It's Fresh, It's French & It Rocks

Sometimes all it takes is ham and cheese to make me happy. And I trust I’m not only one that shares this thought. The numerous permutations that this trusty combination has taken humble or posh, is well, countless. The French have their croque-monsieur and the croque-madame if you are in an eggy mood, the Italians are the land of ham and cheese and the ubiquitous ham-kaas tosties in the cafés Amsterdam… these are just a few that I can think of at the moment.

I have good memories of cutting out of class to hang out with KD, to share a cuppa, which is usually accompanied with a ham-kaas tosti (probably the most often used dutch words by us) where we talked about everything and nothing. Whilst I very unfortunately do not have that privilege anymore, I’ve found a good equivalent. This ham & cheese rocks my lunch-time world: the ‘authentic’ tartine from Fre(n)sh Café.

  5. Ah meat and dairy on bread. My choice last meal in the making. Tapas Tree has this Smoked Salmon on baguette appetizer which I absolutely love to death.
