#FESTIVEFOODS : Being a Chef...I cook a lot of 'wow' foods everyday for my guests, friends and families...and for me...hmmm I prefer homemade simple foods!

When you are a chef...cooking foods everyday for everyone around whole year round, you just can't eat such high class foods yourself...

Most of the people working as chefs have this problem actually and we all prefer to have something simple to eat!

A normal festive diner for others can last more than 2 to 3 hours...while a chef eat all in less than 10 minutes! Lol! And most of the time...we eat while working!!!

Since couple of days now, since the festive season has been activated, I have been cooking a lot of 'festive foods' and served to my guests...it's kinda normal for me!

Today I want to show you a bit on the foods that I personally prefer to eat...be it on festive days or any day of the year!

Beef / Chicken / Fish Biryani!

Biryani!

Though Biryani will be present on many tables of Mauritians, for me it can be considered as a simple normal food these days..

Once each week I have to eat a plate of Biryani...it can be with beef or fish or chicken!

Pizzas

Oh...my wife cooks very delicious pizzas...

I prefer homemade than buying from outside! I can eat pizza anytime - Be it for lunch or diner...even tea time! Who doesn't love pizza anyway!?

---

Baked chicken with potatoes and Mozzarella

This is another recipe perfected by my wife...

I discovered this dish thanks to her and I fell in love with it on the first bite itself!

---

Noodles with chicken, broth and tomato salad!

This has to be my favorite...actually I have couple of favorites!!!

---

Mixed salad...prepared with love and care please!!!

When a salad is prepared like the one below, I will definitely be enjoying a big bowl with a nice vinaigrette!

---

On the sweet side...

Here I prefer to eat once again...homemade Madeleines or pain perdue!!!

Pain perdue dusted with cinnamon sugar!

---

---

And from time to time...specially as we are in deep summer these days...a magnum is perfect!

So here we are friends...couple of my 'festive foods' which I will be eating for this season!

I once again will mention it : I will be cooking a lot of amazing foods for my guests etc...but I prefer eating simple and easy foods like I showed in the photos above!

We chefs can create magical foods for people...but for us, we prefer to keep it simple!

Thanks a lot for reading and supporting my blog!
Have a wonderful day/evening ahead!
