I received an exclusive complimentary hamper from Lazy
Gourmet right after my trip from Japan. Timing has never
been better, as I was as lazy as ever.

I've always been a great fan of the Les Amis
Group & I enjoy dining at Au Jardin, Le Amis
& La Strada but Lazy Gourmet is my
first. I normally prefer cooking from scratch & don't usually
use ready-made soup, sauces etc. But Lazy Gourmet, created by the
Head Chefs of the restaurants in the Les Amis group, seemed to good
to be true & I just have to try it.
I was excited opening up the hamper. I found soups, pasta sauces
& main courses, 3 of each nicely packed in boxes. I was feeling
really lazy this morning, probably still suffering from "jet-lag".
LOL! I took out the Country-style
Mushroom Soup & read the instructions indicated at the
back of the box.
The steps seemed simple. There were 3 methods to enjoy the
sumptuous meal. I opted for the easiest: defrost the package in the
microwave, transfer into bowl & heat. I found some Okra or
ladyfingers in my fridge so I cut them up & added into the soup
& heat together. Within minutes, I've got
my yummy Country-style Mushroom Soup with
Okra! The soup was flavourful & packed a punch.
The okra went well with the soup & gave it an additional
crunch. Mmmm...... love it!
