There’s no doubt a good BBQ with good company signifies the start of summer. Let the good times roll.

Dark Chocolate Souffles are great to get a few friends together and spend a quiet evening at home.

Finally go to try Justin’s famous lasagna. It was great! But this primitive can opener is questionable…

Now that I’m back in Waterloo, I’m lucky to have a variety of “International” cuisine on account of my roomates’ different cooking styles. This is a Malaysian dish Koda cooked. I forgot the name of it but it has vegetables, medicinal herbs and ribs in it. Yummy!

瑞士雞翼 – A Canto Restaurant classic. No…Swiss Chicken Wings are not actually related to Switzerland. I tried making them at home with the wings I got from the whole chickens the week before. Surprisingly, the look and taste of it was pretty accurate. I’m quite happy with the result.

One day I found 2 whole chickens at Longo’s for $11. Eleven Dollars! So I brought that home and cut it all up. Of course I used the carcass to make some chicken stock. So my fridge and freezer was full of chicken and I decided I wanted roast chicken. I didn’t have a whole chicken anymore so I just took all the legs and thighs, put them over a bed of potatoes, mushrooms and carrots, and then seasoned all around.

Just steak and potatoes…

Cajun Catfish on Basil Couscous. Triple Potato Vegetable Soup.

Went to St. Lawrence Market with Farran and Rachel with the sole purpose of eating peameal bacon on a bun. We ended up walking around and got inspired by the fresh produce. So we purchased some items and went back to my place to cook. Pictured above is only a part of what we had: garlic baguette with baked brie, roasted garlic and roasted red peppers; steamed acorn squash topped with salt, pepper and cheese; fresh pasta with italian sausage tomato sauce.

Warm tortilla and black beans; eggs scrambled in homemade enchilada sauce; salsa and grated swiss cheese.
