After a few days when winter seemed to have crept back into our spring, the sunshine has returned to the CDL and with it, the fabulous brunch, full of all kinds of succulent food.

Today we had a different meal, besides the main course, we had today, risotto with chicken in barbecue sauce, very tasty.

We also had a great variety of canapes, each one better and better, also accompanied by small cheese sandwiches and fresh cured meats.

Definitely, a gastronomic adventure in our dining room, the great variety and small size of the canapes allowed us to try quite a few and have a friendly chat about which were the best.

It is Friday and we always like to celebrate with a special dinner and we all love burgers, so patty’s Friday!

We had two options, the falafel burger with cheese and vegetables or the beef burger with onions and a special touch of colour as you can see.

Once again, the team of chefs from the CDL’s dining hall has innovated, bringing us a dish full of flavour, this time mixing feta cheese with a vegetable, aubergine. This dish was a big success with our students, although they could also choose a meat option and of course our fabulous salad bar.

The international visit to the dinning hall comes from the Andean country of Chile.

From the far south of South America, they have brought us the best of their country, such as the empanadillas (savoury pastries), stuffed with prawns or vegetarian with cheese and olives.

And undoubtedly the best, the sweetest possible flavour, manjar, is obtained by cooking condensed milk, the translation of the name is delicacy, which gives us a clue to its flavour.

Piadina it is a flatbread made with wheat flour of Italian origin, typical of the Romagna provinces in the Emilia-Romagna region.

Today we enjoyed two different types, one with beef and tomato sauce and the other with mozzarella, tomato and pesto.

As a side dish we had vegetable skewers with hummus and hake parmentier.

Our dining hall has once again surprised us with several options, so that we can choose the one we like best.

Among today’s options we had pork sausages in sauce, chicken with vegetables or scrambled eggs, tofu and cheese.

An excellent variety to keep everyone happy.

For dessert as well as fruit today we had a fabulous apple pie.

Last week we were enjoying an amazing and well-deserved holiday, but now, after a week back to the routine, our special weekend price was waiting for us, brunch!

We love that moment when we arrive in the dining hall, see our friends, and enjoy a variety of delicacies and a nice chat.

We love brunch!

Tonight a great Senegalese chef has visited us from the west coast of the African continent. She invites us to discover a delicacy such as maffe, which is delicious and needs nothing more than beef cooked in peanut oil accompanied by white rice.

To drink, he offers us a fresh hibiscus tea, which is truly magnificent.

And for dessert, a tasty fruit salad.

“Menikmati hidangan anda” means enjoy your food in Malaysian, and of course, we have done just that!

Malaysian food is known for its great taste, with subtle hints of spice and always accompanied by rice.

The chef today offered us three options, chicken, prawns and vegetarian with tofu.
