Sweet pumpkin, bell peppers and drumsticks for the kids
we were invited over for BBQ at Baba Brian's place
this was right after our awesome burpylicious lunch at Les Amis....something like 4 hours after our long 3-hours luncheon.

Baba Brian's son.....one of the twin.
he was serving food to all the guests....
"Auntie, do you want some chicken wings?"
>.<
"dearie....please call me jie jie OK???"

and she is the other Twin. Yup the Boy and the Girl are fraternal twin. They are only 7 years old and already so tall!!!!! How I've watched they grew over the years from lil toddlers till now.

*GASP*
OMG...I'm really an Auntie now
T_T

the amber was really hot and it's burning her delicate hand.....

and the Auntie-in-Denial helped lil gal to do it....
luckily I didn't burn her marshmallows. Only my pride was burnt....I'm an AUNTIE!!!
GAH!!!! *pulls hair*

wicked really yummy super awesome Beef Rendang cooked by Baba Brian
he's the king of baba nyonya cuisine...and how I missed his Kerang Curry!!!!

everyone was rationing the portion bcoz it's obviously not enuff for us :P
the meat was juicy and succulent....rendang was extremely flavourful.

One of the best beef rendang I've ever had in a long long long time....really comfort food...everyone whacked a huge plate of warm rice with these juicy succulent spicy meat. aaaAAAaaaaaaa...........

Si Fu Lawrence chopped up his roast pork and topped it with more spicy sambal with BBQ-ed squid...everything was so yummy....
crispy fatty roast pork belly, on top of juicy fresh Charcoal grilled squid douzed with spicy sambal sauce...who would have thought???? Oh damn gimme more rice!!!!

with all these happenning food goin around...nobody bothered to have the usual BBQ fair of grilled chicken and prawns and pumpkins. Apparently these are for the kiddos...not the adults!!! Now I'll show u wat's adults food about.

 grilled juicy steak!!!!! served with its own jus

 BBQ sting ray then then douzed with more sambal sauce :P

charcoal grilled Bone Marrow served with bread toasted on the chargoal fire as well
:))))))))))) so sinful!!!!!

Baba Brian here fanning the charcoal fire ferociously like a satay man to boil water on the pan....-_-"
yeah boiling water for JS to cook pasta...
I dunno how to fan like a satay man....I only know how to "fan and satay" at work tee hee hee.
while Si Fu Lawrence was also bz manning the station. Very out-back-ish.

JS was preparing the fish roe.....freshly flown in from Japan...I dunno wat he was up to but whatever he cooks Monkey eats...

did u actually cook with that bottle of corked Richebourg?
we didn't wanna waste it and brought it back hahahahahahaha. I think they just douze the meat with it at the end????

the final result of fish roe pasta with crunchy ebi and crispy seaweed
trying to emulate another chef huh? Hahahaha very modern french japanese style....guess who?

Grilled Portobello mushrooms with cheese were for the kids
kiddo food has got no chillis!!!

Grilled sweet corn and japanese sweet potatoes are alwiz staple at BBQ
:)

I don't know we managed to eat after the huge lunch and then BBQ. Hahahahahahaha. We were raising our white flags that evening....all of us :P But I must say the Beef Rendang was exceptional. No matter how stuffed I am, will still go for it :)))))

Thank you Baba Brian and family for hosting us :))))
