Well i must begin with today, another visit to Milton Keynes. This time a trip to Jamie's Italian. The food was delicious. I have left with the opinion that i must return again soon, so they have done a good job.
To start the 'World's Best Olives' served on ice with a garlic dip and crispy tortilla's. The main the 'SOUTH-COAST FRITTO MISTO' was fresh seafood of scallops, mussels, prawns and white fish served with a tarter sauce and then an order of 'FUNKY CHIPS' (chips with garlic and parsley). This was a calorific dish which left a small person like myself uncomfortably full. However, the sight of the plate with the breaded seafood lit up my eyes and caused a friend from a table of six people to say 'Tori - your's is the dish i'm jealous of' - Good choice me!
I have done well this week, Saturday a trip to Jimmy's grill. What is Jimmy's ? The epitome' of easy eating. A buffet of around the world foods. Thai, Indian,Chinese, Italian, Japanese. The food is good and the choice is fantastic but after popadom's, sushi and some thai food you get ever so full. It's definitely a quantity over quality place. Although that might be unfair as i did enjoy my food and was very fresh. A place that's fun to attend with family and friends, although if your choice of flavour is a curry, then go to an Indian. If your choice is for all of your favourites, then head to Jimmy's.
The skill i need to learn this year is to eat well, eat healthy and cook my way through some of my cook books.
Less carbs would be a good start. So a chicken pesto pasta with the a drizzle of basil infused olive oil and some succulent mushrooms will be delicious. I need to keep my portion small and not eat any extra's whilst cooking. That's a bad habit of mine.
Keep you posted.
