Christmas brunch, The Beach House at the Moana Surfrider Hotel. Very strange. Messed up our reservations (time). Couldn’t get the number of our party correct.
Management sends over a bottle of bubbly to “make-up” for their mistakes.
Turns out, the chef de cuisine is a former “student” of Chefs P and p. He sends over another two bottles of “bubbly”. Some people at the table were very “merry” (there were eight of us).
The Cat said I have to gain weight (kind of drastically dropped after I got the nasal and throat infection).
Mouse Plate I
Sashimi? Check. Smoked Salmon? Check. Salad? Check. Salumi? Check. A happy Mouse, and indirectly, a happy Cat.
Mouse Plate II
The Mouse’s hot selections. An omelet (half portion), some turkey, stuffing, vegetables, and more sashimi.
In walking through the buffet line, their were components from different dishes I had to put together, steamed buns, Chinese style, plum sauce, duck confit (more like kalua duck), and a sliced of seared duck breast.
Duck Slider, Mouse Style
My only regret was I saw the components late, otherwise I would have made more of these sliders.
Desserts were alright, maybe they were not as tempting since we’re still on the mend.
One of the interesting dessert features was a make your own s’mores station.
S’mores Station
I guess to bring out the kid in us.
Enjoy. Eat well.
