To The Garden

to the garden

 

I found this little alleyway very attractive with the cobblestones leading to the garden, next to a tiny cottage. How English is that?

Casa Español

casa espanol

 

I have lived in Norwich for several years now and I have yet to try the wonderful Spanish dishes of La Tasca. How do these sound?

Melon galia y jamon serrano – fresh melon slices, topped with Spanish serrano ham, mint and a drizzle of honey dressing

Paella de mariscos – a seafood paella, with king prawns, black tiger prawns, squid, mussels, white fish and white wine, topped with asparagus, artichoke, peppers and lemon wedges

Gambas gabardina – king prawns, in a light and crispy batter, served with roasted garlic mayonnaise and lemon

Pollo con salsa – chicken breast cooked with sliced mushrooms,
in a rich sherry, white wine & cream sauce

Torta de chocolate y avellanas – a rich and indulgent dark chocolate & hazelnut torte

Tarta de manzana – a Spanish-style apple pie, with a sweet almond pastry base, a layer of meringue and a crumble topping

Being pescotarian myself, I can’t wait to try out all the seafood dishes! So which dish appeals to you the most?

Norwich Castle

norwich castle (2)

 

Norwich Castle against a blue sky always looks pretty. Built in 1067 by William the Conqueror because he wished to have a fortified place in the important city of Norwich, later it was used as a gaol in 1220.

Today it is used as a museum and art gallery. And I still think the dungeons are worth a visit!

Dying Breed

dying breed

 

With mobile phones taking over the UK telecommunications market, the red telephone box is fast becoming a dying breed. And this makes me quite sad. To me, the red phone booth is so iconic and I would miss it sorely if it were to completely vanish from street corners.

Peaceful Walk

peaceful walk

 

Having a cemetery right in the city centre next to the mall is still something that I have not gotten used to. But with a church just close by, it makes things better.

Would you cut through a cemetery on the way to the mall if it will save you a few seconds?
