End of the September marks the end of summer for most people, but to us in Kuching, to my friends, it marked the end of a horrendous heatwave. We were blessed with beautiful weather that evening, with a thunderstorm earlier in the afternoon which in turn brought a cool and breezy evening, which was perfect for the potluck hosted by our hosts Linda and her husband Khoon at their recently acquired and renovated apartment.
Linda must have been really busy that day because she definitely cooked up a storm for the lot of us. My friends and myself included, enjoyed a lovely dinner ranging from braised pork knuckle, chicken kacangma and chicken curry cooked by the hostess herself. I myself made a Thai green papaya salad and our photographer, of whom took the above pictures, cooked up some pretty awesome mixed vegetables.
Linda even had time to whip up a non-bake Oreo Cheesecake. I reckon her Oreo Cheesecake is better than those made by the more commercialized bakeries because she took into account our health needs and the cheese filling wasn't as sweet as its store-bought compatriots.
Dinner was wonderful and of course, swift because none of us wanted to waste any more time; alcohol does not wait. Like any other good party, the night ended up with us drinking a lot of beers and 2 bottles of vodka with Ribena. No, we didn't get that drunk. Infact, we were so sober that we were still able to go out to the balcony overlooking the south side of the city of Kuching and cam-whored a little bit with the girls.
See? Still sober. Told you so. xoxo
