The worst meal ever!!

When we finished our visit to the Acropolis, we found a bar and watched the sun set changing the colour of the stone on the Parthenon. Mark had a pint of Mythos and I had a Radler (lemon beer). Why on earth can't we get this in the UK??

We then headed back to our apartment. We were still full from our food tour so didn't want much to eat. We called at the minimarket round the corner from our digs. I fancied some soup. The only kind they had was a powdered tomato 🍅 soup with tiny pieces of pasta in it. It sounded ideal so armed with that and a fresh crusty loaf, we made our way home.

I used Google translate to tell me what the Greek cooking instructions meant (isn't technology wonderful??). I followed the recipe to the letter but the result tasted and looked like dirty washing up water!! It was inedible! Good job we weren't hungry!

We finished the day with the obligatory annual watch of Love Actually - our favourite Christmas movie. Over the years, we have watched it in many unusual places including the Gambia, Cat Ba Island in Vietnam, and Rome. Last year, we went to a screening with full live orchestra at the Barbican in York 😀Leer más
