"Oz Emellan"

Today, my colleges and I had a day out of the office and we all went to a restaurant for some dinner. We were a party of 20 so to make things a bit easier, we had a look at the menu on their website and called in the order. When calling, they said that the menu had changed and that we had to order on site. I ordered Pasta Vongole that according to the menu should be fresh.



I never seen fresh, handmade pasta look like Penne. Not even in Italy. Others ordered a piece of cod fish with new potatoes. Apparently the fish was dry and the potatoes undercooked. When we tried to order wine, more than half of the wines had run out (expecting delivery, they said). My pasta wasn't very good, a 4 out of 10. We thought by ordering dessert they could make up for the bad main course. Sad to say, the portions varied so much in size and when we pointed that out the waitress got really snippy. So to sum things up... Oz Emellan in Helsingborg. Bad food, bad service. Avoid it!

Pain? Bien sûr!

I do appreciate a good piece of bread but this craze with sour dough bread has made me so negative towards the whole thing. But now I have come to my senses. So I just made two different batches. Let's hope they act the way it supposed to.



Apple is the base with both, one is wheat and the other one rye. I named them Steve and Charles. If you figure out why, there's a price...

Diet food is not that boring!

If you read my other blog, you might have figured out that I'm on a diet. I was fearing constant lettuce, carrot and egg white every meal but no. That is not the case. I know what I'm allowed to eat or not to eat so yesterday I made a fish soup!



This one has white fish, shrimps, carrots, fennel, tomatoes and saffron! Yum!
