I'm into food (especially when i'm travelling) and booze (i'm kind of a beer geek).
As there is not a lot about food on the forum, i give it a go.
My 5 favourite food ingredients are : mango, koriander, black blood sausage, oysters and rucola.
According to beers, i'm not really into abbaybeers, triples or trappistes - i prefer the sour lambic- or gueuzestyle (made by spontaneus fermentation as they say). Some of my favourite beers are : lambic of Cantillon, gueze of Tilquin, gueuze of Boon (any gueuze which is not sweetened), Rodenbach Caractère Rouge (sour red/brown), De Ranke Kriek (sour wild/ale), Troubadour Magma (imperial double/IPA).
perhaps it's not best that I be thinking about food and alcohol while hungover, i'll go ahead and say my favorite food is cheese - broad, yeah, but whatever. maybe asiago specifically.
This weekend there is a small streetfood-festival in my city (Ghent).
I tried the Vietnamese Pho Bo (soup with meat, noodles and herbs). No match to the ones i've tasted in Vietnam. As those who made the soup write bestsellers about 'streetfood' in Hanoi, Singapore, New York and Bangkok my expectations were very high (you find their books everywhere on planet earth). In the end someone was very disappointed. Bland ! Arggh.
I was more lucky at an indian street food truck, where i've tasted some real good Bombay chicken curry. As one of my familymembers is not very keen on all those exotic things, i was also lucky to taste some great cheese.
Drinks of the weekend. Two beers of New-Zeeland (bought in a small shop nearby - i guess about 20,000km's away from the brewery). '8 wired superconductor' and '8 wired hopwired IPA' (both IPA-style) : fruity nose, fruits and bitterness in the mouth. Real good stuff.
I think I'm the only person that I know who isn't into food and actually hates most of them. _________________ "I feel like for the last two years there’s been sort of a sonic evolution happening and I’ve been experimenting more and more."
Love food, but hate almost any American food. No joke, food is one of the reasons I moved to South America when I turned 18.
Favorite kinds of food involve curry powder or ginger as the spice foundation (though a BEA user suggested Galangal, which I have yet to find). Loads of pepper is a plus.
Booze.... ahh, see here's where my choice of country home comes into play. Guyana is famous for having what's considered to be the best rum in the world. El Dorado!
Ill take a bottle of irish whiskey, a cup of good irish stout, a vat of black bean chili and four-cheese Grilled cheese on wheat toast, and that's what one calls the perfect feast.
If you microwave a cup of strawberry jelly and use that on your french toast, and cut up a nectarine for a side dish, and make apple cider for a drink, your tongue is in heaven.
