16 Sep 2009 Last bit … abt europe.

I know, my posts have been irregular and erractic. My apologies! Alright, let me end my features on European food today and tmr, i will be blogging about some good food from Singapore again!

Some of the hotels serves pretty good food. For example on my first morning in Switzerland, they served carvier for breakfast!! wow. i want cavier for breakfast everyday! That was Renaissance Hotel in Zurich. Assortments of pastries, Fish and chips in London, ice cream, chocolates. All the flashbacks and memories are making me hungry! Enjoy the photos!

What the heck is a picture of a toilet doing together with the food?! You must be thinking this. I can’t help it but share this with you. Its the first time i saw a toilet like this. Thats like such a random toilet, appearing out of no where! By the way, thats in London.

Oh man, there’s so much more unique food which i have yet to explore in Europe. Like so so so much more! I must go back there and explore other areas to bring you the best! Thats my mission! Can someone sponsor my mission pls? haha.

Hear from me soon!

I love French cuisine! Simply terrific! I know, i seem to love everything! I count my blessings to be able to enjoy the good food all around! When we were at Paris, we stopped by this restaurant. They served some bread and escargot(snails) for appetizer. The main course was rooster meat and potatoes. Ended the meal with an assortment of cheese and a sweet caramel cake. I really enjoy eating escargots! Here, they cooked them really well and the sauce that they use is really tasty! I did not waste a single drop of it. I used the bread to wipe the sauce dry! haha.

Rooster meat is not too bad. The marinate they use is good. The last picture is foie gras (pronounced /fwɑːˈɡrɑː/ in English) (Fah Gwah). Its not from the restaurant. We got it from the a supermarket. They had a wide selection and we wanted to eat on the spot so we ordered this chunk of fat goose liver! I love the taste and texture of it! Its really unique! However, trying it once is okay, but we should keep eating them due to the cruelty behind making foie gras. They actually force feed the goose to make their liver fat! Oh my, can you imagine me force feeding you till ur liver becomes fat and delicious?? Alright enough said, enjoy the fotos!

Bon appetit!

09 Sep 2009 Charcuterie cuisine
 |  Category: Paris, Pastries  | Tags: , , , ,  | One Comment

We were walking around in Paris and when i passed this shop, i just had to enter it. I know, i am a greedy boy, i simply can’t resist nice looking food. The pastas and pastries just pulled me in like a fly attracted to blue light! “I can’t help itttttt!”

They are not only nice looking, they taste great too! I bought this mushroom and potato pastry. Perfect!!! Very nice soft crispy pastry with creamy potato mushroom fillings. ANd just look at those pastas and pastries and meat and sauages and everything! I wish i own that shop!! Check this shop out if you are in Paris.

Just for your information, Charcuterie (pronounced /ʃɑrˌkuːtəˈriː, ʃɑrˈkuːtəri/; French: [ʃaʁkyˈtʁi], from chair ‘flesh’ and cuit ‘cooked’) is the branch of cooking devoted to prepared meat products such as bacon, ham, sausage, terrines, galantines, pâtés, and confit, primarily from pork. Got this from wiki =D.

Cheers,
