Booking a cookery course this early in the morning was not a good idea!

I was woken up at 9:30 by the phone ringing in the room saying that Kelly was waiting downstairs for me in the hostel lobby. Whoops, I should have set my alarm, but just completely forgot. I quickly got dressed and headed out.

First off we went to the local market and picked up a few ingredients, we were pre-warned and some people left the market, but when we were taken through to the meat section there was a possibility that there might have been dogs being skinned or even in cages waiting to be killed. Luckily I didn't see any of this , but I must admit I was quite curious, is this wrong?

We cooked egg wrapped dumplings, steamed chicken with mushrooms, stir fried pork with vegetables and oyster sauce, duck with pickled ginger and chilli and green vegetables with garlic. Once we had finished cooking all this food, we sat down at around lunchtime and got to eat it. Mmmm!

After all this cooking, the hangover started to kick in, so headed back to the hostel and had a couple of hours sleep in the afternoon and then caught up with writing this blog as I have been running a few days late. I just need to find some internet now so that I can upload it.
