living in Taiwan, with food so cheap, means that you eat out every night. most people do not even have a real kitchen in their homes. the studio apartment i'm renting does not. so when i got invited over to cook a meal in my friends' bruce&lilian's kitchen, i was elated. after the meal, we played mahjong. by 7am, i was the only person who was up in the chip count :)
the pictures below are of the evening. over the course of the evening, we had
- pig candy
- cream of brocolli
- bacon wrapped fish (i wish i knew the english name for it), with taro chips and a cabbabe/onion/apple sautee
- honey baked pears with a mixed assortment of nuts
- passion fruit sorbet
- fish broth & taro congee
we had 2 bottles of white wine and a bottle of red. i don't know about the other bottles, but the one i brought was a bottle of Burgundy Chardonnay, a 2007 Rodet from the Mercurey appellation. I really enjoyed it, and I don't usually enjoy Chardonnay!
my camera died half way through the night, so i still have to collect the rest of the pics from lilian.
