In a new country, there are always new foods to try. Some of them are similar but different, some are deemed interesting, others just seem plain disgusting! There are types of produce I have never seen (kohlrabi, pomelo) and other types that I discarded from the 'like' column when I was younger.
New Meats:
#122- Shark I know, an ocean animal in the middle of Europe? Well, it was at a restaurant in Budapest. It was like fish, a bit flaky, but firm at the same time. It also tasted like fish, with a slightly less fishy taste.

#077- Tlacenka a gelatinous creation, with chunks of meat inside. It looked scary, and freaked me out a bit too much to eat again...
#076- Goat served as a sausage. Interesting taste, but so much seasoning I couldn't really tell the difference from a pork sausage.
New Fruits and Vegetables:
#123- Gooseberry My student was telling me about the fruits and veggies in her garden and we came to the word 'angrest' and I had no idea what it was, even when she described it to me. It was a fruit I'd never heard of. So she brought me some to class and I tried them. They taste a bit like a grape crossed with a currant, but I think I am mildly allergic to them. I'll try them independent of anything else and see what happens.
#078- Fig These soft fruits are really tasty fresh! I googled how to eat them and decided to eat the skin and all. The inside is pink and kinda reminded me of the goo inside of a pumpkin, but tasty and not as messy!
#075- Radish I remember being at my grandmother's house and trying this red-and-white vegetable in her kitchen. It wasn't for me. At the amazing farmers market I bought a bunch to try. Why haven't I tried it before?! They have a great crunch and a bit of spice to make a salad more interesting!
New Dishes:
#074- Fischebrochten a sandwich made of fish. One of the best (and cheapest) meals I had in Hamburg.
