Last Saturday (Nov 19), Marco, Roger and I went to a rock concert in Tilburg. We saw two bands – Killswitch Engage and Bullet for My Valentine. It was a lot of fun, even if Tilburg really is not that close by. It is about an hour to an hour and a half depending on what train you can get. Luckily it was on a Saturday night, since we got home closer to 1:30AM.
But before we went there, we stopped by a small Thai restaurant for dinner. We had a 4:30PM reservation so we wouldn’t be late to the arena, but that meant we were the first ones there – even before the cook! We could see someone inside, so we decided to wait outside and see what happened. Long story short, they soon took pity on us and let us in.
This is my blog, so I can decide to start with the dessert picture. Check this one out!
Spekkoek and coffee
If you don’t know what spekkoek is, check out the Wikipedia article.
Although it definitely was not the best lighting, I took a picture of the darkening sky from inside the restaurant:
The decorations here are just a silhouette against the sky.
This was also a nice decoration, in the corner of the restaurant.
Appetizers to share – spring rolls and Thai (chicken) sate
A look at my food – chicken and veggies in a green curry, with a side of white rice.
My meal was a bit spicier than I expected, but Marco offered to finish off the spiciest part, the soup!
If you’re in the neighbourhood and you like Thai food, I do recommend checking this one out. It’s a bit small, though, so reserve in advance. They have a lot of takeout traffic as well.
And: good dinner choice, Roger!
