New Dessert

What do you think of this:

Chocolate mousse with confit pineapples and lime. The Chocolate mousse is from Gordan Ramsey. After extensive research it seemed to me the best recipe.

St Valentins day dinner for 5 couples

My friend Claudia decided to invite 4 other couples for a joint St Valentins dinner. They were all (more or less) from Lain America, and I must say that they had a lot of fun. Check out their entry in the Guest Book .

Philosophy Part 2

Well, finally (things are a bit quiet in this first week of January) some final words on the philosophy of my cooking. Or, to put it more plainly, what I try to do. Take another look at the gallery on chefangus.com. Really, all I am trying to do is to reveal things (things we eat) for what they are. For this reason I am not into “creativity” - new and unusual combinations. As I have said, done by great chefs that can be great. Done by not great chefs (and here I definitely include me) it can be awful and pointless. Some on the people at La Belle Assiette described by food as “Authentic”. I can not think of a better compliment.

Feedback from the last dinner

As I said, they lovede the dinner I did last Friday. After a little prodding via SMS they commented it on the Belle Assiette. Here it is (in French):
Five Stars
"Grace au chef Angus Morison, nous nous rappelons toujours des 60 ans de mon papa. Nous nous sommes vraiment régalés. Tous les plats nous ont agréablement surpris, de l'apéritif avec les gougères ultra légères à la tartes tatin caramélisée... Les quantités étaient et le goût au rendez vous. Je reprendrai et conseillerai ce chef sans hésité."

First Dinner via the "Belle Assiette"

Last Friday I did my first dinner obtained via the Belle Assiette. The first time I cooked for people I I did not know at all. I have to say that they were very nice and that it was a great success, with a round of applause at the end. I did the "Marché" menu. Of course, if you require my services, it would be best if you went directly to my site.

First entry in the Guestbook

My friend Angie (after some delay) has written up in the Guestbook for the meal I did back in novembre (20 covers). Take a look: http://www.chefangus.com/livredor.html . Then tell me if you think she is exagerating a little!
