I’m currently on a work trip, and still have a couple more days to go until I can sleep in my own bed. Until then, I’m living off restaurant dinners, airport snacks and cafes. Just thought I’d show you guys what I’ve been up to ’till now!
During my layover in Munich, I had this great sandwich from Dallmayr Cafe. It’s a family-owned company which began as a small grocery store. The bread was delicious- very fresh, and I loved the flax and sunflower seeds.
It was simple sandwich, but very tasty.
Of course after a long flight, a cappuccino was needed!
I’ve spent the last couple of days in Warsaw. Remember when I was here in December 2010? Well, I’m visiting this city again. Between some work appointments, I did get out to try some places in the city:
Some espresso is definitely needed for the jet lag!
I stopped at a cafe for some tea and tiramisu. It was great to enjoy some time while warming myself up- today it was -8ºC! Brrrrr!
Although this beef tartar wasn’t as cute looking as the one we got in Vienna, it was just as delicious! It came with onions, pickles and pickled mushrooms. My favorite was the alfalfa with the tartar, a great addition.
Lastly, I had this fantastic, and gorgeous, soup at La Bodega. It was a creamy potato and vegetable soup, with a piece of fresh salmon (the pinkish little blob in the middle). The soup was hot, and cooked the raw salmon. It’s also a wine bar, with some tasty Spanish wines, so if you pass it- stop in.
I wish I could have taken more pictures of the food that I have eaten. But when you meet new co-workers, especially on the other side of the world, I’m not sure if they’d feel the same about the photo-taking! =)
More to follow in a couple of days…
