October 3rd

One more day at the Food and Wine Festival. Here is my review of the festival. The best things I ate today were: the lobster claw from Hops and Barley (United States)


the coq au vin from France


the pumpkin mousse from Hops and Barley


and the white chocolate mousse from Desserts and Champagne (pictured left)

Spent most of the day at Epcot for the Food and Wine Festival. We ended up doing more drinking than eating.

Oh, glorious cheese!


Spent the day in Maastricht, Netherlands. The weather finally co-operated. It was the perfect day for an outdoor lunch at a cafe.


Saw a concert band perform in a square, and went to a very cool food shop.


And snapped probably my best indoor shot of a cathedral. It's so hard when the lighting is that dim.

Another thing we did on our first day in Belgium was try a lot of beer. The most unique was this cherry beer, which is a Belgium specialty.

Cooking with alcohol - I love it!
