A light bite Originally uploaded by itsjustanalias.

We went out for a curry last night with Covadonga, after she had told us of the existence of a curry house in the city, run by Pakistanis. It compared very favourably to UK curry houses, although chapatis didn’t appear on the menu. When I asked if they did them they chap said yes and so they appeared.

Cova, like me and Liz, likes food and she told us that her dad often brings home sea urchins. This afternoon we got a message, she wanted to know if we were in so she could bring some round. Some! There was a bag full. You have to open them by inserting two forks, using them like reverse pliers. The shells crack open, spines pinging off to far corners of the room, and inside is the lovely… stuff. Let’s be honest, there’s orangey bits and brown bits and other bits… I’ve no idea what each bit is but I do like how they taste.
