Food Glorious Food....
Last night the 3 of us went to the Mongolie Grill for no more than the reason they have a 50% discount offer on.
Interesting concept for a restaurant, you collect a bowl and fill it with whatever you want from a selection of about 20 ingredients from a Harvester esq salad cart, everything from various vegetables to a wide selection of meat and seafood are available - almost everything you could think to put in a stir fry.
The finaly choice is which sauce(s) to pour over the smorgasboard of flavours you have just concocted.
You pass this bowl to one of the 3 chefs in the 'kitchen' (a single large circular hot frying plate which can cook 12 meals at a time), who weigh your bowl, give you a ticket, and cook it there and then in front of you.
You're charged by the weight (with the 50% discount its 8 GBP/KG) which was quite reasonabe considering my bowl was a protein feast of Seafood, Pork (various flavours) Chicken, Beef (2 varieties) and Venison - all crowned with a few vegetables and cashew nuts...
Afterwards we wondered to a bar and played some pool before catching the bus back.
The snow has continued to fall on the mountain - but the resort level stuff is fast melting.
The blackcomb mountain opens permentantly this friday,
SK is working this thursday, but should get the weekend off to Snowboard - her neck is feeling better.
Ben is working, but is hopefully getting sunday off so he's really egar to get up the hill - his hangover is also feeling better
I don't start work till next monday - so I'm loathed by both :o)
Breakfast time for me
