Fennel Salad

This is a very simple salad.  Butter lettuce, Fennel with Honey mustard dressing.

Honey mustard dressing is just mix lemon juice, honey and Dijon mustard and extra virgin olive oil.

Simple, but very refreshing.

Vietnamese Fresh Springrolls

I like Vietnamese food because they use a lot of vegetables.  I made this Vietnamese spring roll wrapping with rice paper.  The sauce I also made just imagine I was in Vietnam while I was cooking:)

Strasbourg

We went to Strasbourg, France to see our very good friends who were used to live in Singapore.
Strasbourg is a beautiful city and we all really enjoyed everything there, view, food, wine, and the most precious time with being good friends together.

This is the city.


This is Flams.  The most famous snack in Strasbourg.  The same brand restaurant opened in Singapore, so I would like to try if it's as good as in Strasbourg.

My friend made a lot of nice home made food.  This is one of them.

Lots of delicious cheeses with a cute cheese plate.


We also had traditional Alsace food at a restaurant.  It was very tasty and atmosphere was so comfortable and cozy.





The church was lighten up.  What a beautiful time!  Thank you, dear our friends!!

Dutch First Food

The most well known Dutch first foods are Bitterbollen(meat roll covered in breadcrumbs) and Frikandel (a skinless minced meat sausage).  


When I went to Holland first time to meet my husband's parents, I went out with his friends one night.  We had lots of food and drinks and in the end, they all went to buy Frikandel from a vending machine to eat.  I was very surprised that they could still eat after the huge meal and drinks as well as the vending machine is there!  Well, actually Japanese people also go eat Ramen after drinking so it's kind of same concept, I guess.  






































Europe

I was in Holland and France on holiday.  I had a fantastic time there!

This is Holland.  Do you know there are more bicycles than population in Holland?  This road is for bicycles.  I walked every morning and saw nice view which totally different from Singapore.
