Most of the meal was prepared by Nokkie and Ramon. Ping only came home at 7pm so couldn't help out much. For appetizer, we had leek soup. He grind them up with some milk and onion. It is probably something like the one Ping's family had during Ahmah's birthday at Deluxcious although Ping didn't get to be there for that one. Funny thing, leek belongs to the onion family but Ping actually likes the soup. Ramon served it cold but Ping prefers it warm with some French toast.

Another cold appetizer is a Thai dish that took Nok the entire day to prepare. It is tapioca balls filled with pork, 'chai por' (what do we call this in English? What exactly is it anyway? Hehehe...only know how to chiak), cashew nut and some cilantro. This is Ping's favorite dish for the night! Could barely stop putting it into the mouth.

We had quite a unique combination of main dishes. The one Ping liked most was the lamb lasagna prepared by Ramon. Unlike most lasagna, this one has no cheese in it. He made them using buttermilk instead. Besides the lasagna and seafood pizza, we also had roasted duck! That was the surprising one. Ping totally didn't expect Nokkie to get a whole duck. We used to buy the roasted one from an Asian market at Ohio when Ben was still at Ohio.
