#sharedmeal

Lunch tray to share. I love listening to them talk about who wants what etc. Sure, sometimes there’s a fight. But we’ve talked about not taking the “last” of something without making sure everyone has had some. And they’re generally really great about it. . That said, I wouldn’t do this if anyone was acting extra hangry or having a rough time. . Wasn’t the healthiest of trays, but that’s okay...Used up berries and a banana, leftover bacon and the last of some pepperoni (M looooves them), cheese stick, a snack mix my husband added to our last grocery pick up, and 2 chocolate eggs. So funny the first thing to go was their vitamins. . #muffintinmeals #muffintinlunch #sharedmeal #toddlerlunch https://www.instagram.com/p/B_GELqal_ub/?igshid=17psd53cal87f

What a pleasure to finally meet and share a Malaysian Nonya Lunch at Bunga Raya with Lot Eight’s olive oil legend Nalini Baruch and her husband Colin. Fresh from their success with their Yuzu Pressed Olive Oil at the New Zealand Food Awards, Nalini & Colin finally found time to meet up. We started with the Ling Collars Vermicelli Soup, lit with preserved mustard greens and plum, followed by Hainanese Chicken Ric and the very Nonya Assam Fish (snapper). The curry special is the Nonya Curry Kapitan. We had to have it. Aunty Jennifer choose the Nonya Four Treasures, which included round beans, brinjal and asparagus as it's the season. The vegetables are cooked with a hint of belacan. There's a lot to be said of a shared meal, especially amongst friends. #sharedmeal #nonyacuisine #bungarayarestaurant #newlynn #lingcollarsvermicellisoup #hainanesechickenrice #assamfish #currykapitan #fourtreasurevegetables #sharedmeal #loteight #loteightoliveoils #nzfoodawards2018 (at Bunga Raya Restaurant) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpEcFJ6h962/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=q5mpgo6v3urc
