Day 54: how to make the most of an indulgence (and then some!)...

THANK GOODNESS i hadn't used my indulgence this week yet.  earlier this morning, i got an invite to go to a reception party at the 5-star Intercontinental Hotel. little did i know that i would be on temptation island, cashing in my indulgence in the most decadent and excessive of manners :)

all i can say is, that while i did gorge, at least the portions were ALL mini bite sizes, even for canapes. also,  i managed to NOT have even a sip of alcohol.  other than that though: foie gras, lobster, sashimi, caviar, beef tartare, wagyu steak, macaroons, choc cake, cheesecake... nothing was spared !

yes, that is Chef Nobu in the background...

 from Alain Ducasse's Spoon:

desserts, anyone??

 only half bites though :)
