"Hey, I wanna go to that market place you wanted to bring me"
And this was like for the hundredth time. I had promised to take Lin there but every time the opportunity came up, we'd already stuffed ourselves full from a heavy breakfast or from some in-between snacking. Typical of both of us. We enjoy good food with a dose of hometown gossip.
We finally made it to Marché after what seemed like ages.
"Eh, have you ever eaten snails?" Lin asked, not really caring for an answer.
A wave of trepidation washed over me as I answered her with a cautious no. But there she was, nicely piling the bowl up, making sure she maximized every inch of space available. I could only stand and watch in admiration at her enthusiasm.
The first thing we did, as we settled down on our table, was to try out the snail sausage salad. I had imagined it to be chewy and something-pretty-nasty... but it was exactly the opposite. I'm sorry I doubted it's deliciousness based on it's name and what I know it to be.
Our taste buds were further excited with one slurp of pumpkin soup, so rich and creamy that it was a dream come true.
Then, came pizza and dessert, which did not disappoint either. Maybe we're just greedy..
Anyway, check out our spread.
