We were married in August 2007..and to celebrate, we dined at one of the best restaurants in Vancouver. We are basically two Chinese-Astrology Piggies who LOVE good eats and love learning how to make what we love... nothin' wrong wit'at eh?
My favorite things to cook
Basically, anything we like, we learn how to make so we don't have to always eat out. I try my best to use what is freshest and what is seasonal, so that we make the most of what is available throughout the year. I love all types of Asian food, and Andrew likes meat, meat and more meat...
My favorite family cooking traditions
Comfort food.. in all its' wonderful and tasty variations.
My cooking triumphs
Donna: Dumplings, dumplings, dumplings... labour intensive yet highly tasty.. Andrew: Deep-fried Chicken Cordon Bleu.. an experiment that surpassed even his expectations! I am also dabbling now in preserves and jellies..
My cooking tragedies
I can't bake yet... but Andrew did a Bouche De Noel this last xmas... highly delicious.
