A Blessed Christmas to all. May this Christmas be a meaningful season for you. Season of feasting? 😉 Haha.
Thought that most Christmas lunches would be of turkey, ham and beef. Hence, wanted to try out something different. Went with Dino and Eds to a mussel place in Vivocity. Rather crowded.
Was quite hungry, so i started with soup. Tried the chef’s recommendation – Chowderful Mussel Soup. Nothing much to rave about, its just soup with a mussel sticking out.
3 of us shared 3 different types of mussels.
Steamed Mussels. Tasty with white wine sauce. And i think all of us are addicted to the alcohol in it! 😉
Sambal ones. This has lots of garlic.
Baked Cheese ones. This actually goes well with the sambal sauce from above.
It was quite a musselful lunch. I quite like the steam ones best.
Happy Holidays to all!
momo – This is really something new to me … having “Big Head” for christmas lunch? All looks good to me … yummy!Merry Christmas!
woah, looks real good. How’s the price like? And are the mussles fresh (no strange ‘fishy’ smell)?
Mussels are darn cheap here.. unfortunately i donch have a good recipe.. except to bake them in butter.. which i find too rich.. 🙁
Funny when I was there for lunch some weeks back, there was absolutely no mussels in their set lunch menu. Kind of wondered what sort of mussel speciality they had. 🙂
steamed mussels with white wine is simple and yet yummy. So easy to make them at home too. =)
