| Breakfast from Hure
|
|
|
| My pain au chocolat from Hure was still a bit warm from the oven. Good.
Also, the dough was appropriately buttery.
|
Incidentally, this was the fifth time I visited Hure:
first,
second,
third,
fourth.

| Yours truly relaxing in one of the contoured seats in the airport near
our gate.
| The view from the seat. That's our plane.
| Meal number one on the plane:
- "French toast quiche with Mediterranean-style vegetables" -
good. More egg-y than most quiches; seemed rather like a vegetable
omelette. The crust was very buttery.
- "Provencale-style orzo pasta" - also good. Rather like a novel
version of macaroni and cheese: orzo and cheese and finely diced
mushrooms and onions.
- bread - very plain, boring white bread. Alright with the
Camembert cheese, otherwise certainly not worth touching.
- Blueberry muffin - bleh. Didn't taste right to me. I left
most of it.
- "White chocolate tartlet with raspberries " - meh. I'm not much of a
fan of white chocolate, and this didn't convince me otherwise. I
left most of it. Again with the buttery crust. The raspberries
were in the form of jam in the precise center of the tart.

Di Yin was happy that the self-serve in the middle of the flight gave
out ice cream in addition to sandwiches.
I didn't partake.

Our second meal. Everything here was served chilled.
- "Smoke-dried chicken, Sardinian-style potato salad with simmered
tomato, onions and Espelette chili pepper" - good. I appreciate
that the chicken avoided the plain-ness that some chicken breasts
can have. I also liked the spicing on the potatoes.
- Smoked salmon with vegetables strings (onion, zucchini, etc.) - the
salmon was good and I ate it on bread with the "demi-sel pave frais"
(which tastes effectively like cream cheese). I didn't appreciate the
vegetables.
- Dense chocolate cake - very good. Basically fudge in a
cake-like form. Much like the Guu we enjoyed very much in
London.
