Finnish cooking isn't THAT bad


With the Finnish (EU) presidency coming to an end, it's time for the government to host their summit in Brussels. Following comments by Chirac of France and Berlusconi of Italy, the Finns have sent their top chef to cater the event and show that Finnish food it not something one simply endures, but something that can be enjoyed too.

While I would agree that Finnish cuisine isn't always necessarily that exciting, I disagree that it is not tasteful. Some of my favorite food dishes are Finnish. More [here].

As an aside, I'm heading over now to turn in my final (35 page) assignment for this semester. After catching up on things I've been neglecting, I'll start catching up on other things that I've been neglecting, then hopefully I'll catch up on this blog.
