babbel

Restaurant Babbel in The Hague. A regular restaurant with cheap food. Service wasn't too good. I had a chicken iwth some tomatotapenade inside, which sounded better than it actually was. But after the squashmatch I had just played with Pascal and Peter, it was nice to have some food.

Engelen van het duister

This follow up of knielen op ee nbed violen was as impresive and sad as the first one. I tend to stop halfway the book and take a lot fo time to get through the rest of the book. As also happened with this. But it was worth reading really. It is quite sober and painful at times. Doesn't make you happy, but well written and credible. Even more bizarre that the writer, Jan Siebelink, is my former french teacher. He was describing the death of a boy in the book, this boy was in my class and I attended the funeral. The school that is described, was the school I went for two years, then we had to move to another building. For only this, it was already worth reading.

de kleine moghul

Best indian restaurant in Groningen! Though the curryhuis is also really nice, the best thing about the kleine Moghul is that that it is also possible to take-away food. Call and in 30 minutes the food is ready and it is delicious and more than enough!. We did this quite a few times when we had a show the same night. I loved it!

de smederij

A lovely cosy restaurant with a terrace in a street that didn't seem very busy, but was actually quite often visited by posh cars with even drivers. The food was ok, although my salad was merely a compositon of the ingredients mentioned in the menu. But together with our friend rose, Fleur and I had a good time and even got some chocolate coffee beans with our teas.

zomers

We had dinner in this summer-restaurant after a day full of strategic blabla in the Martinikerk. It was good food, but a bit too much. I had some fish, whcih was ok, but not perfect. Desert was overwhelming with 6 differnt plates to be divided among the 20 people that were left.
I have had several coffees in the garden terrace, which is actually much better than the interior... in summer it is best at zomers.
