Wartime Christmas Mealtime

DFAC At Christmas

The DFAC here really pulled out all the stops for the big Christmas meal(s) they put on today. Lunch was the main event and it was fantastic. Notice the red table cloth, for example, and the little dish of nuts and cookies in the middle of the table.

In case you can't tell, that's a non-alcoholic Becks in the picture, since we're not allowed to drink the real stuff. If you've never had it, I can attest that it does taste like beer. It just doesn't feel like beer, but hey, we take what we can get.

The menu said goose but the guy serving the food said duck. Either way, it was tasty. And speaking of tasty, I don't know what they did to the turkey but it was fantastic.

The Grinch made an appearance, along with Cindy Lou Who - aka the Australian Army Master Chef who runs the joint.

All in all, it was about as festive and Christmas-y as can be. Definitely a nice break from the usual and a nice way to celebrate the day.

I even found a totally delish star-shaped ice cream thing, to go along with that piece of cake I was looking for.

Merry Christmas everyone!
