Sobremsa





Our friends Tom, Miguel and Robert joined us for dinner. It was a beautiful warm night and we ate outside. We talked and talked after dinner invoking a beautiful Spanish word: sobremesa: "It literally translates to 'over table,' and it refers to the time that people spend chatting and enjoying each other at the table once they have finished a meal". It was a wonderful night.

This is a great Thai Melon Salad from the City Cuisine Cookbook by Feniger and Milliken. Everyone really liked the salad. We left out the dried shrimp. It turned out that our chilies weren’t as hot as we expected, so try the chilies as you cook. They all vary in hotness. You can find the recipe on our blog of: August 12, 2012.

We served Sautéed Salmon and Umami Garlic Noodles. The Garlic Noodles are always a hit. The recipe can be found on our blog of: April 14, 2019. Click the date to get the recipe.
