A dainty weekend.
March 9, 2008
这个周末：
- 西班牙大选 → 随便！
- 看书 → 我要学会开车，我要回到独立的生活！
- 下雨 → 没办法去葡西边境跑步了。
- 蹭饭 → 同事的女人做牛油果+色拉、牛肉煮栗子和李子、水果蛋糕。第二个很好吃的！！
- 做饭 → 周六请了同事来家里吃我做的菜：南瓜忌廉汤（美味得连我自己都吃惊啊）、咕老肉（其实不是很成功，但是他们也没吃出来）、芝士蛋糕+现做草莓酱汁（这个有点媲美专业水准）；周日用蛤蜊做了黑色的意大利面：加上白酒、洋葱和黑胡椒，味道还不赖哦！
My apple pie!

Hot and juicy…doesn’t it seem tasty??!!
Cocido & Callos, pesadísimos!
February 29, 2008
Today what impressed me the most was not the tiramisu that made A Calustra, but the saying: En Galicia, lo que no se puede hacer es ponerte de dieta. Pero qué dices!
This year´s winter has already passed away, but we´ve not stopping tasting Galician winter plates. Last week was the famous Callos a la gallega, and this week Cocido gallego. Both of them are delicious, but i can bear no more either of them, cuz they´re so FUERTE!
callos, garbanzos, chorizos, cebolla, a whole pig, potatos…oh, dios!
Tocino de Cielo
February 26, 2008
It’s not a beautiful name, if you’d really like to translate it (fat of the sky). This tipical andalucian dessert made with egg yolk and sugar has an extrmely sweet flavour that may be beyond someone’s ideology as my best friend usually evaluates.
But for me it’s ok. Hombre, el caramelo es fuerte, sobre todo por la noche. However, it lies there for you to taste it, to give it a life that it deserves to recive…Así que pruébalo, porque tú lo vales!
墨西哥餐厅和葡萄牙烤肉
February 25, 2008
周六进城游玩去了La Coruña,在这个以因足球队出名的加利西亚省会城市用了午餐。一行四人在中国餐厅、印度餐厅和墨西哥餐厅里选择了最后一个，我喜欢餐厅的布置，tipical的墨西哥红与绿，墙上挂满了墨城街景的照片，把倒置的酒瓶当烛台，宽帽沿的sombrero, 还有色拉里的aguacate…los recurdos de Proméxico.
周日一不小心又越了国境，来到了葡萄牙。靠着边境的小镇Valença是个旅游景点，周末店家都全天营业，石子铺成的巷子两边皆是卖毛巾、餐布的精致小店。逛完一圈找到一家churrasquería。对西班牙人来说，在葡萄牙消费是很划算的事情，所以就随心所欲了，结果撑得挪动着出门每人也没花掉十块大洋。原来加利西亚和葡萄牙才是巴西、阿根廷烤肉的源头呢，端上餐桌的那盘烤肉让我想起了若干年前在崇明岛上吃过的一盆大闸蟹~~~忘了说，同伴点的甜点布丁下铺的一层蛋糕居然是椰子味的，吃上去味道像是椰蓉月饼。
Yep, that was the sushi i made!

Cortar, cortar y cortar…y enrollar, voilà!
French dessert + American coffee + Italian design = located in Spain!
February 23, 2008
Today we made a trip to Santiago de Compostela. Of course the Cathedral was breathtaking, for its long history and the work of art that it shows. However, after visiting it, we discovered something that surprised us just as much as the Cathedral did.
It was a cafeteria situated in one of the callejóns near the Cathedral, with the name Mora. At first, it seems just a normal pastelería with some special printed walls, but when you move forward, there appears another space of “Hey relax, take a seat and have some coffee”. Moreover, they sale hand-made chocolate with a super chulo design, wrapped in all kinds of packing papels and even in the shape of a CD.
I ordered a milhojas francesa and a avellana caf’e laitte. The coffee was quite of the American style, light and sweet, which reminded me of the X’mas Special that Starbucks promotes in Sh, that was the same flavor.
With that X’mas papel cup held in one hand, I took a walk in the downtown area during the deep winter…
The milhojas was also fantastic. I’ve never tried that of PAUL which Like told me that enjoys a high reputation, but i think it won’t be far from that anyway.
The cafeteria has its atmosphere designed in an Italian style: simple and modern.
That’ s the very place that i would like to work if it’s not for Velneo, jeje.
Canarias, everything´s tropical.

Recently, I’ve got to know more and more about Las Ganarias, as i live with some colleagues in this tiny Galician town.
They like making their food and share them with people, so i have the chance to learn another Spanish Cuisine which is somehow related with South America.
There is one called Arepa, a tipical Venezuelan plate that is prepared with corn flour filled with meat or vegetables. Actually, u can put in anything you want, jamon, atun, etc.
Another famous dessert Quesillo is similar to a pudding, but it’s just a little bit harder and tastes dpm!
They are also accustomed to put tropical fruits in their plates, especially when it comes to salads. It’s a great idea to put some pineapple in a salad!
Oh, and i onced tried 葡式蛋挞 that made by our mait (cuz we live next to the Portugueses, la gente tiene un poco de ambos lados). It was an entire one…and looks amazing! Y lo comen frío, qué raro!
我的饼……

When I lived in Shanghai with Like, we tried various dishes that seem both easy to prepare and delicious, this is one of them: carne picada con patata. At last, it tasted as if we were eating at a Mcdonald’s…
