Fry Up in a Cup

Evidently this is the kind of thing Polish workers ate during lunch in Communist times and before. It was a stop on our Praha food tour. The white is potatoes. There was bacon and some other stuff in it too.

 

Praha Food Tour

Last September we went on a food tour on the other side of the river here in Warsaw. Praha is the new, hip, place to live. First stop was a nice little bakery/breakfast place. 

 

Roadside Lunch

We decided to stop at a full service truck stop on the autobahn instead of the regular rest stops. It even had a REAL restaurant. So we ate real food. It was healthier. And the last pic is snacks from the Bonn hotel.

 

Another Better Meal

This was lunch at a little Asian place not far from the hotel in Berlin. Tasted good on a chilly, rainy day.

 

Birthday Dinner in Berlin

After that awful experience with the Italian food, we fared much better when we decided to do steak on my birthday. The concierge at the Ritz made the reservation, which we didn't need because it was a quiet week night. Better safe than waiting, though. Food and service were great, and we had leftovers to bring back.

 

Awful Italian Food

We couldn't find anywhere open to eat on the Sunday we were in Berlin. In desperation, we went into Calice D'Oro. Big mistake. This was the blandest and saddest Italian meal I have ever had. Service was awful, too. We relearned the lesson not to go to restaurants on tourist streets.

 

Japan in Poland

There's a Japan store in Warsaw that even delivers. And Andreas has had pretty big ramen cravings lately. So he ordered. He likes. And he's figuring out which ones he can make in his hotel room in Kyiv. He was also impressed with the origami note.

 

Gifts from Leonora

Leonora brought us snacks from Kosovo. Thanks Leonora!

 

Gifts from Agnieszka

Cute little Christmas alcohol from our next door neighbor.

 

Chocolate Explosion

Members of the DnD group brought over chocolate for eating during the session. We didn't eat it then, but have since. Thank you!

 

Birthday Cake

 

Leonora made me a birthday cake when we got back from our long trip. It was lemon and raspberry and delicious and appreciated. Thank you, Leonora! 

Advent Calendar

Leonora found this advent calendar and bought it for me. Thank you! You know I love jelly beans.

 

I Like Nalesniki

... which are Polish crepes. Lunch on one of our stops on our road trip. It was great.

 

Dinner in Sopot

 

Family meal at a craft brewery in Sopot. Food was good and Andreas's dad enjoyed the beer flight. I had a tasty raspberry cocktail, too.

Snacks from Michelle

Great swap from Michelle in the US. I got my favorite Martha White and some dill pickle chips. Thank you so much.

 

Pizza in the Oven

Making our normal Thursday night dinner.
