Just a short little article today, because the heat is killing me. Last Sunday we went to a small food festival at the Belgian coast. We had some really delicious food that was prepared by some of the top chefs of the region. You can't really see it on the pictures, but it was really crowded at the food festival, so I had to take pictures from some weird angles.
These first 2 dishes we tried were simply amazing. The one on the left is a lobster ravioli, topped with a truffle sauce. On the right, you can see a cod dish with mini scallops and shrimp, topped with nantua sauce.
Enough with the fancy food, so we opted to get some nice looking burgers and tacos instead. Mind you, these tacos are probably not the same as you would find in the US or Mexico. Not spicy at all and I doubt that the guacamole was home-made, still pretty good though. The burgers weren't that special, I've had better.
The Belgian coast isn't really that special, usually it's way too crowded to really enjoy it. At least when you stay at some of the touristy towns. The beach itself is pretty nice and stretched out. I'm personally not a big fan of the 'ugly' coastline, way too many apartment buildings. But still, it's nice for a 1 or 2 day visit and there are usually a lot of activities.
