Proeft Rotterdam

Last Sunday my boyfriend & me went to a brilliant little food-fair in Rotterdam called Proeft.

We had a little walk around first, and then we chose what we wanted to have. At quite a few stalls they had tastings. I love that! :)






We first shared lamb raviolo with rosemary butter from Mangiare (can't remember the price). This was absolutely delicious! I once had dinner at Mangiare, and I would absolutely recommend this place. Delicious Italian food & very good value for money.



Then we had a pizza from Old Scuola. These two youngsters are on many markets and food festivals with their wood oven pizza's. We had the Pizza Pomodorini (€ 8). We found it a bit disappointing. It was plain and simpel, which actually can be a good thing, but in this case it wasn't. The middle of the pizza was very mushy and wet, I think because of the grease from the mozzarella. While the outsides of the pizza were very dry. And, as you can see in the photo, there were only tomatoes on one half of the pizza, so the other half was more like a Pizza Margherita! I must say though that the boys do look great, and it's a pleasure to look at them while they are preparing pizza's.




We also bought some stuff to take home. We bought a bread at Branco's stall. I can't remember what exactly was in the bread, but I know it had cheese and chorizo. It was very good, although I thought it was a little bit expensive (€ 6,95). We also bought a African Bobotie Pie from Pieman (€ 4). Very tasty aswell! And for dessert we shared a piece of dark chocolate brownie from High Tea 4 You (€ 1), which was extremely good!!

Last but not least, I want to give a huge compliment for the great pieces of fabric and flowers that were on the tables in the whole street! I think 's Zomers provided them, but I'm not sure about that. They made the festival look great and made it all fit together very well.
