I was amazed that neither of my family had ever had shallot pancake, ome of my all time favourites (if done right).
The dumplings were sensational, as always and so were the desserts (fancy fried ice cream for me!)
Everyone had a good time, but me most of all, as getting Mum out of the house is becoming trickier...not in ability but will. David Jones Flower Show and Mother's Day....big tick. Now to find some other reason to lure her out of the house....

Oh, mother´s day....since my young years always a problem for me as it has become a commercial event...also my mother is a bit ...what should I say - complicated, ego-centric...but I took her out for a theatre evening...and she was pleased...

I have to say, I'm not a big fan of this celebration that is problematic for so many.
Deleteyum Shallot pancake - that's something I should try.
ReplyDelete...I'm glad that you were successful honoring you mum. Thanks for hosting and I wish you a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear you and your mum had a good time. I made my mum's day special too and she appreciated it - though I try to do something special for her on other days of the year too. The food looks good! Thanks for hosting, Lydia. Have a great new week. (Nick from MAP)

ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥
I love a shallot pancake - but you're right, there's a big difference between a great one and an ok one. I introduced my mother to them when she came over to have lunch with me while I was down working in Chatswood last year.
ReplyDeleteYour meal looks amazing. I confess I have never had shallot pancakes either!

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to celebrate your Mom. I am on the list of people who have never had a shallot pancake. I will definitely be changing that!
