The Baked Potato Shop

56 Cockburn Street, Edinburgh
tel: 01312257572
This little shop lived on top of Cockburn street. When I said little because this place is so small, it only have one table in the shop. Basically be ready to eat your baked potato on the street or in your hotel. It is so worth it even if you have to eat it on the street. It has range of hot and cold fillings, vegan and vegetarian fillings for your potatoes. I had 2 fillings medium potato and only cost me £4.50 and I can't even finish it. It is huge. Over all it has good taste and great value.

Chez Leon

Rue des Bouchers 18, Brussels

If you are looking for some mussels, this is the place to be. Think of it as mussels from Brussels. There was a special for 500gr of mussels, fries and a small glass of beer for only 12.50 euro. Of course there are other choices you can choose from their menu. Their mussels with escargot sauce are really good. Pasta with mussels was not bad, but as usual cream sauce in europe is a little blan, need extra salt.

Even though this is a chain Japanese noodle place, their ramen and soup base is at the top quality. I recommend the Higomonzu Ramen. This is the ever popular pork bone based soup stock which is full of flavor and served generally with well stewed pork and liquid-centered coddled eggs. Also try their Nagasaki - a very rich and flavorful stock, but with hardly a trace of grease. It has a well balanced of toppings includes pork slivers, white-neck clams, squids, Japanese fish cake and a farmer's field of cabbage, chives and mushrooms. Made this dish hearty but healthy supper.
