I can now go back to my regular eating habits as I've appeased the New Year gods Happy New Year to you, cp, and the lovely Mrs cp. There's nothing I'd enjoy more that meeting up and having a meal and a drink...or two! Hopefully soon!! 13 hours ago, Ddladner said: cp, Happy New Year to you and Mrs. cp! I wish you many blessings in the coming year. Your New Year's Day dinner sounds splendid, and in our virtual world of friendship, I graciously accept your invitation. Consider me there! Looking forward to seeing what delectable meals you will be preparing throughout the year. You are more than welcome to our humble cottage in the country ladies. A happy new year to you both and here's to many a delight in the kitchen. A cold start today so we are braving it and having a round of golf, well at least it is sunny. A breakfast of poached egg on wholemeal toast and blueberries and yogurt should see us through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For our west side friends, Cottage pie is a dish of minced beef,carrots and tommy puree, slow cooked with creamy mashed potatoes on top.I also add Parmesan on the top but it is optional Meat & Potato pie has a pastry topping and is a completely different beast altogether. You do like Tuna and chips? A combination that to be honest doesn't float my boat. How exactly do you do your Tuna? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi_Zep_Fan87 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Had sea food for the first time at an office party, recently. It was at a Kebab cum pub type of joint. It is called The Big Pitcher http://www.bigpitcher.co.in/ For the record, my dad is highly allergic to sea food. I was terrified to try the prawn kebab, for obvious reasons. Then in went in a few beers (I can sure as hell, out drink any man in my office ) and in spite of being pretty drunk, I can tell you that the prawn kebab and chicken kebab were absolutely lip smacking. The lamb kebab was just OK. The taste was great, but manually deboning each and every freakin' piece of kebab was messy and annoying! I highly recommend The Big Pitcher to anyone visiting Bangalore, who wants to go out and have some good culinary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life's too short to skip the glorious food part. I find that if you just watch your portions, and you have a general leaning toward healthier, balanced meals, you can eat pretty much anything. Exercise helps, too, which I know you do a lot of. Nothing wrong with veggies, but if you are craving your own hand, time to rethink your strategy, haha! Do not miss out on life!!

I have lived in several different places, but always near the ocean, and seafood has always been a large part of my diet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
