Machete eats again! Making off #design101 - Part 2

Here are pics from the night with 3 friends over 20th November.

The Menu for the Friends (2 French and 1 German) was following:

# 1st Filled paprica with cherry tomatoes, pepper and olive oil in the owen.

# 2nd Guacamole with nachos and also some popcorn for the movie. 

# We went all together to pick up a Mexican movie from a nearby videorental. We watched Oliver Stone movie "The Savages"

# Music for the evening was as usual in our house: Studio Brussel.

One of my guests Amber, happened to be French chef and she helped me to cut the chili for the guacamole

next day a totally different athmosphere with my Spanish friend.

Making off Machete Eats! #design101 -Part 1

Here is my crazy making off pics of "Machete eats" and extra cool Rodriques stuff read on...

setting up my lemon squeezer, kinky

I started my #design101 Kitchen Stories week by planning the Wednesday 20th November around a movie night theme. When I usually have friends over we look some movies together with our beamer. We have a Asterix puzzle painting on the wall and we just remove it and its like an opening for the movie night.

We had seen Machete with some friends during the first #design101 week. But I really love Robert Rodriquez movies and I am also waiting to see soon the 2nd edition of Machete kills.

So I made the Machete movie poster  for the tool assignment. The name of the main character is Machete (knife) and so the name of the other actors become as well the other tools I need to make Guacamole. Its a concept design. Machete character is known that he always kills. I thought eating is the same thing, happening again and again.

All tools are showing in the pic except the lemon squeezer that happens to be under my shirt. Very hot guacamole indeed. You can see finally the lemon squeezer in my last pics when I even tried a black&white version with the tools. There you can as well see my design101 shirt in practice with knifes hanging on my shoulder. The rest of material of that shirt project became my new sexy machete shirt. When I made my shirt for the Friday 8th of November challenge the idea was that I could hang artistic tools on my shoulders and longer sleeves. Knifes are a bit more dangerous. Don´t try these things at home!!!

I will recommend you to see all of Robert Rodriquez movies and also the DVD extra specials. I learned last week from Robert Rodriquez how he makes the Puerco Pibil. Here is his 10 min cooking  school! He says: "You have to eat rest of your life, mind as well know how." Also in this tutor he gives a nice advice: Just practice your 3 favorite dish and learn to make them well. Cook them once a week or every other week and experiment and you get better at it.

Here are some of his movies:
Machete
Machete kills
Once upon a time in Mexico
Sin City
From Dusk Till Dawn

This is art!

Friday! design101/026

Robinson: Most important task was to shield against wild beasts and the savages.

Another adventure of the moose. This time he gets to an island with Robinson Crusoe.

Luis Bunuels Robinson Crusoe film is amazing and fits perfectly to our design 101 course.

Robinson: " I performed myself in all tasks and was forced to learn new ones. In short, I learned to master everything on my island expect myself."

you are eating my island!

mmmm

gladiator in arena

Let´s be friends

Robinson: "We found that two working together was far better than two working separately.

Difficult task: Be my mom #design101 / 025

Today I invited my Spanish friend Bibi for some guacamole and tortilla chips. She was perfect person to be Machete´s mom. I tried this time to make especially for her some home made tortilla chips but failed big time so I served just a small portion to test.  I learned from Bibi that I should never use olive oil for the chips but sunflower oil.  My main problem was that I had a recipe where you bake them in the owen on the baking paper and the paper got stuck to them. As an extra delicacy I had camembert cheese fondue. And no alcohol for my dear mom so I had orzata with cinnamon.

My Spanish "mom"

There was also camembert fondue with the chips

Machete Eats #design101 /024

Machete don´t text. Machete eats.

While making my poster I found this forest fire picture just randomly from google search but its about Lebanese forest fires and our today´s postcard place was actually in Lebanon! What a coincidence!

Kitchen Stories - the ingredients #design101/023

Guacamole coming...more about it tomorrow.
I got all fresh ingredients from the Turkish market today.

Here is my homework nro 23

there is empty circle on the table..could it be Corona bottle that is missing from this picture?

Romulus: Wtf? where is my meat?

I have been very busy last weeks with Design101 and other stuff. Last week the highlight (moment of strange time travelling) of the week was that I had a movie extra job as 70´s club guest in a smoky Burlesque club. Each day I had to be in the set for 12 hours so I was pretty tired and could not keep up updating my #design101 tasks. Anyway I made all of them and will post those these days.

Here still some pics from my way back home from the market.

I had to leave all my croceries in a locked cupboard while visiting Modulor design equpment shop. Its almost like a christmas calendar when box opens.

and this was on the way home: The universum loves you and help you!
