Grilled Salmon
2017年12月22日, ペルー ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
Grilled salmon rubbed with spices before BBQing. Salmon is very rich and a smaller portion may have sufficed. Delicious anyway.

We had salmon the other day so I substituted fillet steak.

Potatoes and Pineapple Brazilian Style

Maria and the girls join us for a BBQ this evening. Steaks and the usual fare accompanied by a side of Brazilian potato and pea salad and followed by a Brazilian pineapple dessert. Dimitra questionedもっと詳しく
旅行者(Written by Mercina) My Opinion on the dinner served. Well, it was quite lovely, the steaks were nice and tender and the potatoes expertly grilled on the BBQ. The salad was fresh and delicious, nothing like any salad I've had before. The pineapple dessert was a revelation. As a fan of consuming some cool pineapple chunks in the evenings, this dessert was exciting and tasty. A great way to end the meal. Oh, and Poppy's cupcakes were good too I guess.
