Canadian Food! カナダ料理?
Today I went out for lunch with a friend. The destination? A place not too far from my apartment, called Gagnon. Now, for those of you in southern Manitoba checking this out, you know this is a last name... a French last name. Apparently the owner is from Quebec... anyways, the food was pretty tasty, although there was maple in EVERYTHING! I was so surprised! The sandwich (a BLT) included bacon fried in maple syrup, as well as a sauce that had maple syrup in it. And the soup was a cream-based soup, but it also apparently had maple syrup in it. The dessert, it goes without saying, also had syrup in it, and the drink? Hot maple - basically like maple syrup that has been heated and watered down. Surprisingly it was a great meal. I don't feel more Canadian today, but I enjoyed the "taste of home" (though I have never used maple syrup in my cooking)! Go to Gagnon for some good "home cooking" (whatever that means) in Sapporo, my fellow Canadians!
いつも「カナダ料理は何がありますか」と聞かれるけどどう答えたら良いかわからない!けど今日は、近所にあるメープルシロップのお店に行って来ました。ギャニオンのオーナーさんはカナダのケベック州出身だそうです。で、たくさんの美味しい飲み物を提供しています。ホットメープルとか、メープルチャイティー(今度は飲みたいですね!)とか、いろいろありますが、毎週金曜日がランチデーです。メニューから好きな食事を選んで、スープ、デザート、ドリンク(紅茶かホットメープル)が付いています。その値段はなんと、800円です!安い!しかも美味しかった!今回はBLT(ベーコン、レタス、トマト)サンドにしました。ベーコンはメープルシロップで焼いて、サンドイッチのソースもメープルシロップを使用しているそうです。それに、今日のクリームスープにメープルシロップが入ってたらしい。デザートはもちろん、メープルシロップ入りの物だった。でも皆さん、知っていましたか?メープルシロップは普通の砂糖や蜂蜜より全然健康的です!札幌に来たら、一緒にギャニオンに行きましょう!
