Anke says: "Hmmm, lekker!"

It's a bird!

Goose to be specific.

Also, vegetables.



And tofu.

Goose!

Yesterday we went to the restaurant that has the best goose in the whole world:

Also we really enjoyed the Christmas window decorations:

Day 2: lunch and 2 dinners

Sunday was Fodor's day. First of all, Fodor's had a great recommendation for lunch: Hay Hay. The goose here was very very good --- everything was very flavorful.

For the first dinner, we went for tapas at Bocas. We had a nice Pinot Grigio, which we paired with...

... baby octopus...

... and some lovely sardines.

The eggs were disgustingly great, sulphurous like hell.

We've acquired a taste for Chinese wine, and must say the wine here is excellent.
