Saturday Christmas Show

12/20/2010

I had a very fun time on Saturday night. We had our office Christmas show (party) at the Lion Hotel in North Adelaide.

I took some very classy pictures.

I didn't get as many as I had hoped, though.

This was our menu. Everything looked good.

I saw the menu in advance, so I had weeks to decide. I finally settled on the honey duck breast.  It tasted a bit like chicken teriyaki. I know that everybody says that strange things taste like chicken, but this really did. I liked it very much.

**If you don't live in Australia, do you notice how the entree is the appetizer?? It took me a while to get used to that.**

As usual, pardon the horrible picture below. I was too busy chatting to play around with the light settings. I also ate a portion of the food before I did anything with the camera. This dish was the moussaka. It seemed like a combination between lasagna and eggplant parmesan. It was good, but nothing to jump for joy about.
Picture
The Christmas pudding was the pinnacle of the entire meal. I loved everything from the baked apple slice on top of the ice cream to the spiced cream in the middle to accompany the rich dark fudge-like cake. Everybody who ordered this dish looked like they wanted to lick their plate.
Picture
That's all for now. I still have to do a post on my visit to the Adelaide Hills from the weekend. I'll try to blog as much as I can this week. We have a couple of dinners and a very early flight on Friday morning, so I have a lot that I have to try to squeeze in before then. Unfortunately, you don't have all day to do things when you work full-time!
