Belgium

With a stunning number of pubs and restaurants, Belgium earns more Michelin stars per capita than anyone else. Flavors are strongly French with a Dutch-German accent. Typical dishes include mussels mariniere, anguilles en vert (eels in green herbs), and waterzooi (chicken cream soup). The Belgians brought the world the endive, the waffle, and limburger cheese; extraordinary chocolates and pastries. Belgian beer is diverse and superb; each type is served in a glass shaped to bring out its flavor. Perhaps most famous is Belgian lambic, fruity, dry and effervescent, and quality-controlled by the European Union.

About me:
I'm currently studying in England, scraping through student life... Contrary to popular belief, not allll students like to live on pasta and baked beans - and I'm proof! I wouldn't say I'm an exceptional cook, but seeing as my student loan can't really support frequent trips to expensive restaurants, I'm going to have to start being a bit more creative in the kitchen...
