Farewell dinner for Angeline

We had a really nice dinner to bid our dear friend & fellow foodie Angeline farewell last night. She is on her way to acheiving her dream of becoming a chef - 3 years at the Cordon Bleu institute in Sydney ! Wish I could spare the time & money to go too, but that will have to remain a dream for a while....
We had appetiser of Marks & Spencer frozen salmon rolls - a requirement by our hostess as part of our food tasting adventure. Personally, I found them okay - not exciting but edible & a good option if you are entertaining & have no time to prepare appetisers...not sure about the cost though. Anyway, it was soft enough to prove ideal for my current state of masticating disability. :-)

Thereafter we took turns to show off our culinary abilities - Angeline made a very nice vegetable soup and delicious saltimbocca ( pork rolled with veal ), followed by some great porcini mushroom risotto by Lynette and ending off with tiramisu prepared by your truly ( from Chef Daniela's recipe ).

We had a great time enjoying the food & company & even wore F1 t-shirts for the occasion ( being the first night of the inaugural Night Race in Singapore ), kindly "sponsored" by Angela.
Not being great F1 fans, we were content to watch the practice rounds on the telly.

However, as we were so busy enjoying ourselves, no photos were taken to commemorate the occasion....guess I will have to do that when we meet for the Ferrari party this Sunday at Daniela & Fabio's home !

Watch this space.....
