Easter Long Weekend Food Fest pt.2

So continuing on from my last post, the dinner came to an end with a super duper cream cake made by me:P
Before i go on about my desert, i did have a good time with the mains of the meal. I realised that not a great deal of people like organic chicken here, including myself. But according to my fellow Chinese friends and family members 99% of chicken in China is organic.

I tried some organic chicken that nig
ht and unlike normal chicken we have here, it didn't just 'break down' after a few chews. I guess 'bouncy' is the best word for describing the sort of meat i was chewing on. It was like the meat not wanting to give up and kept refusing to break. It was not tough though.. If you've had pearls like as in pearl milk tea before, you'll know what i mean by bouncy.

And also, its really hard to describe the taste of chicken! Like when a lot of Chinese people say "oh dear, this beef has such strong beef flavours".!? WHAT exactly are the beef flavours??
I finally realised what they were trying to say, the organic chicken really did have stronger chicken flavours. Like when you eat chicken you know not only because you got it from KFC, you actually know because you're familiar with the "chicken taste". Except the organic chicken had a lot more of that chicken taste.

So----back on track lets take a look at the cream cake i made for the night!
This was the mixed berry cream cake i made for the family! Very simple but very delicious! Fresh not frozen berries and fresh cream and cognac:)

I could have rolled it up and made it into a roll cake but cutting it the way it is now was waaay more exciting and fun to eat!
