[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

YES!!
Down Bank St, turn left into Mill St, second or third shop on the left.
(PS. Brush up on your colloquial Bulgarian, learn sign language, or bring prompt cards)

Can't you just use Google translate and scan the name/word in the shop?

Or…now stay with me on this…just keep speaking English louder and slower, while gesticulating wildly.

That’s what my MIL did in Germany, anyway.

I found speaking German worked really well in Germany... (and Czech Republic, Norway, Spain and a few others you'd not have expected it to be spoken in)

But my ex-step-father was one of those types

Got to try halapa for the first time today courtesy of my wonderful Sri Lankan neighbours. Halapa is a traditional treat using kenda leaves to encase a sweet and delicious filling.

Tonight's version didn't have cashew nuts in because i forgot...

But I changed the stock from a vegetable stock to one based on mushrooms and miso halved the sesame oil and dramatically reduced the stir fry oil as well. Plus I added most chilli flakes. The veg was cooked as i needed tonight, rather than being reheated. The result was a much better evening meal.

Soup here for lunch. I’ve been craving tortellini en brodo for weeks so I defrosted some broth I made a few weeks back, added some onion, celery & carrot plus a pack of purchased veal tortellini. Served with grated pecorino & black pepper. As you can see, I almost forgot to take a pic.

Looks fantastic, I like to use miso in my broths too, it gives a lovely rich, rounded flavour.

My phone for some reason has no scanning. Off topic.
