It was great home coming to a BBQ family gathering at the Labrador Park. As each family was tasked to prepare some food items, i was especially happy to see all missions accomplished!
This was 4th uncle and 4th aunt vigorously fanning up the charcoal; they were such great fire-starter, not forgetting 4th uncle wife and Nic, my brother ;)
This tray of straw mushrooms with lean pork wrap prepared by Nic and wife was surprisingly very good; without seasonings!
The barbecued Tau Pok by yours truly; though Mum concoct its shrimp paste + lemon juice mixes.
I love the fried bee hoon by our "Bee Hoon Specialist", my eldest Aunt.
Gelatinous Stingray fillet by Mum!
And these giant prawns by 4th uncle! They cost $20 for a kg, were large and scrumptious!
More food was in tonight's menu but my hands were messy with busy barbecuing, serving and eating! Plus, the dark environment isn't all conducive for photo shoots.
There were squids, garlic bread, fish cake, chicken wings, fish otah, satay, sotong balls, sausages and even a big chocolate cake! Boy, i was stuffed!
This was the loving Nic couple who initiated tonight's get-together; thank you! And they were keeping the sweetest secret from us ;) Congratulations!
Zibibbo Rosa by Brown Brothers ($24.55)
We boozed sweet sparkling red wine from Brown Brothers while the young teens had non-alcoholic drink from the Wild Vines, Strawberry White Zinfandel to be exact.
Chilled Ribena blackcurrant syrup drink also, for those who wished to stay sober.
My greatest discovery for the night? Toasting Marshmallows over the bbq fire.
Young cousin taught me the know how; and i spend the rest of the night burning my face, watching the fire. It was fun and delicious stuff that i missed out during school days ;)
We reached home, 12 midnight.
