Come Dine With Me - Third Dinner

The third dinner at Lynne’s house was quite different as I knew a few weeks ago that we were going to be treated to a menu of Thai food. As Thai is one of my favourites I knew I was in for a treat and was really looking forward to tasting her Thai starter and the green curry for the main.

I was quite pleased as again on this occasion I was getting lift to Lynne’s house and so I could have some of the sparkling wine that was offered before we had the first course. I was really impressed with her house as well and loved all of the furniture that she had in her front room. We didn’t get to snoop around the rest of the house until later in between the first and second course.

The conversation over dinner was again interesting and we talked about Lynne’s time in New Zealand and how she meet her husband whilst she was working over there. Katie was also telling us all about the recent bout of flu that she had been getting over and told all of us that she was now finally getting better.

We discussed an important decision that Claire was making concerning her job and we all encouraged her to make the right one for her own sanity. We also got the opportunity to take a look at Lynne’s wedding photos which were absolutely gorgeous.

Lynne’s menu was:

Thai style fishcakes and Thai spring rolls with sweet chilli dipping sauce

Thai chicken green curry with Jasmine rice

Vanilla cheesecake with Mango fool

We managed to have a wander around Lynne’s house in between the first and second course and we were all impressed with the bathroom and the wonderful job that they had made of all of the rooms.

So now as we get nearer to the end of the Come Dine with Me series it is very close on who will actually win the competition and I am getting really excited about doing the reveal at the end. The last dinner will be taking place at my house on Tuesday 1 December so keep checking the blog to see who will win.

What the girls thought…

“It was absolutely gorgeous and it is my favourite so far. All the food was perfect everything was made from scratch and the fishcakes were amazing. She used really authentic ingredients as well. Enjoyed all of it and she put in a huge amount of effort.”

“The food was very nice and I have not had Thai food before so it was quite an experience. The main course was just spicy enough without being overpowering. Very nice hostess and very nice house too and been a really great evening.”

“The starter was beautiful and was of a very high standard. The main too was really good and she put in a lot of effort to make an amazing curry. The dessert was definitely the best bit for me and really topped off the whole menu..”
