@taiwan_girl said in Tonight's dinner: @Mik How was teh corn ice cream. Awesome as always. Fun to make, too. I used twice the corn for a stronger corn flavor. Even better, my SIL was in the area and came for dinner and overnight. Did not make the chicken dish as I would have had to go to the store. Instead I made penne with the fresh tomato sauce with buffala mozzarella, burrata and suateed chicken. Delicious.
