My basic recipe is always the same - posted here. I just changed the filling. Easy-peasy :-)

Restaurant Session (in Hamont, Belgium): Food Emotions
So nice to be back at restaurant Food Emotions, from chef Mark Bonneu!! They renovated the restaurant, also adding a big terrace to the back.
...sitting outside. Very nice terrace!
Aperitif time! For me, a Jamaica Geuze with rum, lemon and pineapple. Very refreshing!
For Roger (the designated driver ;-) ), the mocktail Rabarberlicous with lavender and lemon.
Bread and butter.
As first starter, langoustine, green asparagus, sweet onion and a chip made of fry chicken skin. Delicious!
[Langoustine, groene asperge, zoete ui, krokant von kippenhuid]
As second dish, asparagus, burrata, rosemary, orange and almonds. It came under a smoking cloche, and the flavours were fantastic! Loved it!
[Asperge, burrata, rozemarijn, sinaasappel, amandel]
With the second dish, a glass of 2018 La Ola del Melillero from Victoria Ordonez and Hijos.
As third dish, pork belly, aubergine, pak choi and hoi sin sauce. Excellent!
[Traag geggard buikspek, aubergine, paksoi, hol sin]
As fourth dish, foie gras, rhubarb, vanilla and elderflower.
Gebakken ganzenlever, rabarber, vanille, vlierbloesem]
Sweet time: red fruits and basil ice cream. What a great combination!
To end an excellent lunch, espresso macchiato and mini chocolate cake. Always a joy to be back to this great restaurant!

Walking Time
For today's walk, we explore part of the first stage of the Matthiasweg. I don't remember where we parked the car (this is what happens when you blog 3 years later - can't believe it is already three years ago!!!), but will try to find it again.
The walk goes along a little river.
The trunk of a tree replacing a bridge - not necessary to cross, so no funny pictures of me falling in the river :-)
A dead trunk serves as housing for some mushrooms. They almost look like a metal disc.
Impressive high trees. It is strange how the forest has such a clean ground - it looks like a fairy tail scenery.
Roger, with his green jacket, is blending in :-)
