Mouth orgasm

So Engage turned 4 about 2 weeks into my internship, and so we all went to Myoga to celebrate.
(Spoiler: Myoga gives you mouth orgasms)


We did the 6-course tasting menu with copious amounts of wine. Each course has about 5 options each, so so great. My choices were easy because of veggieness, but how others would choose I have no idea.


My 6 courses were:
Mouth tickler: Goats cheese and jalapeno samoosa with mango salsa and coriander
Salad: Haloumi and asparagus salad with poached egg and aged balsamic red pepper
Pasta: Potato gnocchi with smoked pumpkin, sage butter, roasted seeds and truffle cream
Cleanser: Lemon lime sorbet
Main: Wild mushroom risotto with asparagus and pecorino shavings
Sweet: Sticky banoffi pudding with glazed rum banana and vanilla bean ice cream


Possibly the best meal I have ever had.

Rad week

So since I no longer do anything with my life, I've been arbing around way more often than usual. Done cool things with cool people...

Cheesecake and lemon meringue with Jess at High Tea in Wynberg. Go there.

 Nom nom nom
 Funny face :)



Isochronous and Kidofdoom at Kirstenbosch

How pretty are these girls? Seriously now.





Everything else was not documented...but included very old men in Long Street, green melon martinis, spoonage, Community, a ridiculous amount of time spent baking, series, cuddles, swimming, Black Swan, chats, youtube, etc etc

Yeah I'm a domestic goddess, no big deal

So a couple of weeks ago I decided to have a dinner party for my girls. This was brought on by a massive craving for 'Cameron pasta', the awesome mushroom and bacon pasta that a certain Mr Fraser has mastered. So here is the evidence of said domesticity...

 
Puff pastry rounds with rocket, camembert, cranberry sauce and balsamic reduction for starters

Cameron pasta (mushroom, bacon, shallot and garlic pasta) for mains

Then my favourite, pavlova with lemon curd cream and berries for dessert.

  
 
Lovely people :)
