Im just traveling back from a fantastic wedding weekend in the southern Swedish town of Åhus.It seems like everyone including the children can tell the story of Absolut, im sure it must be taught in day care. We discovered quite possibly the best ice-cream I’ve ever had in Sweden Otto Glas (I could not find a site for them nor much info except this feature in Sydsvenskan). I had the Meringue Swiss in a home-made waffle cone which was everything expected of ice-cream and more as you found the pieces of meringue in the banana ice-cream. We also had a great moment overlooking the sea the day before the wedding eating freshly smoked eel at a fisherman’s beach side house with beers. This is where I heard stories of Ålagille, a party were you basically have 7-10 various was of cooking eel complemented by copious shots of vodka. The eel could be smoked, fried, as a soup, boiled etc.. it can get messy, just oily eel and copious booze. Not sure what beer to drink with what food, well an online beer somelier is here to help. And to finish off this post with a sunny drink, Michelada, composed of light Mexican beer (Sol), fresh lime juice, Worcestershire and Cholula, topped with a lime juice and salt crusted rim. I actually had something similar once at the Fox’s once minus the worcestershire and lime & salt rim.

If wearing the wool from the aborted fetus of a sheep on your head seems stylish then your possibly also interested in the possibility of whole chicken in a can. Quite possibly one of the nastiest things I have seen in a while, it looks like hell in a can and some people were brave enough to sample it. I also discovered a way to anally rape a chicken on the bbq with a beer can in the name of food, which will haunt me for a while. Im currently on the train down to Århus, the Swedish one, for a wedding which will include a guided tour of the Absolut factory! Any other country in Europe this would be greeted with merriment and the thoughts of free tastings but this being Sweden, well lets say unlikely.. due to a small group of retarded people in Sweden who can’t enjoy alcohol responsibly we are all treated as children and unable to buy a bottle of wine on a Sunday.

Well miracles do happen it seems these days, not only does the face of baby jesus appear in a fried potato but I go up 11 places in King Magazines 100 most powerful people in fashion thanks to making this seasons key accessory - sausages. Yes the humble banger is THE accessory in menswear this season. As pointed out by a number of peers 69 is an interesting number to be associated with especially when its a mens magazine. If that wasn’t enough to put you off your dinner then check out some of the most gruesome comfort foods guaranteed to destroy any hope of getting into a pair of slim jeans - THIS IS WHY YOU ARE FAT. Supposedly there’s a book coming out of tasty treats. I discovered TwobobTV this week, has its moments, the only food related film I can find relates to Chef Ramsey . The Fox just sent me this link, a tasty little dance number from France.

So, Ive been even more infrequent with my blogs, I have to apologize once again.. Life just gets busier and busier especially with all the sun, its hard to be tied to the computer when there are spring vegetables to be eaten, sausages roasting on the grill and new kicks to buy. I’ve been watching too much Andrew Zimmern lately on Bizarre Food, addictive viewing, most things I won’t touch but the piece on Kopi Luwak was most interesting. Im loving the fact the coffee is made from coffee berries eaten and shitted out by a Palm Civet, when can I get it in Stockholm? You can always follow how great, dull, expensive, cheap or disastrous my dinners or lunches are at my twitter as I don’t have much else to say other than work, and that stuffs all secret so only leaves what I had to eat being in the public realm. Such as tonight, spontaneous BBQ with Mathias and the ladies, death by Merguez! Bought at the ONLY sausage shop in town worth buying sausages Taylor and Jones! They were a success! as was the Tabouleh. Im desperately in need of somewhere decent for lunch in the Mariatorget/Zinkesdam area suggestions please, its seems the majority of places are terrible except Mellqvists and the funny french style place on Torkelknutsonsgatan.
