Delicious Latin-American food in Brussels
If you want to taste some Latin-American and Caribbean food you should definetely go to Palasi Latino.
I would strongly recommend ceviche de pescado (raw fish cooked with lemon and coliander), Sancocho Colombiano (soup on base de yuca, potatoes, bananas plantains, corn and beef).
You should try as well Pisco, peruwian drink with eggs white. It's delicious.
Price per dish is about 16 euros. If you want to try this place for a bit cheaper, go there on Sunday. They have a special menu and you can have a full dish for 10 euros only.
Every Friday and Saturday below the restaurant there is a latin party going on. If you are a fan of salsa, bachata or reggaeton, that's a good option to burn some callories after the dinner.
The address: 171 Avenue Chazal, 1030 Schaerbeek

From the 7th till the 10th of February the 6th ediction of Affordable Art Fair took place in Brussels in Tour & Taxis.
The idea of the event is to promote representants of contemporary art and let everybody find a piece of art that will suits their budget. There are many pictures, paintings, prints and sculptures, which prices vary from 50 euros up to 5000 euros. The biggest household names are mixed with young, emergining artists. The atmosphere is friendly and inspiring. It's an event worth participating in.

Delicious Polish Cuisine in Cracow - Miod Malina
If you are looking for a delicious dinner or lunch in Cracow with a
welcoming atmosphere, you shouldn’t miss the recommended by Michelin Guide and very
appreciated by me restaurant ‘Miod Malina’.
In there you can try typical polish food but if you would
rather go for international dishes, you can try their big choice of very good
pasta.
I especially recommend typical polish soup made of fermented
rye (Zur) served in the bowl made of bread. For the main dish all meat lovers
shouldn’t miss roasted knuckle of pork, watch out, it’s for those with a big
appetite. For those with a smaller one a good choice are fried potato pancakes
with a meat stew and if you are a fan of mushrooms you should definitely choose
roasted leg of veal with chanterelle sauce. The other main dish that is definitely worth trying is a roe deer with a cherry sauce and grilled gold mushrooms. When it comes to sweets, there is one dessert that I can
never resist, traditional apple pancakes (that have nothing to do with pancakes
that you can try overseas) with a mouthwatering blend of caramel and vanilla sauce.
left top: fried pancakes with a meat stew 27 PLN - 7 euro
right top: roasted leg of veal with chanterelle sauce 41 PLN - 10 euro
left down: typical polish cheese made of sheep milk
right down: apple pancakes 15 PLN - 4 euro
Address: ul. Grodzka 40, Krakow
It is just so good.

Christmas time in Poland
Christmas
is already gone for a while, but the 6th of January is a good moment to sum up
a few beautiful and meaningful polish traditions and share some good food
ideas.
Hospitality
– Polish are known for that one. During Christmas Eve, around the table, there
is one extra seat, left for an unknown guest, because during this time, no one
should be left alone.
Christmas
Tree – traditionally is decorated the 24th of December, just before
the Christmas dinner.
Opłatek –
one of the most revert Polish customs, not only in Poland, but around the
world. Opłatek is a thin, white wafer made of flour and water. By the tradition
before starting the Christmas Dinner, everybody breaks a small part of the
wafer from each other’s piece and wish one another happiness, joy, good health
and fabulous life. Opłatek and good wishes are exchanged with all those
present, including family and strangers.
Christmas Eve Dinner is vegetarian. Traditionally there are 12 dishes and you need to try each and every one of them.
herrings with pomgranate and onion in oil
herrings with cranberries
pierogi
boiled dumplings stuffed with cabbage and mushrooms
carp aspic - jellied carp
sauerkraut with mushrooms
dessert with poppy seeds
(in this version Pavlova cake with poppy seeds, almonds and cream based on mascarpone)
During the First Day of Christmas and St. Stephen's Day meat is introduced to the menu.
