Just reading about it made me so happy. <br />I've heard before about Chicken Tikka masala being very popular in the UK. But you might find it surprising that here in India, we're not such huge fans of the dish. In fact in South India, from where I come, I doubt many have ever tasted it. But yes, chillies are the predominant spice in Indian cuisine.Anita Kumarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10902981126493850669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-42299596322751447662011-11-15T19:29:08.218+00:002011-11-15T19:29:08.218+00:00I want Jane to blow some of her good luck dust thi...I want Jane to blow some of her good luck dust this way.

You have good taste ...Sounds like a fabulous trip. <br />You have good taste in wine - I have yet to find a white to beat Marlborough's Sauvignon Blancs. I spent a very happy day cycling round the vineyards of Marlborough with a friend a few years ago, tasting their products. The ride back to our hostel at the end of the day was a little wobbly :).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-27588184978633544372011-11-15T12:32:56.378+00:002011-11-15T12:32:56.378+00:00What a great time you had.

I'm always amazed by Michael Caines.<br /><br />Must admit we aren't watching the pro Master Chef and we were a bit bored of watching the celebs frantically trying to peel potatoes or clean shrimps in time to actually get down to some cooking. A real chef would have someone to do that for him. It really meant that often the cooking bit was spoiled due to lack of time.<br /><br />We have seen John Torode do a cookery demo and he was really great keeping everyone entertain with his banter.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-49248545800573510142011-11-15T11:08:53.860+00:002011-11-15T11:08:53.860+00:00Well that sounds like a brilliant couple of days. ...Well that sounds like a brilliant couple of days.

I'm currently hooked onto the Junior Masterchef competition that's ongoing at the moment....they're down to the last eight. These kids are amazing ~ http://www.masterchef.com.au/home.htm<br /><br />How special to be able to see all the celebrities up close and personal, watch the cooking demo's, shop and sampling all the goodies. <br />I agree with you about Jackson's Estate Sauvignon Blanc, from Marlborough. It's one of my favourites too, although I'm steadily working through all the wines to find the best one...hic! <br />Congrats to Jane for winning and loved seeing and hearing all the inside info ;DNeesiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629847485174945501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-20546718326420418862011-11-14T20:17:45.590+00:002011-11-14T20:17:45.590+00:00Hi VG: Jane is not just lucky - she's skillful...Hi VG: Jane is not just lucky - she's skillful too! Actually, she runs a business which is all about competitions (The Competition Grapevine - see links in my sidebar) so you would expect her to be quite good at such things!
