Random unrelated post

Me and my fiancé had our 5 year engagment anniversary two days ago.

He took me to a new restaurant and we had glasses of champagne (from some tiny vineyard) and a three course meal with wines (again from smaller vineyeards). A lot of the ingredients (for example, the butter for the bread and the dough the bread was baked from that day) came from some smaller or local producers.

Everything was delicious, the place was beautiful and quiet, the staff was great. I had the best ceps (with basil and gnocchi) I've ever eaten and the wine was absolutely fantastic dry white. The zander was good too, only slightly too salty for me. The dessert was an indulgence; sinfully sweet and rich chocolate cake with brandy ice-cream and banana. The accompanying sherry brought out the banana flavor really well and it was dangerously sugary, almost like syrup. The waiter told us the amount of calories per bottle and it was ridiculously high.

I will definitely want to go there again, even if it wasn't exactly cheap.

It was a lovely night, although I was so tired I had to take a nap before we went to the restaurant so I could stay awake enough to eat. :D


I love my man. <3





I didn't take the pictures, I stole them from their Facebook page. (click to see the whole picture)
