What Was On Your Menu This Year?

[Acquiesce]

So what did you guys have for christmas lunch/dinner this year?

I have not had a traditional christmas lunch for the past five years, last year it was noodles as usual, this year however i managed a t-bone steak with roast potatoe, chicken and mushroom soup and a huge salad.

What was on the menu for everyone else?

Lunch was noodles with pork and beef balls cooked by the wife at the camp site. The evening was marinated honey, corriander lamb with sauted(sp) potatoes that i made for us and our friends . Its was awsome. :D And loads of beer!

can't remember when I last had a trad Xmas lunch...some years back inna different life. This year I had a cheese, onion and tomato sammich followed by a can of SPC sphagetti...it weren't too bad...did some cooking and put up 2 dozen pickled eggs...waitin' to see what they taste like...

the news of James Brown's death kinda soured my appetite...

Now I'm used to the fairly small portions, little and often, so if I try to eat a large traditional xmas dinner, I wouldn't get past the starter.

Christmas dinner for me was Nam Dtok and I enjoyed it much more than I would have Turkey with all the trimmings

Apart from the usual cold ham & chicken, it was Prawns, Mud Crab and Pavlova... aroi mak!

pavlova! people eat that stuff???

dinner was fondue with variety of nice homemade sauces....4 of them...some curry flavoured one, soy n honey, and 2 others...dont ask me what went into them..my friend did the cooking...i did the tasting and it was all good

served with 2 salads....boiled eggs with gerghin (sp?) or i think thats what it is..and a few other herbs

plus tomatoes and mushroom with lettuce salad. all yummy! is making me crave. dessert was strawberriessssss mmmmmm (but I missed out on that )

[popshirt]

Grilled cheese sandwiches (lots of butter!) a huge green salad and the most fabulous dessert croissant I have ever eaten from St. Etoile bakery at the Emporium ......... a HUGE flaky croissant, covered with dark chocolate and sliced almonds, and filled with something sweet--not sure what but just right--it was awesome!

Eh?. The old and rightly famous (and filthy) khao man gai shops in Pratunam don't really get going until 9PM.

Then try finding a seat................Lovely stuff.
