and that specially-flown spicy fermented bean paste all added on to this mouth watering dish.
Simple superb!
Finally, for dessert, the much awaited Molten Lava Chocolate Cake with Vanila Ice cream & Strawberries. Personally i am NOT a chocolate person, & with the Bittersweet chocolate used in this dessert..i ended up eating the ice cream & the starwberries only but I am pretty sure all chocolate lovers would love this cake.
Well..after cleaning up..i received another surprise..a friend who was in the same workshop had bought a bday cake for me & another May baby..a little embarrasing tho..hehe..cutting a bday cake exactly 14 days after my birthday ..thank u all the same...
