What Did You Last Eat Thread

[Sassy Colombian]

When in Belgium… I am fir a few more weeks
Moules and frites …. These had a portion of smoked salmon in there too
Sat with my best mate watching all the Belgians gathering for tonight’s game … we rattled these off with a good couple of glasses of Belgium beers
Sometimes simple is all you need
Come on Belgium …

Those mussels look delicious, like @Tommy. I adore mussels. My younger brother, who is also a painter thought me a couple of good recipes, which reminds me that I should prepare some soon lol

In fact the best mussels I ever had were a few weeks ago before I left Spain . There’s a fab little beach bodega Las Sardenas whose house mussels have a hot spicy paprika tomato sauce
Oh my !!!
I love food ha ha
I even have a food based painting somewhere I.l see if I can find it

Been hot as crap here. Been making cold salads like tuna salad (white vinegar, sugar, mayo, mustard, pickles, banana peppers, onion, salt, pepper) and putting it on bread with sliced cucumber. Also, rice vinegar/red onion/cucumber/chopped tomato/salt/pepper.

I love hot weather so I have no complaints about the heat but during this time I enjoy eating lots of salads too. This evening I also had a tuna salad but Tuscan style with green beans harvested straight from my garden. Yours sounds pretty tasty too so once my banana peppers and cucumbers are harvested I may give it a try.

You left Spain? Where is your destiny now?

Hot spicy paprika tomato sauce mussels sound yummy. I love food too much too, it is one of the best aspects about being human

When young I worked for years in the restaurant industry. Mostly as a waitress and bartender but I also did some prep cooking and was even a line cook for a short bit so good food presentation is always in my mind.

Ha thanks so much that was the start of a series I did trying to give the illusion of solids with wandering lines ..... look at the bottles ..... no real outline of a bottle just drawn rhythmic shapes
I need to revisit that idea actually

Ha, really. My younger brother lives in Belgium, moved there this year from France. My mom is going in September to visit.

Italy or Spain seem like the perfect places to retire and eat delicious food
