In an unexpected turn of events, Minette who is usually in Georgia by now, makes a short return to the Twin Cities to receive her son, back fro Japan, where he is stationed with the Navy. Better yet, she extends a last minute invitation to eat sue Filipino food at her house. We can't possibly pass on this opportunity.
As usual at Minette's, we enjoyed great wine, terrific food, and heart warming conversation. The only drawback of the evening and that Buzz had to stay behind and couldn't join us.
Here are a few pics taken before everybody started digging in (yep, I had them wait as I took the pictures).
 |
| Rice noodles with chicken. Filipinos squeeze a little lemon and add a little soy sauce over the noodles. Terrific! |
 |
| Tapas: Marinated and sautéed beef served with fresh tomatoes. |
 |
| Caramelized onions cooked in the drippings from the beef. A perfect toping for the tapas. |
 |
| Home made spring rolls. In my opinion the best item of the day. |
