A recently opened, international, mobile cafe is about to launch a pilot show on the Food Network. Based off the German concept of packing a little snack for the road, ( people have been seen drinking milk or orange juice out of the carton at roadside stops) Le Crumb's chef pulls out one of her shopping bags and tosses ingredients from the fridge and pantry into it -- then shakes twice, adding a little bit of salt and pepper or sugar and spice, whatever is needed.
Bon Appetit! Lunch for two! Or roadside snacks!
Beverages are cost prohibitive in Europe. A can of Coke is 2.5 Euros or $3. for 12 ounces. (I never charge Tom over one Euro) Restaurant beverages are also small, ice and tap water are only in your dreams. ( I think Europeans don't drink much because they try to avoid paying to use the WC (water closet/ toilet/ ladies or men's room, usually a half Euro or so.))
Le Crumb's specials this weekend included: animal crackers, pretzels, potato chips, fresh carrot sticks, turkey, ham, sandwiches- salami and cheese with mayo and lettuce, candy bars, brown bread (from the award winning bakery in Rattlesdorf) Coke and water. Napkins and little pickles were overlooked.
Next weekend Le Crumb will venture to eastern France and Luxembourg, maybe.
Before the weekend began it was felt we only needed to hire one hungry rodent to clean the car. After this trip it will take two or possibly three to do the job.
