I'm dreaming of Afghanistan



Yesterday ,Absolute Gourmet had guests for the movie screening called Afghan Chronicles by Dominic Morisette , I think its a great one as I've always been interested/intrigued by anything Afghanistan, and rebuilding it.
The canapes menu was handpicked by pleasant host- The Canadian High Commission.

Smoked salmon on lime and dill mayo
Roasted tomatoes and goat's cheese
Curry coriander
Chocolate cakes


Throughout my entire cooking career, I had cooked for several international singers and movie stars , but yesterday was something else.I got back into cooking few months ago , and it was nice when people said to you that you still got it especially from your client.

Anyway

I am glad that everything went well.He autographed the poster and I will definitely hang it on my wall .

First gig at Alliance Francaise


It was an art exhibition by a renowned Malaysian Artist Zainal Abidin Musa, He has his own blog.I really enjoyed this one although my oven burst while doing THIS due to the kitchen's power failure to supply an adequate amount that my beloved oven requires( I will show and tell the story of my oven on Sayangku Azura soon when I got some time.By the way, it went well and Mr Zainal was happy with the job Absolute Gourmet had done.





I seldom take pictures of functions I've done for one reason I was always busy in the kitchen on this one, I just squeeze some time in between running to the kitchen and the hall and giving my namecards to guests while trying to snap some picture to put on this blog that had been put on hold many times.
Tables in the making...Menu that evening were canapes, I made Mushrooms and herb boursin ,Pepper and pesto in addition to asian ones and my homemade sweets or you may call it "French pastries" if you like :)

It all happened in a sudden , and I had made myself The Director of Absolute Gourmet.Menus agreed and lease signed , here we are Inside The Alliance Francaise on Lorong Gurney Kuala Lumpur.It is near to Celcom HQ,Police Training Centre,Multimedia College and The Ministry of Defense.Before we started pour operationI already had orders coming and that makes me feel good,Most of the clients are my old clients from those days before I had left for The UK again.I suppose they are happy with my services. :)
