You are what you eat...

And this may explain why belgian are so weird-looking :-P

look what I have been served for lunch today:

yes, you see correctly, in the upper right corner there's actually a cluster of four fried meatballs, surrounded by an army of... caramellised cherries, of the kind we italians would only dream of putting on ice creams (we call them amarene)

now, it was, surprisingly, good. the contrast betwee the sweet/sour of cherries and the fried meatballss was pleasant... if you like that kind of thing.

now, i don't know what piint I actually want to make, just wanted to bring to your knowledge that diversity in cuisines is even larger than in chemistry! ugh!
