Follow my blog with Bloglovin A mid-week lunch between work can be great fun, and more so when it is pre-planned and you know where you're heading. However, one thing lead to another, and I got late for this lunch. So I was relieved to see them letting patrons in quite past lunch hours. It was an all day dining apparently! so far so good! I ordered for the Grilled Tenderloin strips and the Mini Lamb sliders. Ok! so let me get this straight the Grilled Tenderloin strips were lip-smacking, and they tasted as good as they look in this picture.

It took me less than 10 minutes to bring this together over a Thursday, and I was over the moon with the final product!

Prep Time: 5 minutes Cooking Time: 30 minutes I often experience pangs for a certain kind of food, ranging from sweet to savory. And then I go about taking care of that need :) So last week I was in much need of satiating my sweet-tooth. Also there were a few guests coming over for dinner that same night, so I thought of a very simple and yet delicious way of going about it.
