X-mas Dinner Menu - East meet West

While the x-mas lunch is so popular in Aussie, I'd prefer to have x-mas dinner which's allowed more time to prepare the stuffs. Our X-mas 2008 celebration were simple and tasty with mostly home made meals plus some dinner breads from new Korean bakery shop and take away roasted duck from Chinese restaurant:) and special menu that I was looking forward to cook: Turkey breast stuffed with the recipe I found from Food Ideas magazines. So, what did I have for x-mas dinner? Basically, it's a combination of East and West menu, to fulfil every body's taste.
First, for the appetizer, we had dinner bread with butter and Peking Duck wrapped.
The main course was turkey breast stuffed served with Rosemary Roasted Potato, Salad Mix with Asian dressing sauce, Green bean with crispy crumbs, honey buttered dutch carrot and Garlic steam Lobster bough by my mother in law.
I like something sweets for the dessert. My first choice was black forest cake by Gordon Ramsay, with the recipe from Australian Good Food Magazines. As soon as our stomach were singing, then I forgot everything:), so some pictures were forgotten to be taken as well.

Here is the tiny crunchy dutch carrot with the picture taken before cooking:)
