I met a nice group of people at the gym, mostly Aussies (apparently that's the largest group here). Last weekend was the opening of a new bar down the street and also a couple of people's birthdays so we all went down to celebrate.
The bar was holding a barbecue with lots of Thai dishes and I helped out in the kitchen with food prep and dishwashing. It was fun, but I don't think being a sous chef is anywhere in my future! We made skewers, papaya salad, curry, pork fried rice and a couple vegetable salads. I felt like we were on one of those restaurant shows, we had to send someone out to get a few ingredients and the grill which was supposed to be delivered earlier in the day only just made it as we were finishing prepping the skewers.

I got to set off my first paper lantern! The owners had a few that we lit for good luck and to celebrate the occasion.
