Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Sesame Prawn Toast and Satay Sticks

Harlow Chinese School Cooking Course – Sesame Prawn Toast and Satay Sticks

Posted on by Jupiter

Dann and I absolutely have loved the last few cooking classes we attended at the Harlow Chinese School! This was the last cooking course for the school year, so we were excited to learn how to make some Sesame Prawn Toast and Satay Sticks – and there were some surprise side dishes that we got to have as well. This cooking course is really casual with a big focus on fun and exploring new foods. Sesame Prawn Toast and Chicken Satay Sticks are really classic party food in England, so it was fun to make our own.

Lunch at Gilpin Spice - pan-Asian food

Lunch at Gilpin Spice – pan-Asian food

Posted on by Jupiter

While on our anniversary in the Lakes, we always are looking for fun food to try. We both really enjoy Asian food, so on the more rainy day, we decided to go for a big lunch at Gilpin Spice, which is a restaurant attached to a hotel. You do not need to be staying at the hotel to eat here and can easily walk in and enjoy the menu that they have on offer. When we went, at about 1pm, it wasn’t too busy at all. The venue itself had bar seating that looked straight into the kitchen, as well as a bunch of tables and booths. We opted to watch the chefs cook our food! They do have a short menu at Gilpin Spice, but everything smells and tastes fantastic.

Baking with Wright’s Baking Orange Cake Mix

[Ad- gifted product] We have been a fan of Wright’s Baking since this Orange Cake Mix. It was one of the first things we picked up at our local Tesco. Orange is something Kai absolutely loves and having some sort of new muffins for breakfast is always on our list of things to do. We tend to do a lot of muffins with this mix, but Amelia choose to mix it up and make an Orange Cake Loaf to have with breakfast.

We felt really summery this week, with a lot of different dishes that might have been more work then they were worth! But, the food was filling and delicious, which is all that really matters in the end. We had quite a few fun dishes from Breakfast for Dinner to zucchini shaped into roses with cheese in the middle. Let’s get into this week’s meals.

Flesh & Buns - Fantastic Japanese Bao Restaurant

Flesh & Buns – Fantastic Japanese Bao Restaurant

Posted on by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Dann and I are really big fans of Japanese food, especially bao buns. Dann actually has tried his hand at creating homemade baos, which turned out delicious. When we were invited to Flesh & Buns, we were instantly excited to try out the boas they had on offer. Flesh & Buns has a few different locations in London, each with a signature dish. We went to Oxford Circus, but ended up splitting a platter so didn’t try the specific items for that location.
