Sunny days 🌞 and gelato 🍨 are the perfect co Sunny days 🌞 and gelato 🍨 are the perfect combination, one of my longtime favourite flavours is the Stracciatella it's a delicious mix of milk based gelato and chocolate shavings @passionegelatoyvr

Taste of Anacortes Chowder @vanfishco with Savary Taste of Anacortes Chowder @vanfishco with
Savary & Manila clams, Salt Spring Island mussels, clam nectar, Dungeness crab stock, smoked bacon lardon, brioche croutons, Dungeness crab salad; created by chef @markus_rule and I love his theme. Chef Markus grew up in the Anacortes region and with the abundance of fresh seafood in the area; this is his chowder to give us all a taste of life in the region, and it's brilliant. 

I am honoured to be an ambassador for this National #ChowderChowdown2021 Festival which is on for the month of February! A portion of proceeds from every chowder sold will be donated to the @OceanWiseSeafood program to support oceans that are healthy and flourishing for generations to come. You can try these chowders for dine-in, takeout as well as some for delivery.

To learn more about the festival and the participating restaurants and chowders, visit www.seafood.ocean.org/chowder-festival

Our Indian Takeout @bombaymasalaindiancuisine FEAS Our Indian Takeout @bombaymasalaindiancuisine FEAST to eat at home over a couple of days and nights; delicious curries and other dishes from @chefjasvirsingh kitchen πŸ‘€πŸ‘ŒπŸ˜‹

On the table:

1) Chilli Fish with crispy cod bites lightly battered tossed with bell peppers & onions in a spicy chilli sauce; one of my favourite dishes at this restaurant, thankfully you can get it for takeout upon request.

2) Paneer Pakora with spiced paneer coated with a chickpea flour batter and deep fried, served with their tasty home-made chutney.

3) Tandoori Cauliflower roasted in their tandoor with cauliflower florets coated with garam flour, mustard oil and exotic spices; another favourite, though the presentation when dining-in is better than takeout, looking forward to return for a dining-in experience to enjoy this dish again.

4) Chicken Tikka -chicken breast marinated in yogurt and spices, cooked in the tandoor.

5) Prawns coconut curry King prawns cooked in a unique blend of aromatic spices simmered in a coconut milk based sauce; and it is one of my favourite curries. 

6) Toffu Palak with tofu cooked in a fresh spinach curry tempered with ginger & garlic.

7) Fish Korma - Alaskan cod in a smooth creamy and nutty sauce with the chef's unique blend of spices. This dish is not on the menu, but you can request it. I love the flavours of their korma and it goes so well with the cod. 

8) Lamb Methi with boneless lamb with fenugreek leaves cooked in a special creamy masala sauce

9) Butter Chicken boneless tandoori chicken in a rich buttery tomato sauce infused with aromatic spices finished with a touch of cream. My first time trying this dish at this restaurant, it was so flavourful, I loved dipping the Paratha into the sauce. 

10) Aloo Baingan potatoes and eggplant cooked in a fresh onion-tomato sauce and freshly ground spices; another first time trying this dish, and I loved it.

11) Peas Pilau Basmati rice cooked with turmeric and cumin tossed with green peas & brown onions

12) Lachedar Paratha Multi-layered whole wheat flakey bread, baked in tandoor;

13) Peshwari Naan stuffed with coconut and nuts 

14) Gulab Jamun pastry balls deep fried and served in syrup
