You should have cake now!Went to the Oriental Supermarket and above they have a large Chinese restaurant that serves a very large menu and caters for gluten free in a way that lets you know they understand what that means. I was like a pig in the proverbial!
First time I’ve been able to eat dim sum in a restaurant. What a treat!
I had three appetisers and was excited so ate a fair amount before taking pics!
Steamed prawn dim sum.

It was all excellent, I was absolutely stuffed, considering the portions were ‘appetisers’ they were large.
I will be back soon, maybe tomorrow
It was busy, there was about 80 people in there and that was a Wednesday at 12.30pm which is early for lunch.
Mr SSOAP and I were one of only two lilly white couples in there, everyone else was Asian which I took as a very good sign.
I expected service to be slow as there didn’t seem to be many staff but it was fast and the food was piping hot, burn your mouth hot, so even though they were busy none of the food was sitting around on the pass
The manager came to ask if everything was ok and I was so happy I blurted out “I feel like it’s my birthday”
What is your dough recipe? I think I'm having a mid-life dough crisis. Either that or my socks might be on inside out.

That's why you make homemade tomato soup! I've got a recipe I was thinking about making soon with a fancy grilled cheese.

Asian marinated pork tenderloin with Craig's noodle salad. The noodles were a bit spicy. It's been so long since we've made it that we forgot the spice needs to be cut down a bit.

I don’t quite understand?
No pic, but we had the rest of the chicken noodle soup, a side salad, and one of MrsT’s favorite sandwiches…a grilled/toasted (by which I mean pan-fried) PBJ.

Sorry, meant to add with fresh tomatoes.
That sounds really great!It was all excellent, I was absolutely stuffed, considering the portions were ‘appetisers’ they were large.

I could eat dim sum all day long.
Today I grabbed a slightly tired-looking chunk of cabbage from the fridge and made a bucketful of coleslaw - with celery leaves in it!
Then I decided I wanted hummus, so into the processor went a can of chickpeas, lime juice, garlic, tahini, olive oil and lots of love
( only to discover that the "pita bread" I thought I had in the fridge was actually a packet of grotty flour tortillas
). Never mind; they worked.
