Country 31. Greece

Omeletta patatas - Potato omelette, Greek salad

Souvlaki, zucchini fritters

Big beans (gigantes), zucchini fitters, stale bread, artichokes, lamb

Pastries - flaky and syrupy

Spanakopita, yemista (baked stuffed vegetables), gyros, moussaka, haloumi, dolmades.

The food was great on Tilos, but a bit average elsewhere. The big beans were a revelation. I've taken some tins home and will be having those on my regular menu.

Loukemades (fried dough), bougatsa (pastry with custard), pasteli (sesame seed bar), halvi (semolina), baklava, kataifi (angel hair pastry).

The kataifi was delicious and I'll be looking for that back in Melbourne. The rest of the pastries were tasty, but quite similar in flavour, being flaky and syrupy.

Country 30. Taiwan

Taiwan Jiang

 Taro pancake - sweet and delicious

 Crispy squid balls - chewy and not very tasty

Rainbow vegetable stir fry

 Satay beef noodle stir fry - spicy and not very satay

The food was mostly tasty, but nothing special. The staff watched us eat, which was a bit freaky. The gay waiter who regaled us with tales of being a new drag queen and being out on the scene, was entertaining.

Country 29. Korea

Sikhye - traditional rice punch

Kimchi Fries

Mushroom salad

Korean BBQ set (blogegi, skirt steak, pork belly, pickles, bao buns)

Seoul Soul in Northcote provided a good atmosphere with very cheerful and prompt service. The only drawback was the stool seating, which made my back ache. The Korean music was fun too. The food was delicious and the rice punch surprisingly tasty. the only disappointment was the kimchi fries. The kimchi was very spicy and the fries a bit bland without it.

Country 28. Netherlands

Stroopwafels

Snert - pea soup

Koeken - like thick pancakes

Chips with mayo

Poofers and waffles - so many choices of toppings

Herring

Olliebollen - doughnuts

Stamppot - meatballs on potatoes

Hagelslag varieties

Cafe Winkel's famous apple pie

We enjoyed sampling all that Amsterdam had to offer. I found the sweet treats were delicious, but the savoury ones were less tasty.

My favourite was the banana frita!
