Mr. S Birthday Feast 2013

I have a seafood theme for Mr. S birthday feast this year.  We are fortunate that we live in a neighborhood that have a local fish market to provide us the freshest seafood.  I always try to avoid seafood from chain grocery stores, because a lot of times they are frozen and defrosted before putting out to the display. 

For those of you who are new to my blog, it is my own tradition to make a meal feast for Mr. S to celebrate his birthday. You can click here to see the previous feast:

Here is this year's menu: 
Thai Mussels
Shrimp Salad with Mango and Avocado
Pear Salad with Goat Cheese
Cauliflower soup
Steamed Dungeness Crab
Parmesan Zucchini Fries Recipe
Rum balls

I always plan ahead when I am cooking a big meal. To cook this meal smoothly, I made the salad dressing and the rum balls the day before.  On the day of the feast, I spent around 2-3 hours to prep and cook.  The results of the meal was fantastic! They are very easy recipe and they all tasted delicious!
