Flammekueche

 

This is fmammekueche, aka tarte flambée. Traditional and much beloved Alsatian dish. Some nincompoops call it the Alsatian pizza... Bread dough, sour cream, fromage blanc (cottage cheese), onions, bacon bits. To which you can add mushrooms (tarte flambée forestière), cheese (gratinée), salmon, and so on and so forth... The one above is with cheese. Can be sweet as well. And here it's how to bake it in a wood oven:
Wanna try it yourself? Just google: Alsatian tarte flambee recipe. It is absolutely DELICIOUS!!!

August CDP theme day: garden

My favorite type of gardens... No maintenance or TLC needed... Everything I plant dies, except cacti. This is the huge cactus garden on Montjuic hill in Barcelona.

Going for a boat tour

Tourist going for an one hour and 10 minutes boat tour along the Ill river. A nice way to see the town. I did it once, with a foreign friend, and I enjoyed it! It will cost you 14.90 euros, for an adult.

Bath time

After weeks of heatwave with a few short thunderstorms, October weather is on this week: rain, under 20 degrees C. Sheer bliss! Well, maybe not for tourists or holiday makers.
 Oops, sorry, this is Thursday's post, I thought today was Friday ... Newly retired guy's life: no Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays.... It's all the same, mostly, just ....days. Anywho and anyway, here we go, just click here to see more gorgeous b&w. Just do it, you won't regret it! The never-ending weekend (for some) starts right now!
