Summer savoury from the garden.
Mushrooms (half chanterelle, half king trumpet). More cream was added to the lentils before eating.

Gooseberries, quark, Iranian red pistachios (also in coarsely ground form on left), Cretan honey, chocolate and matcha tea.
----#3---------
Smokey aubergine pulp and "tzatziki" (quark, chopped capers and garlic, lemon juice, cucumber).
Turkish tandoor bread (bigger than a dinner plate)
Fish without chips. Hake fillets from the market fishmonger (the same one I always get oysters from every weekend).
Dreaming of Greece. Mediterranean-style food makes me forget this endless rain for a while.
Sometimes I shuck 1 or 2 but usually don't touch them until after the photos are done. Once opened they release lots of liquid and it just keeps dripping on the table the whole time.
Yesterday. Box of 25, bladderwrack to keep it moist.
A small price to pay for ALL THAT!
Anything more would be sinful.
