Special birthday dinner, well worth the effort. Absolutely delicious.





Banana Caramel Pudding
This didn't last long. 


Dad's Tagliatelli 
He can only remember there were mushrooms, prosciutto and ricotta in it. 


Purple Carrot Salad with San Choy Bow Sausages


Aloys Beer Can Chicken with Smoked Chardonnay Salted Cous Cous
Believe it or not there is a beer can in this chicken, lid removed and beer emptied (by Dad) and refilled with chardonnay, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and lemon. It was then smoked using chardonnay soaked hickory. Mum made a cous cous dish with smoked salt - the smoke coming from old french oak chardonnay barrels. Guess what we drank? Yep Howard Park 2010 and a Bloodwood "Schubert" 2005. Two outstanding wines.
