Vegetarian Plate

 


What I did eat and enjoy was this vegetarian plate, complete with, I think, artichokes, green beans and maybe a chunk of potato or two.

Fried Avocados

 

Uhm, I'm no fan of avocados. Sorry, that's just the way it is. But even I will have to admit that these fried "alligator pears" looked scrumptious.

Burrata

My very first taste of this unusual cheese. 

"Burrata (Italian: [burˈrata]) is an Italian cow's milk (occasionally buffalo milk) cheese made from mozzarella and cream. Burrata has its origins in the Apulia region of Italy. The dish was born out of a need to minimise food waste in the 1920s. The outer casing is solid cheese, while the inside contains stracciatella and clotted cream, giving it an unusual, soft texture. It is a speciality of the Puglia region of southern Italy." -- Wikipedia
