Father's Day 2011

Prepared lunch and dinner for my parents yesterday as part of the once a year Father’s Day celebration. It seems to be a tradition for me to cook on Mother’s and Father’s Day these years. Smile.

My dad laughed happily when I told him I am going to bring him to different countries on his-day, tsk tsk.

We went Korea for lunch on Father's Day. We had Kim Chi as the side dish...

And our main was sweet and spicy Tteokbokki …

Dad and mum had tried the Chinese style of stir fried rice cake but not the Korean style. Nonetheless, I am glad that it was well accepted by my parents, especially my dad who likes to eat chewy foods such as gummies, mochi and etc.

Thank you Y for the SOS from Singapore. Without you, the stir fried Korean rice cake would definitely be a failed attempt *winks

As for dinner, we went Western. Hehe.

For appetizer, we had the Ultimate Mushroom Bruschetta (Jamie Oliver’s style)…

For main, we had Pan Fried Salmon with Mashed Cauliflower and Greens Salad…

And, how can we not have something sweet to make the celebration sweeter? ;P

Mum was the first to try on my first-ever-attempt Apple Crumble Pie; our dessert that night. Her feedback was, the tart was good and the crust was better than the bakeries we have at our small little town before she started to complain that the crust was not thick enough, haha. I am glad that the dessert turned out well. I was quite worried that the crust would be as hard as a rock *phew, relieved.

So, we had the Apple Crumble Pie with ice cream to make our meal complete. Dad likes it with ice-cream, and he asked for a bit more ice cream to go with the apple pie as the ice-cream served was too little as you can tell from the photo, haha. (p/s: Of coz, I didn’t make the ice-cream ;P).

Happy Father’s Day my dearest daddy. I am counting my blessings to have you as my super-daddy. Love you lots *Hugs and kisses* <3
