Cuisine and Culture
This weekend we went out to Limburg for some Haute Cuisine and Culture. On Friday night a very nice diner at Da Vinci in Maasbracht. A modern place with a very nice ambiance, where we had the 5 course menu. Especially the 2nd starter (red mullet on a bed of vegetables and saffron sauce, with deepfried langoustines and tuna broth on the side) and the desert (raspberry & vanilla souffle) were fantastic. As a bonus we got a nice ride from out hotel to the restaurant in a Bentley RT.
After that on saturday a one day visit to the Pinkpop festival. We saw: Moke (ok, but nothing special), Bad Religion (very poor sound, not very inspired), KT Tunstall (boring), Editors (great show, my personal highlight), Kaiser Chiefs (they were good, but not really my kind of music), The Verve (boring) and Foo Fighters (powerful show, great atmosphere). And when reading the reviews on the net, we should have really gone to see Voicst and Blood Red Shoes.
