The Annual Get-Together

[horseshoes]

Every August six of use friends gather at our house and we have a lovely meal which I spend days planning. The past few years we've had Beef wellington, beef rib, all sorts of things done with chicken. We can't have fish or lamb and we've only had pork the once that I can remember. So.....this year I'd like to do something with pork... possibly medallions and a lovely sauce. Any ideas or recipes or indeed alternative suggestions will be welcome..

As pork is such a staple of oriental cooking you could do a nice Chinese style dinner (maybe with Japanese gyoza to start).

i'm seeing this as a special occasion. how about asian food? like a Filipino dish. They are very much into pork. or how about a burger? is it a formal or non-formal occasion? you should take that into consideration 'cause food must sort of go with the theme of your occasion. i suggest you add some drama..why dont you add a menu, i've seen this from online printing companies like http://www.uprinting.com/ and they have there designs for menu. you'll love it. goodluck!
