Food Porn OR Food & Porn?

When I received a dinner invitation for Thursday night, I was sad that I had my weekly meeting and would have to probably miss it. However, as fate would have it, I was told that it would be okay if I showed up later. And that I did, picking up Jason and Teckiee from Mont Kiara, we arrived at the residence of the elusive baker, Fat Boy Bakes (FBB) for a taste of his home cooked food.

As FBB greeted us at the gate, we were led down a flight of stairs; with some stringed colour lights that lit the stairs dimly and to where the others had already gathered. Opening the door, the three of us were greeted warmly by Audrey, Allan & Nigel, Tummythoz & Phitoy, Joe The Stripper Craver, Boo_licious, Lyrical Lemongrass, Precious Pea and Jackson. FBB's wife was also present and both FBB and her were going in and out of the room; preparing food for us throughout the night. Jackson was kind to change his seat to the piano seat which we then both sat on together. That set the stage for the rest of them to pick on us for being lovey dovey "husband & wife"! Ha ha ha...As I looked around, I was in awe of the food laid out before me; complete with a printed menu :-

The rest of the bloggers were nice enough to wait for us before they started with the rest of the food after they had their pizzas. It was also more so for the fact that they waited for us so that we could all take photos of the food before it was "attacked". Love you guys & gals! FBB had saved a pizza for the latecomers, but there weren't any crabmeat on it unlike Precious Pea's post. I'm not complaining, I was so grateful that I was there!

The pesto based pizza crust was nice and being home made, it came with a generous topping. Let's just say, FBB can open a pizza restaurant with this recipe of his!

The salad, was absolutely wonderful and me, being a quail egg fan found each bite so delectable. The dressing was a mixture of balsamic vinegar, olive oil and jam. Who would have known that this would be such a great combination!

The vermicelli pasta with roast duck was absolutely delicious. Done with lovely garnishing with my fave olive oil and roast duck...Jackson and I had seconds (uhh...I think Jackson had a third actually. He he....)

Here you have Jackson and his Big Pieces. We were served with smaller pieces earlier and when those were finished, FBB brought out a plate of these huge pieces of roast pork which got Jackson very excited at the sight of them!) The skin on these pieces were so crispy, it was almost an out of this world experience!

The Chicken and Mushroom Pie was really yummylicious too. With a crust layer that was just right in thickness, the filling was nice and plentiful. What was good about it was that it wasn't starchy or too rich. We totally clean up this dish...leaving no stone unturned and definitely leaving no stray chicken pieces uneaten!

It was then at this time that things turn a turn for more pornish matters. LOL...Ganging up on dear Joe, the lot of us made him unbutton his shirt and bare his chest and nipple to us. Joe, wanting to displace UnkaLeong and his famous abs from cyberspace, did exactly what he was told willingly and found the whole night's experience PRICELESS.

Joe was immediately surrounded and mostly everyone had a field day with their camera. FBB shoved his camera right into Joe's shirt but could not locate anything perky! ROFL! Precious Pea helped me take this pic...as...uh...uh...she was standing at a better angle :o) Joe's got such a smooth chest! It's almost like baby smooth! Well, I believe he was the youngest one there that night (apart from FBB's children!). Sorry, I decided to "touch up" the pic. For those who would like to have a look at the pic before touch up, kindly email me! ;O)

We then turn our attention to Jason aka Luscious Lip Jason (coined by Precious Pea) and made him keep still for us to take a photo of his lips. Ha ha...Us ladies are just having so much fun with the guys!

Eventually, we got back to the food that was still in store for us. Next on the menu were desserts and I had bought Big Apple Donuts to the house as some floggers have not tasted them yet.

Then, FBB brought out his killer food for the night....

The Flourless Chocolate Cake with a molten centre hypnotised me. Eaten warm and with a dollop of fresh cream (based on FBB's recommendation)...I was at the command of this cupcake that was calling out my name. Seriously, it's molten centre of soft flowing chocolate was just so enticing!

The Rum and Raisins Tart was really good too. Each raisin was potent as it has been thoroughly soaked into rum. A must eat dessert for an alcoholic! Ha ha....

Running a bit late and having not enough time for games, we were provided with some after dinner entertainment by Allan & Nigel with a beautiful rendition of "I Know Him So Well", accompanied by talented FBB's wife on the piano.

After that, I was called to perform. Being one with stage fright, I struggled to start and luckily by the time I was just about to, about half of them said their goodbyes and left. Left with a smaller audience, I sang "Through The Eyes Of Love (theme song from Ice Castles). Jackson said I have a heavenly voice...haha....

Well , all good things must come to an end...I left FBB's residence a very happy and full person. All the food was absolutely tasty and I've never eaten so much in a while now. As a matter of fact, I was so full that I was not hungry on Friday; skipping breakfast and lunch! Thanks again, FBB and to your wife for being such great host and hostess. To my fellow bloggers that were there that night, I had a wonderful time and told myself how blessed I am to be in the company of such great company. Looking forward to our next gathering.....

Inside some of us is a thin person struggling to get out, but they can usually be sedated with a few pieces of chocolate cake. ~ Author Unknown
