EUROTRIP REVIEW: Food

Kebab pizza before I tucked in...

And after

Europe Cuisine: The highlights and the lowlights

PARIS: Jem and I lived on Baguettes. You could get all different fillings from chicken, ham, salad and salami. However, I found it a little strange that there was egg in the chicken baguettes. Croissants were so good here you could eat them plain. And 10/10 for the Nutella crepes.

OSLO: Enjoyed classic Norwegian breakfasts here. The family who we were staying with spoiled us with a cooked brekky every morning consisting of freshly baked rolls, scrambled egg, salami. I also tasted the best home-made jam ever! The herb cream cheese was also good. The brown cheese was one of the strangest things I tasted on the trip... tasted like caramel - the last thing you expect when you put a piece of cheese into your mouth!

SWEDEN: Enjoyed a Swedish lunch out at Ikea and also at a restaurant. Enjoyed the Swedish meatballs and potatoes (Swedes live on potatoes). Not sure about the lindenberry sauce.

In Jonkoping I can honestly say I tried the most disgusting of dishes. Kebab pizza... wait for it... with fries on the top. The sauce was good, but the meal was way too fatty for my liking. See above for the before and after pics.

OKTOBERFEST, MUNICH: Fries with ketchup and mayonnaise, sausage, schnitzel pretzel and cobs of corn slathered in butter and salt. That's all we could eat here seriously. Together with the beer my tummy wasn't a happy one at the end of the four days.

PORTO: Didn't each much here because we were ill. However I can tell you that Portugese juice has to be the most disgusting on earth. Oh and Nandos doesn't exist here.

BARCELONA: Tapas! Loved em. Entre sized dishes and there were so many to try. My favourite was the potatas bravas- small baked squares of potato with a spicy sauce on the top. Paella was okay, a bit bland for my liking but apparently they are better in Valencia. Sangria's were good but not for Jem who is allergic to red wine.
