Dougy P’s 60th Birthday Brunch – ‘Sick My Duck’

The legend that is Doug Peris is turning 60 and having about 60 parties to celebrate haha. Well, of course, he would, he’s a popular chap right! Back from golf and pre-Maldives, he was squeezing a brunch into his bus 60-year-old social calendar. So off we all trot to The Ritz Carlton, for what turned out to be one of the very best brunches I have ever had in Singapore. AMAZING food. AMAZING friends and family. AMAZING fun. It really could not have been better. All ages had such a wonderful afternoon at Dougy P’s 60th Birthday Brunch – ‘Sick My Duck’. And here is proof.

Why are we always late to shit? Well, one reason is that I have to hire a bloody coach every time to get the gang in. Here is a pre-filling shot whilst we wait for Strawberry Blonde to change her shoes.

Loving my DIY tapas. Slow-braised lamb shank in curry sauce. Wagyu steak with an amazing sauce, wrapped in a crepe. Smoked duck, foie gras and candied pine nuts. Fark me sideways! Yummo!!!

I went to basics with Jude. I found the most perfect mashed potato with black truffle. Some gorgeous crispy bread and the best butter I have very eaten in my lofe from France (really did I just say that, maird!!!) This was off-the-charts mashed spuds. OMG. Best ever in a million years. Could have covered me in it and kept on licking!!! Or brought in some hired help for those hard to reach areas, which these days are everywhere.

Individual lobsters anyone? “Don’t mind if I do!” said my wifey. How good is this?

I really am not 100% certain if Jude is enjoying his truffle mash. Hmmmmm. Just so not sure!!!

Jesus that bloody bear gets everywhere. Bell joins Dougy’s birthday brunch with Jude. Luckily the sister Anna stayed at home. Imagine Anna Bell at a party. Now that would be interesting!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? No, it’s Jude’s dessert which consists of NEAT sugar. Well, that just upped the afternoon gameplan a few notches. I need more champagne, and right now!!!

I made my very own cheese clock. One of each type and I kid you not I only got to half-way of what was on offer. I have NEVER seen such a variety of cheese on offer. And they were stunning. Wifey and I were working round the clock but we just ran out of time. Woo Hoo!!!

Jude falls in love with Uncle Alex, now a Commando post-NS and super-strong. Still does give any common-sense as Jude just lost the top of his head on the ceiling fan!

I am joking. Alex, you were a SAINT, my friend. You have a new BFF that is still talking about you mate! Thank you for the baby-sitting from wifey and I. “Er yeah love another two glasses of Champagne thanks!”

Father of 3. All my kids are mixed, with English-Japanese, and English-Filipino - a recipe in the making there. I have been cooking since a small lad, as guided by my Nan and my Mum - gradually that morphed through exposure to Thai cooking from a lovely lady called Da in Margate. I used to hang out in her restaurant and watch the techniques. So the 1+1= greater than 2 occurred - Mum/Nan/Da - off I went in to the world of Asian cuisine. Moving to Asia in early 2000's clearly has brought that on somewhat - we travel continually, and eat locally and therefore have exposure to more and more new things. I have lived my dream and written a cook book whilst here, an amazing experience and all for a good cause too as I raised a lot of money for charity. My blog is now hopefully turning in to book number 2. Watch this space. I hope you enjoy my passion.
