The skill of the Portuguese in handling seafood is no laughing matter!
While traveling in southern Spain, braised oxtail (Rabo de Toro) quickly became my favorite dish. It was a culinary delight so heavenly that I could indulge in it repeatedly without ever growing tired! With one bite, the rich flavor spreads from the gelatinous texture of the oxtail, providing an unforgettable and smooth sensation.
Churros with a thick, rich chocolate sauce, known as "Churros con Chocolate," are a beloved breakfast in Spain. Every morning, locals gather outdoors to enjoy their churros, turning breakfast into a social gathering with neighbors.
Before coming to Italy, I didn't realize how indulgent I could be. During my week-long stay, my daily meals looked roughly like this:
Breakfast - Dishes prepared by the bed and breakfast.
Lunch - Gelato.
Afternoon Tea - Gelato and Coffee.
Dinner - Gelato.
During my trip to Hong Kong, one of the main reasons I chose to stay at Mandarin Oriental was the chance to enjoy their English afternoon tea at a relaxed pace. When I saw the complete set of tea utensils, the three-tiered dessert platter, and the beautifully embroidered tablecloth, it felt like a special ceremony.
On that day, my friend took me to the largest beer garden in Bavaria: Königlicher Hirschgarten. We arrived around 4 p.m., and since it was still before the end of the workday, the place appeared quite empty. However, I heard that on weekday evenings and holidays, it can get incredibly crowded.
This restaurant was recommended by my friend, who had studied in Paris for many years. Being a gourmet, she told me that if I wanted to try the famous French dish, escargot, I definitely couldn't miss this restaurant, Le Café des Musées.
In the streets of Taiwan and Japan, you can find "crêpes" everywhere. The colorful fruits and overflowing whipped cream peeking out from the inverted triangular pastry looked especially delightful, making me feel that crêpes should indeed be this dreamy!
Café Constant, located near the Eiffel Tower, offers set menus that usually cost around €40 or less, with even more affordable prices for lunch. Considering the exorbitant prices in Paris, it can be considered budget-friendly. The best part is that the overall experience is surprisingly impressive!
