30/03/2015: Seafood bibimbap - Lime Orange, Victoria http://limeorange.co.uk/ We visited this restaurant with Mark's sister Claire and cousin Liz on Claire's recommendation. I was sold as soon as I saw the menu, but was going to have some trouble choosing until Claire strongly recommended we try the seafood bibimbap. We all ordered the same and … Continue reading A quarter of the way through and Easter Sunday

23/03/2015: Penne with sweet potato and prosciutto - Alex Frampton's A Cook's Book of Pasta: Carbonara, Marinara, Napolitana http://www.amazon.com/Carbonara-Marinara-Napolitana-Cooks-Pasta/dp/1740457552 This was one of those dishes that you come across in a book and wonder whether they just came to their fridge one day and whacked a bunch of leftovers together and thought "hey that's not too … Continue reading Nearly a quarter of the way through…

09/03/2015: Yakisoba - packet recipe http://www.japancentre.com/items/itsuki-pre-cooked-yakisoba-noodles-with-sauce What do you think of when you hear "yakisoba"? Probably a dish you've eaten in Wagamama or a similar place? I had yakisoba when I was in Japan for lunch and have just craved it so much since I've been back. Yakisoba is pretty much a staple in Japan perhaps … Continue reading 10 weeks done!

06/03/15: Moo Phad Khing - Hi Bangkok, Wimbledon http://www.hibangkok.co.uk/menu/ Lizi flew back from Japan today so we went with the easy option of a take-away once home from the airport. After two weeks of Japanese food it seemed like a good idea to switch to Thai for the evening. We went for a Moo Phad … Continue reading Our 5th Anniversary

01/03/15: Nikujaga http://norecipes.com/recipe/nikujaga-recipe/ I found a recipe online to match Lizi's home cooked Nikujaga meal from last week. I used Irish beef strips for the meat, which were really easy to fry and  stayed nice and tender. Couldn't go wrong with the flavours involved, and particularly enjoyed mixing my side of rice with the left … Continue reading Mark home alone again – week 2

This ended up being a bit more of a challenge as … Continue reading Mark home alone again – week 1

15/02/15: BBQ chicken with beans – Reader's Digest's Healthy One-Dish Cooking http://www.amazon.co.uk/Healthy-One-Dish-Cooking-All-One/dp/027644406X This was really tasty and a great throw-it-all-in-the-pot meal, but it was definitely a different version of BBQ. The chicken turned out beautifully tender though. 16/02/15: Quinoa, carrot, and leek patties – Eat Well 101 blog http://www.eatwell101.com/quinoa-and-leek-patties-recipe Lizi – O.M.G. what a disaster! Totally … Continue reading 50 Days!

It was only when we were chatting with some friends yesterday that we realised this delay in posting may actually make you guys think we'd given up - but … Continue reading Long time no post!!
