Baracca, new restaurant in Leuven

Posted: 30 Dec 2015 08:34 AM PST

"Baracca," a two month old restaurant in Leuven, offers a relaxed but stimulating and interesting dining experience with fresh, natural flavoured food that can be shared if you so wish. It is inspired by the savoury simplicity of Italian cuisine. First time visitors receive a warm welcome and an enthusiastic explanation of what's cooking from appealing Pasquale Amoruso (Kiko) and lovely Anastasia Mironenko (Ana). The atmosphere when I was there was warm, engaging and pleasantly chaotic, and the food was delicious -- so much so that we ordered seconds of our favourites.

"Baracca wants to relive the authentic spirit and conviviality of homecoming by serving homemade woodoven pizzas that are best enjoyed in good company."

A few years ago I wrote about Franco, chef at Pepenero, a restaurant in Leuven at two steps from Baracca:

After a chat with Kiko and Ana, I learned that Franco is Kiko's dad. The world is small but there is something there that is in the genes ...

I hope they will keep up the excellent job and wish them great success. I will certainly be back there soon to share the experience with family and friends.

Walking around in the Vieux Port, Marseille

9:05 AM travels, Travels - Ballroom Dancing - Amusement Parks

We believe the Vieux Port is one of the top attractions of Marseille. When the sun is shining the place is excellent to have a drink on one of the terraces with views on the Notre Dame de la Garde in the hills. Don't under estimate the distances, the complete tour of the Vieux Port will take you at least one hour.

Some of the historical buildings are impressive and we enjoyed the promenade around the fort. The inner port has hundreds of small boats for all kind of purposes: fishing, sightseeing and just relaxing. Most of them are privately owned. In the heart of the port stands a giant Ferris wheel.

We zijn er van overtuigd dat de Oude Haven één van de top attracties is van Marseille. Als het zonnetje schijnt is dit een uitstekende plaats om te aperitieven op een terras met het zicht op Notre Dame de la Garde in de heuvels. Onderschat echter de afstanden niet, wandelen rond de Oude Haven neemt minstens één uur in beslag.

Sommige historische gebouwen zijn indrukwekkend en we genoten van het wandelpad rond het fort. De binnenhaven telt honderden kleine bootjes voor allerlei doeleinden: vissen, toerisme en ontspanning. De meeste zijn privé eigendom. In het hart van de haven staat een reuzenrad.
