this's a long overdue birthday celebration for your mil. her birthday's in august where all the immediate families were on vacation. so you proposed a belated celebration. the original idea was to have a family dimsum but this turned out to be a big feast. you made this wicked chocolate slice and since it's a birthday celebration, you decided to sprinkle the chinese character longevity on the chocolate slice ^^
the "boys" were playing where the ladies were helping in the kitchen
the parade of food prepared by your mil. most of the dishes are prepared and cooked by her, she loves to cook and whenever she cooks, it can feed the village.
the only dish you cooked for the night, the malaysian sambal sotong tumis, the one and only spicy dish among the table of cantonese food.
the birthday cake cutting ceremony...
some desserts/sweets on the side...the last mini mooncakes to serve this year...
as you get hold of some purple okinawan sweet potatoes, you decided to make the malaysian style donuts. these were quite well received as well...
it's a fun filled and relaxing evening, all the guests return home with a bloated stomach, your mil is happy as well with the golden opportunity for her to showcase her cooking and of course for the gifts she received.
