Unlike my husband, I like spaghetti carbonara. The best carbonara that I've ever tasted was Sofitel Hotel's (now called Centara Hotel) in Hua-Hin, Thailand. I worked there for more than 2 years in the past that's why I can say I was an expert of their carbonara :)
Anyway, I only attempted to co

Christmas Eve dinner was easy last year. Easy or I should say easier because I only prepared a 3-meal course rather than the usual 5. This is what we had for the 2nd course (main).
I was lucky enough to have found a 4-piece pack of beautiful Argentine beef for this Gordon Ramsey recipe. Got i

Just as my title says, moi has been bitten by the sushi bug! Not really my husband's favorite food that is why in our 9 years of being married, only now that I start to make them. Quite expensive making it for one, I told myself.
But since I also got tired of buyi

This isn't an old photo but freshly shot just a few hours ago.
They were meant as 'extras' for my Christmas dinner dessert last December. But unfotunately I was not able to use them because when it was time to serve my dessert (Bailey's Tiramisu) I was already tired to do plate presentation. First and second courses took much of my time and so we just went straight devouring our dessert.
This is for La.Pi.S. This weekend's theme is Chocolate.
I hope this is okay, Ces?

I was lucky enough to have found a 4-piece pack of beautiful Argentine beef for this Gordon Ramsey recipe. Got it from his 'Secrets' book p. 73. By the way, this book has got star awards from users (see Amazon.com)
