ON THE MENU....

Dinner at your kids' house is always a treat. When one of them is a chef, a little something extra is added. Along with the greatest company ever, you get a really pretty plate of really amazing food.

Night before last was no exception....


Just in case you can't see it clearly enough, here's a close up (excuse my shadow please?!...I was in a hurry to snap the photo and begin eating!)


Here you have a mixed grill.....a tender fillet topped with  some shitake mushroom goodness, chicken marinated in some wonderful Asian marinade that he created....topped with a fresh mango salsa.....and a tender lamb chop, also marinated in something Asian and wonderful that he created....topped with a curry sauce.....also his creation.   Add to it the veggie, a yummy risotto cake and the whole grain toast topped with an avocado spread that was amazing (it's his wife's favorite so he made it especially for her...aaaw!) and you have a delicious dinner that we all enjoyed.  Even with this wonderful food that was served, the company was the best part.  And to top off the whole wonderful evening with the kids, we were able to walk home from their house.  You just can't beat that!

Thanks for a wonderful evening,

    It was incredible!

    @Mary....that would be awesome if he could do that. Sometimes I think I would like to do that and other times....well....:0)

    Our SIL didn't attend culinary school. He has just received training at his jobs and because he's gifted in that area, he has moved right up the ladder.
