Wah lao. Luckily there is this hot food stall that sells roasted chicken and smoked ribs in front of a supermarket and we bought those and bread and apples in the end. Both Sushi and me happy.
Anyway,
I can't believe that I won't be going back to England to stay for at least 2 years. I like it there, quite a lot in fact. I am going to miss the people I met there...
(Wanted to watch The Winter's Tale, but it rained very heavily at exactly 7:30pm, they didn't start the show - but was rewarded by this rainbow instead!)
Food-wise,
List of good food in Cambridge / England that I discovered:
1) Chocolate puddle pudding at Henry's
2) Burgers at Barons of Beef
3) Breaded scampi at Eagle's
4) Duck confit at The Mitre (ask for more sauce...!)
5) Asian food at Dojo
6) Millie's Cookies
7) Fudge Kitchen
Fish and Chips - I have not eaten terrible ones, though the free chips refill at Harry Ramsden will turn you off chips for a while - no matter how good they are :P
And England is not just about fish and chips. By the way, traditionally it shouldn't be eaten with tartar sauce...
Actually England does have quite a lot of good traditional food. I used to think that England is barren in terms of food but I am completely convinced now that this is not true...
Now that we are in France, France photos!
No more sunflowers - they have all withered :( There is still a lot of lavender though!We flew down to Marseille from Gatwick Saturday morning, and had been staying in Avignon since. Other than Avignon itself (the town centre can be mostly covered in 1.5 days) we have gone for a half-day tour to Gordes (the town perched on top of a hill) and Sault (where the lavender is), and a day trip to Arles (where the Roman arena is). The weather was bad when we were in Arles - luckily we decided to go to the lavender fields on Sunday! It was hot and humid and raining intermittently... Getting ready for Singapore weather :P
Will be heading down to Marseille tomorrow and will be staying there for the next two days!
