Day 11: Xmas - The Big Day
The Big day has come and the presents are all gathered under the Xmas tree to make everyone happy for a whole new year! But before festivities start, there is a long preparation to go through and a long long meal to digest! Here is how it started for us:
.
Amuse-Bouches & Moet Chandon
(brought by our special guest Qin Mama)
~
Salmon Verine Covered with Caviar
~
Foie Gras on Toasted Whole Wheat Bread & Onion Marmelade
~
Snails in Shallot Sauce
~
Scallops in their Marine Sauce
~
Roasted Capon
~
French Beans Bundle
~
Cheese
~
Frozen Desert
.
After that came the presents and the dog was the first to get his! Everybody got surprises and more, some until the last minutes! Melodie got a computer, Thibaud got a trip to a ski resort, my father got a nice watch, my mother got a wrist chain and a Hermes bag, and our two guests were also well-treated by Xmas father! Here are some random pictures of that nice evening...
