Local ham and trout




Dead week for tourism: all to ourselves!
Burg-Reuland, Belgium, March 3, 2012—
THINK GLOBALLY, I say; eat locally. So tonight, after the amuse-guele — I've been forgetting to mention those, and some have been truly delicious — I ordered a plate of Ardenne ham, really superb, and a trout meunière, alas not. We were too stuffed, after the huge bowls of frites and salad, to attempt dessert. In fact, what the hell, it's Saturday, I think I'll walk across the road for a digestivo, and to profit from the wi-fi to post this.
