Fui Cooks At Home IV: Oh My "God"

Apologize for the late update, been confusing by something recently and moody, also a little bit of laziness.

I'll skip the salad course because I'm still not yet think of any good idea for it :(

Among the Chicken, Pigeon, Duck, Fish or any Seafood, Beef or Lamb... ...Cod Fish always the "God" in the top list, all the time.

I like the cod since first time I ate it when I was still a child. The first question I ask my mother,"What fish is this?Why there is no bone?"

Yea, I do always complain to my mother why all those fishes so many small bones inside, and I love the cod since I know about it.

Sauteed Mixed Mushrooms

I remember the Best Cod Fillet I ever had at Lafite, Shangri-La Hotel. The cod fillet was cook to nicely well done and it is not only flaky but juicy! The best cod in the town!

Pickled Capsicum

I had a hard time to search for cod fillet, every hypermarket and the wet market at the morning, still it was a surprise that I had finally found it at the Isetan Food Market, KLCC. Note, the cod fillet is different from the cod block, which is look much better in presentation.

Cod Fillet Glazed with Honey

Honey Glazed Scallop with Wild Mushrooms

Honestly, I'm not so satisfy with the presentation and the taste is OK, 6 out of 10. But I have no time to adjust because I don't like cold cod as my dinner :D
