food The Drunken Chef

I picked up halibut, shrimp and scallops last night intending to do up some fritters but then realized I had way too much seafood.
The hosky began talking to me....."beer battered halibut....beer battered halibut..", so I obeyed my drunken muse and carried on.
I think the muse was taking pics and got a bit sloppy so I opted for a beginning and end piccy's only...

The Hofbrau hosky is most excellent!

It says he is browsing this thread, unless he passed out with a Lumpia in his mouth and his head on the keyboard.

:lol: I was trying to respond from my iPod touch.....but the damn thing went dead on me!
 
Holy crap....started on Keystone......then moved into the Tecate....

Before I knew it, Tim and I were shooting whiskey and chasing it with the beer. Somehow, after that, EVERYTHING seemed quite humorous to me.....;)
 
Last night I had twelve year old Old Rasputin, a Piraat, some sort of fruity rum martini, a mango Mimosa, and a new vodka called Quay. Good thing I made up the crab cakes ahead of time! Oooohhh hungover today.
 
Alrighty!!! Here are just SOME of the photos from last night.....sorry they're so late!! The THP re-fit kinda threw me off yesterday....then I was a bit too drunk to operate the computer!

Starting the lumpia:

I know it's been a good night if I end up trying to take my pants off over my head. Still trying to perfect my technique and practice often.
 
Trays of lumpia....ready to go into the canola oil:

I find that a bout 3/4" of oil works better than a deep-fryer:

I woke up around 3:15 wearing nothing but Retta's robe....and Tim was snoring in the floor beside my bed.
 
...and the beat goes on...

I made just a bit too many....but fortunately, they go really well with morning coffee!
