@motri:

Croquembouche

Such decadent deliciousness…

Anyway, we go for the usual 'Bacalao a la Vìzcaina' (Codfish Vizcayne) and maybe some potato salad...Dessert? We would explode after stuffing ourselves with so much codfish....

Between Xmas and New Year...we'll still be eating the rest of the codfish...then on New Year's Eve...more codfish.

Btw, did I ever mention how much I like codfish?

Wow! That's an awesome menu! Are you in Manila? And would you be accepting an extra guest? :cheesy2:

We usually have the traditional ham, queso de bola, BBQ, and pancit for Christmas. And more of the same for New Year- maybe some Adobo and Leche Flan as well. Our menu is very pinoy.

Eridanos- I've always been wanting to try Cod- never had the chance yet. Sounds like you enjoy it. ;D

@Eridanos: what does codfish taste like? i dont think i've tried it before. Is the red in the pics i googled tomato sauce?
the croquembouche is actually a holiday dare from a friend of mine. since i wasnt originally planning not to do desserts this time around since i'll be cooking a lot.

@brianboru72: thank you. i do try and do something special on holidays when i'm in charge of the menu. yup we'll be in manila. sadly stranger danger LOL
mmmm queso de bola…...
