The Culinary Fiesta - Main Course

Day 2

After the late night/early morning adventure, we only to manage to wake up at around lunch time. So, it was time to prepare for lunch, and of course the master chef for the Oriental Feast is Raymond aka Duck Nemesis. As the name suggest, the main highlight for lunch is Ra's signature dish, "The Duck Soup", which is bursting with the essence of Ra's live friend.

The Oriental Feast

Perhaps we overestimated our appetite... finishing the feast proved to be a challenge for some. But Kudos to the Master Chef Ra for whipping us a 'home cooked' meal at the Chalet, using the limited kitchen wares.
Maybe it was Ra's misfortune, just as we were enjoying lunch, the Aloha personnel decide to replace the old pots with brand new shiny ones.

After lunch, it was mahjong/Taboo/Scrabble time and the last attempt at Volleyball. Of course, Ra had many golden moment that brought the group lots of laughter.

Soon it was time for dinner, we eat to live, we live to eat.... it is endless gulping of food for us.
The Western Cuisine Team lead by our Resident Blondie, Aaron whipped up a palate satisfying pasta, amidst using the brand new pots.

Of course, Aaron forte lies in dessert, so it is a must for him to satisfy his own craving as well as our sweet tooth.
