Suquet de peis at Cala Joncols

One of the many highlights of my recent trip to the Costa Brava in Catalonia was the seafood lunch at Cala Joncóls. A team of fishermen cooked us a feast, featuring a traditional Catalan dish: suquet de peix (a stew with potatoes, various types of fish and stingray).

Simply divine! :-)

Chicken rice in Penang

Penang is a true culinary paradise. One of the things every visitor must do is try the wide array of local specialties, like laksa and fried kuey teow. One of my favourites is Hainan chicken rice (roast chicken with rice, slices of cucumber and accompanied by a spicy chili sauce), not a typical Penang dish per sé, but made to perfection!
