BROTH
Godfrey of Bouillon, born on September 18, 1060, was Duke of Lower Lorraine from 1089 to 1100, but even more importantly one of the leaders of the First Crusade. He was proclaimed the first king of Jerusalem but refused that title, preferring to call himself guardian or defender of the Holy Sepulchre. He was born […]

EATING OUT WHILE TRAVELING
Eating out when traveling is always a party, and if it’s not, you should make it a party! It depends of course on the destination, but also on what you choose. I always try to keep it as local as possible and look for dishes that I suspect the chef on duty is good at. […]
CANELÉ
Looking for inspiration I ‘walk’ through the menu of the Gastrobar, my eye falls on the canelés, and I love them! I once got a beautiful book from Santa Claus; ‘Le grand livre de la cuisine Française, recettes de bourgeoises et populares’ by Jean François Piège, a great French chef. A kind of Standard Work, […]

Or what about the terrace on the Amstel in Ouderkerk… also wonderful, but you also want to spend an evening at home. Wear old trousers, flip flops, crackling fire…, […]

EATING ON A ROADTRIP
Summer may not be the best time for a city vacation, but the fact is that a city like Paris is emptied of local residents and taken over by tourists. Personally, I find cities impossible to do for more than 24 hours in the summer, but I like to make a stop in Paris on […]
BIBIMBAP
Today I am inspired by the wonderful journey that Ron and his daughter just made through Korea and Japan, with a bibimbap recipe. Bibimbap is a Korean dish with rice, beef, vegetables, kimchee, raw egg and gochujang sauce in the base, and then you can add all kinds of condiments. The first time I ate […]
