Tasse de thé et Crepe Chocolat Et Banane

Location: Cafe Rouge, Canterbury
Date: 7 February 2010
Details: Tasse de thé et Crepe Chocolat Et Banane







Notes: Breakfast time. Duska had a proper petit dejeuner francais, but it was pretty much elevenses/brunch for me so I had this crepe with a lake of chocolate and a hint of banana. Not bad.

Beetroot and chocolate brownie and cup of green tea

Location: The Veg Box Cafe, Canterbury
Date: 6 February 2010
Details: Beetroot and chocolate brownie and cup of green tea


Notes: Yes this really is chocolate brownie made with beetroot. Cunningly disguised among the chocolate but it's definitely got bits of purple stuff in it. Very tasty, although perhaps a little worthy for brownie connoisseurs. This place is how The Warehouse Cafe in Birmingham should be - lots of choice, plenty of non-veggies to enjoy and a well-stocked wholefoods shop downstairs.

Polumesec and Red Wine

Location: Duska's apartment, Canterbury
Date: 11 April 2009
Description: 'Polumesec' with red wine

Notes:
Duska decided to make some little cakes which her family make in Serbia. The name 'polumesec' means 'half-moon' which refers to the shape when cut out with a glass - see image below.
They're made with lots of ground nuts and sugar, and turn out more like sweets or a sort of biscuit than a cake. They firmed up overnight in the fridge but we still scoffed plenty on Saturday evening with a bottle of red wine.
