Family dinner

The project team got together tonight for a family dinner. We had Antonio (Chile), Julia (Germany), Lyudmila (Russia), Shu (Japan), Asad and Faiza (Bahrain / Pakistan), Vijai (US / India) and me. It was a 4 course banquet of Russian soup (thanks Lyudmila), my chicken and vegetable pasta (3 batches, one for the carnivores, one for the vegetarians and one for the semi-vegetarians). This was an authentic Australian dish as I cooked it while drinking beer (although it was American beer). In the end I was disappointed as it ended up looking pre-chewed (I can promise it was not team). Thanks for the vote of confidence Shu by going back for seconds.


This was followed by homemade* pumpkin pie with ice cream. It was amazing, although I am not sure what it did to Antonio as this is how it was served.


From there, it was coffee al a Julia with German biscuits provided by our boss’ boss, Emma (the token pohm).

It was a great night which I hope we can do again soon (although I would suggest someone else cook if we want it to look palatable).



*: This in no way means to represent the pie to be homemade (unless the store that it was bought from made it at someone’s home)
