STEEMFest Day Two Dinner - Watch me hit the wall!

avatar
(Edited)

After Day Two's Conference events we went to a riverside restaurant for dinner. This was 600 meters away, and everyone else walked.

My ride turned out to be the longest 600 meters ever driven is a cab. @rycharde was with me and I do not think he will ever forget it. After many futile circles, still we did not get too close to the place.

By the time I showed up to the venue it was dark and I was at the end of my abilities to function. When my vision is going. I should be in bed somewhere.

The place was also very warm and airless. So here you can see a surreal trip through food I barely saw at the time, as I melted in place and tried to stay conscious.

Passion fruit panna cotta, in a half filled shot glass. ONE mouthful! I ate MANY and I was too delirious, sweaty, and tired to count for you.

This was light, fruity, and so restorative. I should have quit while I was ahead.

But this dessert was a major hit too. I stood here and ate at least 5 of these; back and forth with the panna cotta.

Coffee, chocolate, banana, caramel, cookies. All in a different type of shot glass. Most sinful thing ever in way too small of a serving.

Everyone who passed said."You are eating dessert already?"

"Yes. Don't judge."

Fruit sticks were between the two desserts and went into the rotation.

On a good day I would eat this all day. Great presentation, ripeness and flavor.

These were good. I only had one and realized I was not very hungry after three meals of dessert.

Excellent fruit salad minus the raw tomatoes that do not like me.

No to sticky rice! I did not pick off all the custards, or any of them. You are welcome.

Not eating anything with rice as the lead.

I ate the meat out of a slider, and disposed of the rest. Ground and seasoned pork in slightly spicy sauce.

Here's something...

One bacon wrapped pork was delicious but so heavy! I should not have eaten this while shaking in a pool of my own sweat.

Now I remember I have a flash on my cell phone.

I found an edge with a breeze to try to take some crowd shots.

This one is not good.

Ummm....

There was a wine and beer bar where I got a few juices, but never took photos.

Here is a passing boat like we will be on in a couple of hours for the closing event.

Another boat passing us on shore.

After this I staggered out and wandered my way back to the hostel. Nothing from this time is clear at all except for seeing @roelandp on a random corner quite far along the way. I was so fortunate for this encounter so he could point me to the non-intuitive main street.

I have been resting in place for the last two days, and feel a lot better. Bring on the boat!

hah! I blame google maps for telling us to go the wrong way up a one-way street to then find an alley no wider than a tuk-tuk! That taxi driver then had to get out!

That finger-food was bizarre; surely the smallest burger I have ever seen - the size of a key fob.

Haha! I so agree about the tiny food, @rycharde! And I was not expecting it to be pork. I was all ready for beef and got a shock.

At least the taxi gave me a deal after all of that!

Great to see but I do not understand the "we". I assume " we" means you were not alone and the meal/desseers we're for free?I think your health is 50 times better as mine. You can travel, follow the conference and did stayed conscious and wrote this. I think it did you good and notice your upvotes increased too. I am happy for you. 👍 Have a great rest.
