On Saturday I hosted a Birthday Cooking Class for a lovely lady - Rita and her wonderful family and friends. We took an amazing culinary journey around the World preparing a 7 course menu featuring dishes from several countries - Crab and Prawn Salad with a homemade Thousand Island Dressing, Crispy Lamb Sambusas from Tanzania, Macadamia nut and Coconut-Crusted Chicken Drums which is Hawaii Inspired, Mussels in Blue Cheese Sauce from Belgium, Crispy Oven-baked Yucca Fries from South and Central America, Sauteed Carrots with Toasted Almonds and Drizzled with Honey and Vanilla Cardamon Ice Cream with Chocolate Pasta then drizzled with Dark Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar which is Italy and India inspired.......... and yes, I said chocolate pasta. It was all absolutely delicious!!! Join me for a culinary journey around the World through pictures.
