Best meals in London

Our sweet, sweet friends, S & V, had us over a couple of times for dinner.  S served up a yummy Thai stir-fry and V went all out with a winter vegetable soup, fresh mackerel from the  fish monger and a German apple pie from scratch…

Then our last meal together we headed to one of their neighborhood joints, for BBQ.  Yes, real BBQ!  As two girls from the South, I can’t tell you how much we miss BBQ.  Those pulled pork sandwiches were tender, authentic and just what these girls needed before heading to Asia.

We can’t thank them enough for the hospitality, awesome company and delicious food!  Miss you guys already!!!

Moon Festival

We celebrated our 2nd Moon Festival this year. Thanks to London’s great Chinatown, we enjoyed a delicious meal with our friend from China who introduced the holiday to us last year.

Creamy tofu with mushrooms…

I’ve always thought I only liked firm tofu, but this stuff was heavenly. We also had some very spicy fish with vegetables…

And a couple other dishes, but by the time they arrived I was too busy eating to worry about photos.

And of course we ended the meal with some moon cakes…

I love, love, love being able to share in holidays with our international friends!
