Rare mysty Posted July 15, 2023 #17778 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Last night Myster and I dined at Black Tartan Kitchen for their July 7 course meal. It was heavenly. And I got the crossword menu items right! 😀 1. Gazpacho - with a ball of tomato sorbet and a fascinator..... 2. Mollusk - scallops with ribbons of cucumber.... 3. Brie - Brie inside the pastry..... 4. Cornish Hen - smoked Cornish Hen in the pasta served with sauce and buns..... 5. Beef..... 6. Confection..... 7. Berry..... Final answer to the crossword....The puns may be terrible but at least there are no LINEUPS. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We walk so that we can enjoy the wine pairings. 6 wines over the 7 courses. However, the walk home definitely takes us longer than the walk there. 😅 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lirio Posted July 15, 2023 #17797 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Back to Manaus. Before start working, a visit to Palacio Rio Negro. This house was built very early XX century by a German gentleman who was natural rubber export to Germany. As WWI started, exports for Germany were blocked and he went bankrupted. He sold the house and got back to Germany. House eventually was acquired by the state government and now is opened to the public. The house is a very good example of the wealth and opulence generated by the natural rubber exploitation (The Manaus Opera House was built at that time of wealth). But the exploitation in the jungle was very, very hard due to the weather, fever, snakes, and other animals. To make more money the workers (who were paid by the weight of rubber collected) put rocks inside the rubber and the landlords to pay less, tampered with the scale in a game of loss-loss. Several conflicts happened. An English gentleman smuggled several rubber tree seedlings to UK and from there to Malaysia to stablish plantations easer to produce than going into the woods. The natural rubber era was gone forever. I also visited a small local museum where I foun these two precolombian pieces. The first one ia a rare religion icon (most where destroyed by the priestes during colonial times) and the funeral urn. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
