I Feel Like Chicken Tonight ...

Wanting to try something new with the leftover chicken thighs (from bulk again),  I decided to separate the skin from the meat and prepare them separately. The skin was oven crisped with salt & pepper, while the meat was pan fried. There was something missing, so I added some colour by incorporating cheesy vegetable mash & balsamic red wine reduction to enhance the flavour.   


Grilled Chicken layered with crispy skin & vegetable mash

The food actually looks bigger than it really is, it is meant as an appetizer portion. After taking the pic, I basically dumped a bowl of rice on top and dug in.

A Day At The Park ...

It was a beautiful day last weekend so I decided to scroll into the Greenwich Park and become a tourist. Besides touring the astronomy building and walking on the Zero time line (more pics to come later), I was also able to get some sunbathing in. Unfortunately the sunlight did not have much affect on my rather pale skin.


This is one of my favourite pics I've taken so far and it's not photoshopped either, lol. Basically it is one of the many walkways in the Park, and vaguely reminds me of Central Park for some reason. It was cloudy at that moment and improved the quality of the shot.
