As readers of this blog will have noticed, I am a foodie and Malaysia is a paradise for foodies. But when I am back in my native country, I also enjoy the food there. In this blog you will find no nature, no culture, just food and more food.. 🙂 And me, of course I had my food often in company with family or friends, but in this blog you will only see food and me!
Here are a few pictures of my own home-cooking, when I did not have to entertain friends. Dutch food is basically potatoes with vegetables and meat, but I also like to cook Italian food. Of course no meal is complete without a glass of wine..:-)
A few times I also have invited friends for dinner at my apartment.
But mostly I either go out with friends/family or have food at their place.
One outside dinner deserves special mention. It has become a tradition that during my stay in Holland, I have a more or less “special” dinner with my lady friend Yolanda. She knows about the fashionable restaurants..:-) This time we had dinner in restaurant Dwars. They specialize in serving beer(!) instead of wine with the various courses. It was a good choice, the food was delicious, the service very friendly, and it was value for money.
This is really a restaurant you should try, when in Amsterdam. Even when you think, like me, that wine suits a dinner better… 🙂
Here is a selection of food pictures with family and/or /friends.
Did I gain weight? Yes, but surprisingly little 😉
Great looking food Jan. Well a good appetite shows that you are in good health, that’s what I always believe.
Sorry, Jan but “no culture, just food” isn’t that a contradiction of terms? (or at least a very dutch thing to say 😉
But they’re very nice pictures and my salivary glands concur.
Haha, Bas, you are right. Must be my calvinist upbringing…:-)
