What’s for Dinner Tonight?

Great day of shopping. Got a picture frame that made my head swirl and an old set of lace making tools. The frame is for DGD and the spools should make a beautiful start to a shadow box. We decided to spend the night and return to Germany tomorrow so still some shopping to do.

Dinner was eaten at a Belgian restaurant known for its fish but still serving some beef dishes to make others happy. We split a dozen oysters and then went our separate ways. Poached skate with dark butter for me and filet mignon and Bernaise sauce for GF. We came back together for dessert and shared a crème brûlée.
 
Today it’s a new flea market and a new restaurant in Brussels. Chose the place du Jeu de Balle/Vossenplein for shopping. Found a collection of vintage and antique buttons that should make nice decoration on pillows and GF went for garden pots mostly.
We ate our last meal together in Belgium before hopping on the train back home. She had a traditional Belgian stew called waterloozi and I opted for mussels and honest to goodness fries; totally worth the carbs. Decided to bypass dessert for ”bevvies”on the ride back so grabbed some cider before we got on the train.

Recently watched a Korean show where the chefs served skate Korean style. Can't say that's a dish I'd raise my hand to try.
Poached with brown butter and followed by creme brulee? Yes, please.

Meanwhile it's taco Tuesday here.
 
I have not heard of this. Could you share a little more about it? Always curious about new things to try! Thank you!
It's an easy meal -- ground beef sauteed with onion, green pepper, parmesan, and garlic; stir into cooked noodles and add tomato soup, amount depending on how soupy you like it. Bake at 350F until bubbly.

Actually, back in the early 80s, restaurants were passing off punched skate wing as scallop. I know this because I worked for a government testing lab, running protein profiles of the flesh; it's illegal/false advertising to sell something as 'scallop' that is actually skate. Supposedly they are very similar, and depending on the preparation difficult to tell apart.

Supper here tonight is grocery store "chinese style" sausages, served with a bag of Trader Joe's vegetarian fried rice, punched up with added peas, corn, squash, and green onions so it was both starch and veggie.
