Nutella, beurks.

t' Boerinneke Marino, try that brand.
When I was a kid we had very soft choco spread wrapped in silver paper, needed to be stocked in the fridge like butter, spreads a lot lighter.
Haven't seen any over the last 20 years.
Then we had chocopaste in a chocolate box, once the choco consumed, eat the box, hmmm, delicious, gone these days.

But my wife makes the best Tom Yam Kung on the planet because she exactly knows how I like that soup to be made: spicy red from chili paste, the right dose of coconut cream and milk, limes and kaffir leaves from our garden trees, Thai roots and herbs.
She made one Monday 1st Oct, hours before I left for the airport. I do miss my wife, our 20 months young baby girl and Tom Yam Kung

The only village restaurant makes decent enough Tom Ka Kai, but I never had a real good red curry meal anywhere in Thailand (or massaman curry)

As for cheese, so many delicious cheeses to be found, French, Italian, Dutch, a very long list that would be.

At the Wednesday market in Wavre there is a cheese stall near the church who has St Marcellin, a cheese from a small town on the road from Grenoble to Valence, 2.5 euro each. Tomorrow is Wednesday, thus you will know where to find me
