You'll defo need a king size toilet right after.

I think you can get reindeer in Borough market, from the place that sells Ostrich eggs. Also online

remember when Lidl started selling reindeer meat? no me either.

Wow do they still sell the eggs?

I've had putrified shark, to be taken with a shot of some weird liquor. Rank as FFuuuuu.
Probably one of the worst taste experiences of my entire life.
And to think in Iceland they call it lish.

Brenvin that was an experience and I think for the tourists

Oops, up there should have said:

Agedashi tofu. Better than average.

Not gonna get much tofu love here though, meat meaty

I had quite an amazing brunch yesterday. We had tomatoes with mozzarella and cabbage salad with cucumber and mayonaise, all kinds of meats and bacons and ham and then creamy blue cheese, assorted vegetables and loads of jams and croissants with butter and then loads and loads of fruit. It's one of those brunches that you know you shouldn't eat so much, but just can't stop. :)

We allow ourselves this kind of eating only on a Sunday, before a long walk or run. Otherwise, with all this sitting in the office, it's all salad for me. :)

Akvavit > Brændevin. Carawayflavoured, served at room temperature with rye and potkæse (old bits of strong cheese mixed with akvavit and/or rum and then left in a jar for months). Wonderful...

Mmmm yellow courgette salad tonight...

I had yellow courgette for dinner on sat. my girlfriends friend gave us some from their garden. had never had it before but was really nice. had it with pasta, salmon and some cream cheese.

yellow courgettes and lemon are bff's

Aquavit is served in germany ... but ice cold, straight out of the freezer.

That's a Danish akvavit and I'd serve that one at room temperature. But yeah, they get served cold here too.

How odd... was just looking through Norwegian/Finnish food (salted fish etc.)

Just came across this:
Poronkäristys

Sautéed reindeer with mashed potatoes, lingonberry and gherkin. Looks/sounds amazing.

Anyone know where I could get Reindeer and Lingonberries from?
