Brussels

Had a relaxing period in Brussels. Stayed with my aunt and her husband. My aunt's a chef in a Thai restaurant there. And of course I had beautiful meals everyday. Yum yum.

Also had more typical Belgian food. Which often comes with frites (Belgian fries) and Stoemp (mashed potates with some other veg mixed in). Had some Belgian sausage thing (I've forgotten the name) and a Fish Stew which was slightly spicy. Also bought microwavable instant meals from the supermarket of Chicken Waterzooi and Chicon a la Creme (endives). I've tried the Moules (mussels) on another occassion. But one of my favourite Belgian food are the warm waffles freshly made by the sidewalk.

An amazing coincidence was bumping into a friend of mine from Melbourne, Marcus, and his wife, walking the streets of Brussels. He's working in Cambridge at the moment and was on holidays. Small world.
