Good Friends...Spicy Food!

























Last night, Ro showed off his Thai cooking abilities for our friends Nandita, Prateek, Thana, Silva, Leslie and Richard. Ro has not been able to find good, spicy Thai food in Sao Paulo anywhere...and it has frustrated him. So this month, while I was away at the Auto Show, he took it upon himself to learn how to make Thai food. He watched YouTube videos, researched Internet recipes and then began combing the Asian markets in Liberdade to find the right ingredients and cooking utensils. Success!!

Ro put me in charge of the bar, appetizers and dessert. Everything else was his domain. He was sweating up a storm over the wok but he did an amazing job. He made matsaman, pad see ew and pad king. They were all great.

I really missed our big Detroit dining room and its 14-person table last night. Don't you love how the guys and girls just naturally separate when given the opportunity?? We are so lucky to have found such amazing friends here in Sao Paulo.
