What's for Dinner, Fri., Dec. 9, 2022
It is an eventful night for us.
First, our long-time friends invited us to a small dinner party. They are the international musician friends I mention now and then. She is an accomplished cook and at one time even owned her own takeout health food store (macrobiotics). Plays French horn; he's a jazz musician and composer. She is cooking Italian food, which will be her own tomato sauce with various items like meatballs, veal, and sausages.
She also mentioned cheese and prosciutto for appetizers. We are taking lobster cannelloni to add to the appetizer plate. We drove to the Portuguese restaurant in Newark this morning to purchase them.
Plus we also bought desserts for everyone from this restaurant. They are the best flan topped with coconut sauce. Here's a pic:

Then later, our friend is returning from Saudi Arabia, so maybe a late-night digestivo with him. He sent me some pics in the middle of the night and I was amazed at how beautiful SA is! Here are two pics, but they are not representative of what he sent me. I chose them because I liked the composition and perspective shown in them.

Leftovers from last night here. Maybe again tomorrow, as I'm not feeling up to eating.
They really do come out great. I posted the recipe on the original dinner thread.
