abstract poet: Comfort Food: Bread and Soup



I won’t bore you with the recipe, but just for fun, here’s what we had for dinner the next night: Big bowls of egg chowder with bacon and new potatoes, along with an awesome loaf of crusty, chewy bread that we tore with our hands and slathered with butter. Yum.


The bread was from the Johan bakery in A8 of the Mitsukoshi department store by Taipei City Hall. I love their dessert-ish breads, but this beauty of a loaf made me feel like I was back at my favorite French bakery in Providence (and a bargain at NT$35!).
