With no further ado I’m presenting one classic French lunch followed by one African, Chinese, Vietnamese and Belgian (or so they claim).

A bakery with a little more than normal, here you can sit and dine on a salad or quiche. I love this picture dad took from the outside.

Zucchini and tomatoes quiche

spinach quiche

Berry tart

Flan Nature

African, as I remember was Jamaican but with Pakistanian owners. We just went by this place, hungry, one evening. The usual local customers suggested us to try out and we did. Every plate costs 5 euro.  Both of the dishes we took were quite tasty but too greasy.

Best Africa, enjoy twice.

Not that fancy, but you have to love these places

This was fish with tomatoes and onions sauce, over wheat (bulgur)

Beef in peanut sauce, steamed rice.

Chinese lunch in china town, pork ribs in sauce and steamed dumplings.

Notice the Jelly drink, grass flavor. Hard to get the last jelly out of there.

On the same day, on China town which is more like Asia town we had a bigger late lunch in a Vietnamese restaurant. We loved everything.

The leaves and sprouts should go inside the soup

Shrimp flavor rice chips

Soup with beef, it's different from the chinese soup, I think I prefer this one as the broth tastes better on it's own

Sate vegetables

The sprouts over the sweet and sour fish soup

The fatty fish inside the soup

The shrine that kept us safe during the meal

The “Belgian” dinner was Moules (mussels) and Fries dinner at “Leon’s”. On Sunday night they have a “all you can eat” menu. We took three kinds of moules pots (Marienier, curry and creme) and it came with fries and first or dessert.  (18-20 euro)

shirimp rolled in potato with salad. The shrimp inside was too small.

Fries came fresh and were good, but we tried to focus on the moules.

The first 800 gr. pots were hard to finish. I gotta add that soaking the bread in the broth was the best actually.

we only re-filled once and couldn't even finish that

The dessert was belgian waffle. I asked if the chocolate sauce was also belgian. The waiter looked at me like I fell from the moon and said, no, it's french. haha. Gotta say that the waffle itself was fantastic, the chocolate not so much.

 Good night!

    Every thing you post looks so good!
    I once ate “glass noodle soup” at a Vietnamese restaurant in Berlin. It was so good, and the invisible noodles are like magic 🙂
