I watched benjamin britten's a midsummer night's dream at the l'opera de Lyon last night. I am not a fan of modern works, and found it a little difficult to appreciate this opera intially. I also didn't read the synopsis before going so I was a little lost in the beginning. But things picked up after awhile and I enjoyed the opera very much! Definately worth the 10 euros I paid, and I got pretty good seats. There was even an orchestra there in the pit, and the sets were fantastic.
I can't wait for Porgy and Bess next month :D

I cooked char siew for lunch today. Yummy stuff! This was the first time I cooked pork, and I was quite disgusted after handling the pork because raw pork smells bad. Like, seriously disgusting. But yummy to eat.

And I cooked the best steak meal I've done so far for dinner today. It took me TWO FREAKING HOURS to prepare this meal. The steak was done the way I liked to eat steak: 1/4 rare, and the rosti was good.:D

After dinner, I popped by Florian's room to catch up on stuff and I tried some of his interesting food. This is russian bread with poor man's caviar- the fish eggs. Costs 2 euros/bottle but tastes just like caviar. I also had asparagus with mustard+vinegar, fromage blanc, and Camembert cheese. Yums!!!
