Ananda Trip: A Degustation Dinner

At dinnertime, there are various options: a daily special menu, a light & healthy  menu and a gourmet menu at the Ananda Spa, and every evening I have sampled delicious vegetarian dishes and other delicacies. But after the cooking class, the Chef has probably warmed up to us, and surprised us tonight with a special tasting menu:
A Thai mushroom soup to start, with the piping hot and spicy broth served in a teapot, an amazing sampler appetizer with fish fillets cooked 4 different ways, marinated in spices and grilled, deep fried with a sweet & sour sauce, grilled in a minced coriander & mint pesto (the most delicious) and panfried with yogurt and spices.
The main course is a tray of chicken curry with various condiments, fried okras, stewed spinach, lentil puree, and basmati rice.
The dessert samplers offer a perfect sweet ending!
