Yesterday, the table was set in honor of dad. To bring the masculinity to the table, rock planters were used, filled with succulents as the centerpiece.
Grass placemats, bamboo cutlery and checkered napkins bring a casual outdoor feel to the table.
Father's Day wouldn't be complete without dad's favorite barbeque. Tandoori chicken on the grill
Baby elephant was eagerly waiting for the chicken to be ready
Succulent tandoori chicken
Paneer-vegetable kabobs are just off the grill and ready to be devoured. For the recipe and step-by-step pictures of these kabobs, check out my daughter's blog post.
All these recipes can be found in my cookbook, Entertaining From an Ethnic Indian Kitchen.

Erika,
ReplyDeleteFalooda is an Indian drink made up of thin noodles, basil seeds, milk, rose syrup, milk and ice cream. In this case, I made the drink and freeze it in the Popsicle molds. Either way it is a very delicious drink.
Oh my, what a beautiful setting. I love it. The succulents in the center are gorgeous and the entire tablescape is beautiful. The menu sounds incredible. Love it all. Thanks so much for joining TTT. Hugs, Marty

Thank you for the beautiful blog. The food and flowers are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYou inspired me to have a get-together with neighbors!
Whoa! This blog looks just like my old one! It's on a entirely different subject but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Great choice of colors!

Perfection! I have been looking for rock planters and was wondering where you found yours.
ReplyDeleteLast year I found them in Joane fabrics.
