My Weekend Lunch Gathering

5:25 pm - August 10, 2008 | Posted By Linda in Linda's Daily Stuff

It’s been almost a month since I invited friends over for a proper lunch gathering, because it had been virtually impossible to fix a free weekend without raking my schedule upside down.

But I was so glad to have Master Wugui and gang over yesterday, because nothing beats the looks of satisfaction when they tucked into my “Rawsome” homemade lunch prepared with love and joy ;)

You see, it was their first taste of raw foods, even though they’ve heard about it for some time. We also had a Mrs in the house who is into her 3rd trimester, and man, was I elated to see her devouring dish after dish of my raw gourmet creations! Comments that came were nothing short of “Wow! Awesome! and Unbelievable!”.

The climatic finale was “Who would not wanna eat this and be healthy??!!” and “If we can have this food available all day, we can go raw right now!”

For that afternoon, I won their hearts with a little love, effort, and creativity. Based on their love for noodles, pasta and local hawker fare, I created a lunch menu of:

Miso Ramen, Alfredo Fettuccine, Italian Stuffed Mushrooms, and finished with a Dragon Fruit Smoothie, Chocolate Cake, Asian styled “Ondeh Oneh” plus “Peanut Butter” Ice-Cream Cake!

The moment I saw their amazed looks as they ate, and the squeaky clean plates afterwards, I knew that all my efforts to spoil them were worth it!

So, I just needed to share a bit of my joy with you. Some of the pictures have been uploaded into the slideshow on the right, enjoy!
