A fictional journey around the world of Eylz2021, Bloghound and Pichi28. A trip around the world to escape the reality that they are stuck at the confines of their home for almost 2 years now.
The girls' next destination was Slovakia. The girls were supposed to rent a car but @Peter-Molnar was kind enough to offer to drive them going to Slovakia even though it's a 3 hours drive that will cross a country border. They left the hotel at 10am and reached their destination about 2pm for they still had a stopover to have lunch. The view on their way to Slovakia was just undescribable, they can't find a word how to describe the beauty is laid before their eyes.
Peter was glad he did drove the girls to their next destination, they had a lot of chithat, and really had a lot of fun while they are on their way, after they arrive at the hotel where the three girls are staying and after knowing that they are safe, Peter bid good bye to the girls after he had some rest and coffee. He drove back to Hungary all alone by himself to spend time more time with his family for a few more days before going back to work.
The three girls stayed at Grand Hotel Kempinski High Tatras where it is surrounded by lake and mountains. With a view so grand they decided to stay at their hotel for one full day without going out.
Everything about the hotel invites them to stay more inside that's why they give in, anyway they been traveling for quite some time now and they also need to rest.
Pichi checks the menu and looks for the Slovakian delicacy. They decided to have a food trip while resting and enjoying the magnificent view by the lake.
After checking the menu she calls the Tower Dinner and this is what the chef referred to them:
Bryndzové halušky
This one is considered as the national dish of Slovakia, a Slovak classic as they say. This dish is made out of potato dumplings, sour cream, bacon, and sheep cheese that is called bryndza. The sheep cheese made this dish authentic to Slovak.
Butchy na pare
This dish is just like any other steamed dumplings only its filling is usually jam or chocolate, with melted butter, and powdered sugar or cacao on top. In other countries, they can consider it as dessert but in Slovakia, the locals typically eat it as a main dish.
Kapustnica
Kapustnica or in english cabbage soup. It is made of mushrooms, sausage and lot of red paprika seasoning, served with bread. There is no unique recipe for this dish, some add plums or apples, some add potatoes and some add smoke meat or different kinds of sausages. It is one of their traditional dishes but you can find different recipe in each part of Slovakia. Tradionally they serve Kapustnica every 24th of December as one of their dish during Christmas Eve.
Lokša
Lokša is their version of pancake that is made out of flour and potatoes. They also have 2 version of it, one is salty and the other one is sweet. As you can see in the picture the Loksa that is use there was the salty one that is why it is served with duck, They usually serve the salty version with meat or vegetables. Their sweet version of it is usually served with powered sugar, poppy seeds, butter, and marmalade or jam.
The chef also recommends that Loksa is good with Red wine that is why Pichi ordered a good wine to go along with Loksa.
Another additional to their order is the Vyprážaný syr.
It is what they called "trash of gastronomy" or "culinary garbage". It is a deep-fried block cheese (Gouda or Edam), served with french fries and tartar sauce. And since it is deep-fried it falls on a not very healthy food but it taste good. It is also considered as great hangover dish but no matter how Eylz and Bloghound think of it, they can't see the reason how it can be good for hangover.
Eylz enjoyed the Kapustnica, Bloghound enjoyed the Lokša while Pichi is enjoying her second order of Vyprážaný syr. They are also in their second bottle of the red wine that they order and enjoying the ambiance and the view of the whole scenery at the balcony of their room. It's been a while since they had a chance to really take in the beauty of the nature that is around them.
They invited @Jinifer and @JRamona20 on this trip and they are expecting them to arrived tomorrow afternoon, so the three girls still have another full day that they can enjoy tomorrow while waiting for the two.
