My new dutch word: Gezellig

So I was feeling a bit homesick,but it was more homesickness about Filipino food...so f who is super nice to me, decided we have to do our own version of lechon macau! So today, off we went to the butcher (who was an organic butcher, by the way--I dont think we have that in Manila), then went to the Asian store to get all kinds of sauces! So we got kikkoman soy sauce, sweet dark soy sauce, peking duck sauce and chili in oil!



Then we proceeded to cook our pork belly in our oven, and see this!



Isn't it perfection?

We cooked rice together with our lechon, with the sauces of course and also baked chocolate brownies! we dont have pictures of the brownies because when it finished baking, we kind of ate it already off the oven and i forgot to take a picture. Sweetness indeed!

It was a very hearty lunch, i felt i was back in Manila, eating home-made food and its a nice evening for a hot bath. Gezellig. :)
