Less people than the number we predicted turned up for this edition cooking club that took place at our flat. But the party turned out to be really enjoyable for everyone who came, in particular with the flow of Mojito. Among five of us, we finished two bottles of Havana Rum and half bottle of Gin. At the end of the party, I allowed everyone watch our wedding video and make fun of it. I could not help laughing at it either but that is another story.
This is actually more of a post-Thai trip party for us who went there for the last Christmas holiday. Jane made a Tom Yum Soup which opened up everyone's appetite. The spices and sourness from the soup activated all the taste buds in our mouth. I made three Thai dishes, Red curry beef with vegetables (less spicy), red curry beef (more spicy) and Curry vegetable with shrimp which were also popular that settle down every one's stomach, Graham brought a tropical fruit salad as dessert which carried our good memories back to the tropical land packed with fresh fruit. All of us happened to be in Thailand this Christmas although it was half way planned. We were at different places in Thailand but we had some really unforgettable relaxing memories despite the fact that some of us were sick there and could not really do much. When David and I were in Bangkok, I insisted going to a supermarket because I believe that to know what people's real life is like, market, in this case supermarket is the best place to go. That is the place I got the Thai pastes including Tom Yum Paste, Red curry Paste and so on, Lemongrass, and kaffir limes (two bags of them), and the most important fish source ( the most famous popular kind in Thailand at moment). With all these ingredients, our Thai cooking club almost sounds authentic. Really looking forward to the next cooking club gathering.
