Saturday night in Brussels, a group of hungry Australians trek to a pre-booked destination in search of seafood... (lord knows how London have deprived them!)
They sat and waited, wondering what was to befall them. Then slowly but surely their confidence grew with the presentation of each salivating dish. The wine poured, the conversation flowed, and even an investigation/interrogation took place that evening (witness the trauma below). But mostly the night was joyous. With our bellies filled we carried our heavy loads home for a peaceful night in Brussels.
THE PROPS
L-R T-B: Shrimp Croquette, Eel with Parsley Sauce, Mussels Marianne, Shrimp (starter), Monk Fish with Leek, Mussels close up
THE CHARACTERS
Some of us didn't want to share, and that same someone had a mouthful that was too hot!

But some of us just carried on eating quietly and demurely...
THE INTERROGATION
Poor poor Henry. The victim of unrelentless questioning from Chief Inspector Yocelyn.

Nice comments T - it brings back all the "sweet/not so sweet for some" memory of Belgium
Nice to see that you still have a one track mind. Now it seems to be all about food, before it used to be all about coffee!!!!
Of course Ravi, I had to replace one thing with another right?
Coffee not good in Europe? You should trek to Italy, I heard they were master brewers. - Ravi
Hmmm, I would like to agree with that last comment Ravi. After one particular night in June this year... hehe
