We'll see if there are any other options once I'm there. Cheers. Any alcoholic drinks that are a must? I see that restaurant has a lot of Pisco cocktails. If you're a soft drink fan give Inca Cola a go. I've also had Cristal. Which is a decent Peruvian beer.

No, not a fan of soft drinks at all would love to try Peruvian beer, but I doubt there's any chance of finding it here haha!

I'm not much of a drinker to be honest, but the most popular here are Pisco drinks as well as Cusqueña. 47 minutes ago, Anton said: If you're a soft drink fan give Inca Cola a go.

My least favourite though is probably Japanese, or at least sushi/sashimi (have had other Japanese food that I've liked though). Anything that so much as touches seaweed makes me want to vomit. Also not that big a fan of Italian food, though I'll certainly eat it. Favourites are probably, German, Thai, Greek, Ukrainian/Russian and Indian. Out of interest, what are your favourites of Ukrainian/Russian cuisine?

Administrator Stan Posted October 22, 2017 Administrator Posted October 22, 2017 looks good but a bit dry! Any sauce to go with it?

The first time I had it with mashed potato too, it was the chef's choice though, I'd have prefered it with chips or roast potato as well and would have ditched the sauce altogether But the meat was lovely and it was perfectly rare, really enjoyed it.

IgnisExcubitor Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 Just going to leave this here, but there are different kinds of Indian cuisines. Punjabi, Bengali, Malwini, Gujarati, Kashmiri, Hyderabadi,... I could go on and on. There are major differences in the way spices are used, and the presence of coconut, butter, rice, etc, depending on the cuisine.

Two bottles Passata, 2 tins of whole peeled tomatoes, Garlic paste, Onion, nutmeg, salt, Fresh Basil leaves, a splash of red wine, Cuts of Fatty pork and Veal Oslo Bucco to cook the meat flavour into the sauce. Cook covered on low heat for 2 hours. Start with pan frying the onion and garlic. 500g pork mince and beef mince, finely chopped onion, parsley and salt. Make into meatballs. Lightly pan fry then transfer into the sauce pot to cook with the pasta sauce. Bellisimo! If you’re gonna play it safe and stick with the bolegnese I’d suggest a variation of the above with grated carrot and zucchini blended in.

Are these Italians you know from Italy or from America/Australia?
nudge Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 Consider using tagliatelle instead of spaghetti.
