Chaos in the Kasbar....



Away from training and relaxing in Belgium Moonwalker and I headed out for dinner last night. Following the recommendation of the AA Guide we found a wee Morrocan restaurant. The atmosphere was fantastic and we settled in to the crowded room with a rather nice Pouilly-Fumé.

They had packed the tables in to prize as many euros out of the tourist punters and it was cosy to say the least. Our food arrived. Moonwalker, keen to spice up her dish, opened the tube of harissa sauce provided. It wouldn't open. Moonwalker likes a challenge and gave the tube one final squeeze.....

It was like a scene out of platoon. Harissa sauce everywhere. None on me, loads on her but even more on the 2 guys at the table next to us. Moonwalker was in shock. We apologised for the exploding tube. The 2 guys, looking like they had just been through a war zone seemed unfazed and accepted that accidents happen.....

We munched our food, which to be honest wasn't great, got the bill, paid for our neighbours wine and headed for the door. As we were leaving we made a dart for cover and safety as we saw another table wresting with another harissa tube....

Dangerous stuff that harissa sauce....
