As the crowds gather at Strasbourg famous Christmas markets , @aucrocodile provides respite from the chaos outside . Established over a 100 years ago , this storied venue held three Michelin stars in the 1980s and has won and lost numerous stars since due to ownership changes . The dining room centres around an enormous painting capturing a scene from the French resistance movement during WWII . The painting was given to the restaurant in lieu of having to pay a bill !

A surprise 6 course menu was well conceived , beginning with a well caramelised scallop paired with Jerusalem artichoke and a creamy whisky sauce .
Poached oyster is stuffed with an oyster ragout , served with a crispy pork skin .
Monkfish loin is served with monkfish liver pikelet , a seaweed sabayon and a Pinot noir sauce. Surprisingly the two sauces achieve lovely harmony .

An assiette of lamb and artichoke rounds out the savory courses with a light lamb and tarragon jus .

Pre dessert combines buffalo milk curd with candied fennel . Tart and floral .

Final bites come in the form of a lovely pear and bergamot and sage dessert . A few simple elements but as with most of the meal , lovely harmony Less

【横浜ラーメン 真砂家】
真砂町に根ざす家系ラーメン

横浜・関内駅前の商業施設「セルテ」の中、ラーメン横丁の一角に暖簾を掲げる『真砂家』。その名は所在地の「真砂町」に由来する潔いもの。1974年創業の吉村家に端を発した家系ラーメンの歴史、その直系である王道家、そして田上家の流れを汲み、2020年に誕生した一店だ。

ラーメンは、豚骨と鶏ガラをじっくり炊き出したスープに醤油ダレを合わせた王道スタイル。表面には豚の脂がきらめき、ひと口飲めば動物系の厚みが広がり、すぐさま醤油のキレが余韻を整える。見た目は力強く、味わいは驚くほど素直。体がスッと受け入れるバランス感覚は、やはり系譜に裏打ちされたものだ。

麺は短めの太麺。もちもちとした弾力で、スープをしっかり持ち上げる。具材は家系三種の神器「海苔・ほうれん草・チャーシュー」。海苔はスープを吸わせ、ライスに巻けば至高のひと口。ほうれん草は青みで脂を和らげ、チャーシューは厚みある肉感が満足感を約束する。

卓上調味料も家系らしく充実。おろしニンニクを加えればパンチが効き、豆板醤で辛味を纏わせればご飯が止まらない。ショウガを落とせば後味が軽やかに。ライスは100円というお手頃さで、スープと合わせれば箸とレンゲが止まらない。

家系らしい骨太な味わいをきちんと届けてくれる一杯。安定感のある仕上がりで、素直に美味しいと思える一杯。横浜の系譜を守りながら、真砂町という土地に根ざした存在感を感じさせるお店でした。ご馳走様です。

Da Dong - Beijing (China)

Contrary to common belief, peking duck is not originally from Beijing. Instead, it can actually be traced back to Nanjing, the formal Chinese capital, during the Ming Dynasty.

When the capital moved to Beijing in the early 1400s, imperial chefs brought with them the techniques of this classic dish that is to this day associated with the city.

During my days in Beijing, I decided on eating Peking duck from at least two different restaurants, to try to understand the subtle differences from each version. for a more refined take, @dadong_nxc from @chefdadong was first on my list.

Getting there was an adventure, during our very first few hours in a new country. Jet Lagged and still not familiar with the apps used in China, our quest involved stopping several strangers on the street, to ask for directions with the help of translation apps.

When we finally arrived, we were quickly seated and wasted no time looking at the menu. There was only one dish in mind.

The ducks are roasted in a spherical wood fired oven that distributes the heat evenly. The restaurant also uses 22 day old ducks, which are not too greasy. The result is an ultra crispy skin, almost popcorn-like, and a lean meat underneath it.

Da Dong is an empire nowadays, with several units in different cities, but we went to the flagship branch. It was a great first meal in China and a perfect introduction to a dish that I was eager to try.
