Churros

Being the fan that I am of +foodporn , I find myself constantly overwhelmed by pictures of mouth watering, chocolate covered, or cinnamon sprinkled churros. After much resistance I decided to try them out.

Platters

Hello food lovers,
I  haven't posted here in a while, i was debating with myself about whether or not to continue with this blog. The thing about blogging is that if you love it, you shouldn't give up so easily after a few bumps especially if you are passionate about the topic you blog about. I am more than passionate about food, have been since a pretty young age.

Back to business,
My two very close friends ( Emma and Gift) and i love to make lists of food places we would love to try. The only problem is that Emma and i are so indecisive that it takes us ages just to choose what we want to eat or drink. To solve our little problem last August, we decided to order platters. Platters are always far from my mind when i go out to eat but I have come to realize that I might just be a platter girl. I love meals where you get a variety of food and flavors, exactly what a platter delivers.

We visited The Orange Tree public house for the first time and my favorite restaurant, Mugg & Bean. I must add, we went to The orange Tree Public house on a Sunday afternoon and they had a braai and live music situation going on. My kind of scene.

It is very difficult for me to chose which platter i liked most from the two places because they both had their own unique flavors.

Creamy vegetable stir fry

Ever since my sister started cooking with coconut milk/cream, I have been trying to look for ways to add it to my dishes; in cakes, smoothies, rice and now a stir fry. I like to think that I have this super intelligent gift when it comes to recipes. I watch something being prepared once, and I never forget it, I don't even have to write it down. The only downside is that I have to do a lot of improvising and adjusting but that part is pretty fun.

Lazy smoothie

 

 

 

We all know that smoothies are extra yummy and nutritious when fresh ingredients are used to make them. I call this one the lazy smoothie because its a combination of fresh fruit and juice in a box.
