Re: Our Guest this week - Niksik

are you guys going to send it over to Niksik? if yes, can I be your next guest please?

Re: Our Guest this week - Niksik

Ok, here goes:

On entrance, the butler, Mr Maroush, will take Niksik's coat and escort her to the lounge. A selection of mocktails will be served and my daughters will perform a modern rendition of "chitti aye hai" whilst i'm running around like a headless chicken in the kitchen, pretending to know what i'm doing.

Amuse bouche
Grilled scallops with red chilli, parmesan and thyme butter

Starter
Blue cheese and potato soup with garlic butter wafers

Main Course
Cannon of lamb, wild mushroom couscous, gremolata, soused tomatoes

Cheeseboard
Camembert, reblochon, asiago, roquefort and chevre
Grapes, apples, tomatoes, kalamata olives, pickled artichoke hearts, figs, roasted walnuts and macadamias
Sourdough bread, cracked black pepper biscuits, water biscuits

Dessert
Valrhona chocolate fondant, popcorn and raspberries, creme fraiche sorbet

And if you have any room left, i'd get Mr Maroush to make you a cup of doodh patti....then we can play with the Wii!!! :D

Re: Our Guest this week - Niksik

GTG … you little lazy bugger :omg: yeah we will make you our next guest :lifey: only if you host nikki nicely this time around :sahar02:

Maroushie :hayaa: dunno about niksik but to me , the best part of the entire dawat was the little ones performing chitti ayi hai :omg: .. I love your cheeseboard :yummy:

Re: Our Guest this week - Niksik

oh myyyyyyyyyyyy gawd :hayaa:

My mind is swimming in images of all of your foods :rotato:

Keep them coming. This is going to be soooo hard. Thank you all :bb:

Re: Our Guest this week - Niksik

Maroush, is your butler handsome :wink:?

Re: Our Guest this week - Niksik

Nikki…I will not just end the meal with chai. Oh no, not I. :snooty:

I, being the proper hostess that I am, and ALWAYS keeping your comfort…and lady-like reputation in mind…will serve you very beneficial amuse bouches…in the form of Tums and Gas-x tablets …nestled in delicate fluted paper cups (the kind that house trouffles)…at the end of my elaborate 3-course meal (which I have yet to share). Think of them as little palette cleansers…or life-savers (pun on the hard candy) if you will.

It’s hard to find such thoughtfulness everywhere. :nahi:
**

***** Mind you…I’ll even turn a blind eye to you stealing my silverware. I’ll pretend it never happened. It’ll be our little secret. Oh the things I do for you, Nikki…the things I do for you. :hinna:

^That’s right people…y’all got competition!!! :hoonh:
