Continental Market

So the Easter weekend has a wonderful side effect here in Eastbourne.  You get the "Continental Market" with fun vendors of things and foodstuffs from all over the "Continent".  The French cheeses are here, the Hungarian goulashes and schnitzel stand is here, the sausage maker is here, the Creperie is here (Oohlala!) and the Wait, What???  Memphis pulled pork and ribs?  BBQ sauce?  Slaw and potato salad?  YES!  We split a rib plate with slaw and potato salad.  And it was darn tasty!

The slaw was wonderful and different.  It looked spiraled noodle like, vs  chopped cabbage.  Turns out it was made with Granny Smith apples and Celeriac root.  And it was really delicious.  Then Richard had a butter/sugar crepe for dessert and we were on our way to the Mall to get groceries.  Yes, we had plenty of French cheese, but no real meal makings.  But first, salami from the Italian market.  And LaVazza Crema Gusto coffee!  And then to the jumbo supermarket at the Mall for the rest.

We finally found a one cup french press for Richard's coffee!  And they had a cheap-ish sharp paring knife, which has been a big missing for me the entire time we have been here.  Then some meat and makings for peanut butter and jelly and we are on our way home.
