Sunday trip lunch

We went on a little trip last weekend, up to Conegliano, Veneto. It was incredibly hot and we were desperately hungry because we couldn't find a restaurant or a bar (it was sunday) but finally, we succeeded! We had lunch at the old castle's bar with a salad, two eggplant toasts and a plate of prosciutto and melon.


We really enjoyed the place and recommend you to check it out if you're in the area. Here is the website to the retaurant (yes they have a regular meal menu if you don't get there after 3pm!).

Saint Seitan Salad

Summer is here!
It makes it so much easier for us to make prettier stuff to eat. Like this dish: a hot seitan salad with chopped tomatoes, carrots, chickpeas and a little soffritto. To accompany it and stay fresh, we used the remaining chickpeas to mix them in a cucumber salad. We topped it with some mint and olive oil.


It's a really good dish 'cause it fills you but you don't feel stuffed. And it was good to finally be able to eat in the garden!
