glut:ton:y (n): the act or practice of eating to excess

tipped!

I never thought I'd say this, but I am a bit over food right now. After 3 weeks of travelling and non stop eating, an emptier pocket and a much larger belly, I am well and truly over the smell and sight of food. Ok, maybe that is a slight exaggeration. Perhaps I'll be thinking about food again by the time I finish writing up this post.


Our friends Mr and Mrs Wong came to visit us over the weekend and being large consumers of food and alcohol, I knew we were in for a long weekend of eating and liver bashing. We took them to our local Pilsner Urquell pub (Kulutak) and true to form of having eyes bigger than my stomach, I ordered the 1.5kg pork knuckle. I missed out on the pork knuckle when we were were recently at the Oktoberfest in Munich (that was the start of my 3 week food indulgence) and so was determined not to miss out again.


Served on a mini spit, complete with coleslaw, mustard and grated horseradish, I think this was the meal that well and truly tipped me over the edge. I had about four bites before I threw in the towel and offered the pig Mr Wong who happily helped me polish it off (well almost).
