March Tiffin Club

The February Tiffin Club was a flurry of heart shaped food and red coloured food, from the most scrumptious heart shaped pot pies, to stuffed red peppers, to hummus decorated with red paprika, to red pepper dressed chicken salad, to succulent prawns in a thai sweet chilli dressing. Desserts were equally red and heart shaped, but to die for, with chocolate dipped strawberries leading the way! However, the crowning glory was the jug of red strawberry Daquiris that held centre stage for a brief spell, before it was emptied!!! The Tiffin Club ladies were a very happy bunch as they left that day!! Thank you to everyone who contributed so creatively, and a special thanks to the host - Gwen for opening up her home. I would also like to mention the Courtyard by Marriott for the incredible demonstrations every alternate month - they have been informative, entertaining, very, very well organised and delicious!!

The March Tiffin Club will be on THURSDAY 15TH MARCH at 10.30am at LISA FELDMANN'S HOME.21/10 First Street,Kasturi Ranga RoadAlwarpetChennai 600 018
The theme is APPETISERS. If you would like to come to this event and would like more information about booking your place please call me as soon as you can as we are limited to 15 ladies participating. Sejal Wasani98840 52575
