"What I Cooked Today" Day 333 + Day 334

Antwerp, I find, is a really nice city to visit. It oozes you into its arms like a warm bubble bath. It is easy yet cosmpolitan, touristy yet classy. Yes, I think that I would say that Antwerp and I liked each other instantly.


But what is there to say, really? I went to the Diamant Museum. I saw Chinatown, the old Jewish neighborhood and the Cogels-Osylei. I explored the historic city center and discovered an old folktale about a wicked giant who lost his hand to the Schelde. Mostly, though, I walked around and ate. The sun was warm, the Kriek was cold, and the chicken knees, alas, were nowhere to be found.
