Elma’s Brasserie, Meherchend Market

The first lunch in the new year was at Elma’s in Meherchend Market. We went there to have their special New Year’s Lunch menu, but ended up ordering a la carte, which turned out even better. The highlight of the meal was Salmon fillet en croute (puff pastry).

The salmon was fatty (read tasty) and the puff pastry crust was perfectly crisp. The cranberry sauce and hollandaise sauce complemented the Salmon flavour well!

If you are fish person, then don’t miss this at Elma’s.

Merry Christmas folks!!

This deceptively simple looking dish is traditional Sri Lankan food - Kiribath (Coconut milk Rice) and Katta Sambal (dry tuna pounded with shallots, red chilli and lemon juice). If you are open to coconut milk and dry fish, then this is a must try. So yummy 😋!! Thanks to a cousin who is visiting us, we are getting to enjoy these!!

This year too got my gifts early, thanks to my Santa sans paunch or hair, @rgokul.

These wonderful Christmas cakes were packed last night at Ganesh Bakery in Tuticorin and were in Delhi, some 3000kms away, this evening. Whatay logistics. Take a bow @rgokul.

These cakes used to define the festivities as a child and waft of their goodness throws opens the flood gates of memories!!

Little Yunnan, Beijing

Day 6 lunch in Beijing was at this beautiful small restaurant called Little Yunnan.

Top to down : House brewed rice wine, was cool and sweet and much needed later; shredded chicken salad, which was simple looking but packed a punch with the chilli heat and citrus orange; roasted goat cheese served with sugar and chilli salt; beef stew, which was very good in taste and quantity;roasted mushrooms with chilli salt; sweet and sticky pineapple rice; fried chicken tossed in herbs and spices.
