Christmas Menu

This year, we decided to stay away from the usual dishes being prepared for Christmas. There were no spaghetti, ham, chicken, or queso de bola from our Noche Buena menu. But for sure, it was equally special nonetheless.

Scrumptiously Sinful Seafood. A blissful mix of fresh shrimps, crabs, and mussels in a rich blend of sweet and chilli sauce. This seafood dish, especially with those delightful crabs, is best eaten using your bare hands.

Loco for Luscious Liempo. Marinated overnight in a specially prepared seasoning, these choice cuts of pork liempo are grilled to perfection by our grill master. Dip it in my wife's secretly prepared magic sauce and prepare yourself to taste the explosion of flavors in your mouth.

Savory Steamed Shrimp. A very plain dish requiring the simplest of preparations. The secret lies in the freshness of the seafood being prepared.

Chef's Choice Chicken Salad. Indulge yourselves in a labor of love by my Mom. Simply delicious, you wouldn't mind eating the same stuff day after day, even after Christmas day.

Sweet Multiple Orgasm. The finale for every meal is the best part, especially for my wife. And since this is the Christmas meal, it deserves to have an overload of dessert. Your choice of fruit salad, buko pandan, cookies, crinkles, grapes, persimmons, ponkans, and mini-ponkans (with a name that sounds like kitkat).

Just writing it made my mouth watery all over again. Makes me wish it was Noche Buena again tonight.

I'm sure my wife wishes the same coz she didn't really enjoy the food that night. Of all the days in the year that she would suffer from an extreme case of colds (making her taste buds practically useless), why did it have to fall on Christmas eve? Tsk, tsk, tsk...
