Day Four - Culinary Exploration 2

No morning should start without some serious baking. Today, the class voted on chocolate brownie cupcakes with chocolate fudge icing.

Lunch today was a portable picnic lunch with Muffulletta, Sunny Sweet Potato Salad and Coleslaw with Spiced Parsley Mayonnaise. We grilled up the sausages from Meating on Queen. We tasted each one, we tried Chicken with Sun Dried Tomato, Turkey Sausage, Jerk Pork Sausage and Hot Ecuadorian Sausage. They were all fabulous and I highly recommend a visit to pick some up.  Grilling sausages from George's Butcher shop

Lots of grilled vegetables go inside our Mufulletta. Grilled Eggplant

After our veritable feast of a lunch we went Geocaching. Today we were searching for the Zhong Hua Men Archway Geocache  It didn’t take too long to achieve success.
Then we headed into chinatown to do a Scavenger Hunt. The grocery store was air conditioned, it also had a very unusual array of items….frozen turtles?

While we waited for the breads to bake we kept ourselves busy carving vegetables. We have some very very creative chefs!
