Hello @Shaz51 and I had curried prawns for the Friday Night Feast. All the best to you and have a pleasant weekend. Bimby2.

Anyone for Kyogashi (Japanese sweets) to finish up? Or are they too pretty to eat?

That sounds nice @Bimby2 

@eth, I love the Bonzia ( is that how you spell it 

[Smc]

Maybe a Bubble Tea to wash it all down?

They're really popular in China too, but apparently the Chinese were originally inspired by Japanese drinks. I'll have a Matcha one thanks. 🙂

@Smc  I'd have to go for the lilac lotus flower one!

Do you mean the miniature trees @Shaz51? Me too.  Bonsai I think.

Some of them are 100s of years old - a truly amazing art form.

Yes bonsia looks awesome @eth

That green cheesecake @Smc ammm

@Shaz51, the cheesecake is @eth's contribution. Looks very yum.

@eth, I've tried lotus root, lotus seed paste, lotus flour noodles and rice steamed on a lotus leaf. All very yummy, so I imagine lotus flowers would be fantastic.
