of this our 150 ish days around this, our wonderfull world… of course its a wonderfull world Pete … or is it an all you can drink stupor so far! SNS … if it’s put in front of me it would be rude to say no!!!! We are currently sitting 32000 feet above the ocean heading on a 4 hour flight and then having a 3 hour stopover in Fiji, prior to flighting the final 11 hours to San Fran later this evening.
So 1 bubbles in the lounge before we take off, 1 bubbles in our seats waiting to take off, 2 glasses of Justin Cab Sauv from somewhere in the US with ✈️ food lunch, Ok the US is a big place so a bit more info on the wine list could have been helpful Fiji Airway's! and then after my desert of Fijian Purini it was a fairly generous glass of Hennessy V.S Cognac.
My dear friend Joe, Fiji Airs Cognac may have been bigger but your 30 year old last night was simply superb.
So size doesn't matter!!
After a beautiful dinner last night with Joe & Robbie, a smashing breakfast at Peter & Yvonne this morning, all that was needed for this our first in flight lunch was a Couscous Salad and Pumpernickel roll.
The pudding .. moist … but not to sticky, the anglaise, just runny enough to enhance the pudding but not to flood it or take over, the mousse foam was as light as a feather, with a salty dark smokey flavour that would sit well in any international whisky bar! and as for the roasted pineapple, it was pure bliss, the roasted pineapple added that bitter strength that the sweetness of this dish needed. So my friends thats the start of the food porn in writing … Hot and Steamy … so Pete do you think that the cognac is kicking in then. 😂
