Hi Fam! As promised last week, this post will be fully dedicated to food. I hope you’re having a great week so far, and that everything is working in your favor. At this time, I am still looking for a house, and I hope that there will be an opportunity for me to move out soon. I hate not being able to cook for myself.
Unlike I promised, I have been unable to taste the miso soup. This weekend has been quite hectic (my Saturday did not go as planned, nor did my Sunday for that matter). After a few hours of searching on Saturday, I managed to buy a new desk lamp. The one I bought is less plastic and has a more industrial & mature feel. I love it!
But, I promised to write about food. (Got to make good on those promises). So here we go! On Sunday the 20th, we headed off to the van Gogh museum. Unlike what we usually do, we actually sat down at the museum and had a pretty good lunch. I ordered a lot of things, and each of them tasted amazing.
I started off with some chicken wings in soy sauce, and then I took a bite of my favorite person’s apple turnover. I’ve got to admit, the apple turnover is definitely one of the best ones I’ve had till date. If you have any suggestions for other places which serve amazing apple turnovers, please let me know! The chicken wings tasted like my grandmother’s recipe, so I was really pleased. The final thing I had, was a fish sandwich which featured dill. I know that some people are not a fan, but to me, it’s like a match made in epicurean heaven.
After the museum, we made way to the American store (that’s pretty much what we tend to call it). A quick Google search, however, revealed that the store is actually called Eichholtz Delicatessen. This store has the most amazing things. For example, this shelf. I know that anything that holds sugar isn’t good for you.. and my own motto is not to buy anything that has aspartame, stevia or any other artificial sweeteners. It’s also the reason that I usually stick to regular Coca-Cola. I’m also that person at the store who starts reading the label to determine what type of sugar I am consuming and if I want to ‘risk it’ or not. I’m also pretty weak to crisps, and this store sells ‘Walkers: Worchester sauce’. This time, they were even out of stock! (Hence, no pictures).
After this mini haul, we realized we were pretty hungry. By that time, it was almost 6 P.M. In the end we decided to end our evening at Ramen Ya. This time I did not manage to finish the entire bowl, but that was because I had eaten a lot during lunch. Sometimes I have a donut before heading back home, but dinner had me so full I decided to opt out of it.
We did end up at Starbucks, where I ordered some Earl Grey for my favorite person; and some Strawberry green tea for myself.
