Orange cake with chocolate drizzle

     These days I am drifting through a Korean drama (& music) haze…or riding the Hallyu wave as it better known as (cowabunga!!). The aspect that has caught my attention the most…well after the eye candy of course…is the mouthwatering food! Oh sweet lord the food!!! I’m dying to try some black bean noodles like right now. My intake of Chinese food (that is all that I can get my hands on) has increased exponentially since I started watching the dramas. I think the saddest part is that even if I can make the dream trip to Seoul I will not be able to enjoy the food that I have become familiar with…why you ask? Sigh! Coz I’m a vegetarian. Am I forever destined to not be able to enjoy world cuisine due to my preference??? Hmm maybe not. Not if the ladies of Eat Out @ Home have something to say about it 🙂

Orange & Basil Flavored Water

 

Ravioli with veg in sun dried tomato sauce

 

Caramelized onion and cheese fondue cups

 

     When I was invited to sample the menu right off the bat I was sure I was headed for some North Indian cuisine ever since I heard the words “home made vegetarian food”. Isn’t that the image that pops into your head when you hear that? Some good ole Dal, Paneer, Aloo and the likes…standard stuff. But I was in for quite a treat! Let me first share with you the items on the menu – Carrot orange soup with crostini and coriander butter, Fungus udon salad, Burmese ginger salad, Sushi, Leek fennel roesti with cheesy sauce, Caramelized onion and cheese fondue cups, Ravioli with veg in sun dried tomato sauce, Sesame tofu with soba noodles in spicy peanut sauce, Sabz galauti, Cous cous verde, Roti jala with malay curry, Orange cake with chocolate drizzle, Grilled peaches and apple roses with cream, Caramel almond sandesh and Orange & Basil Flavored Water.
