Parkheuvel

 
A 40th wedding anniversary is cause for celebration.
We took son and daughter in law to this 2 star Michelin restaurant in Rotterdam.
 
Parkheuvel is the best Rotterdam has to offer, dinner wise.
Absolutely fabulous.
 
Must be, for €750,-
 
Enjoy the pictures.
No better way to describe what a great experience this restaurant is.

Outside, inside

 
Outside it's below zero.
But I brought spring to the house

Kroket

The Americans have their burgers.
We have our kroketten.

Kroket is a deep fried meat ragout coated with breadcrumbs. It's an unanswered question as to what the filling is made from. Take a guess - Offal? Butchering waste?

Kroket is an extremely popular fast food in Holland and it is sold in all snack bars. It's so popular that McDonald's in Holland has a kroket burger on their menu. Although meat ragout is the most common filling, you can also find noodles, potato, rice and goulash fillings.

Besides from snack bars, kroketten are also available from the frozen section of all supermarkets in Holland.

Ofcourse I deep-fry them myself, but you can also put a Euro into the famous "Hole in the Wall" (Febo) to pick a kroket.
