Nu mananc fructe de mare martie 29, 2008

Nu mananc fructe de mare, cu exceptia calamarilor rondele, fara tentacule, etc., nu mananc caracatita, nu mananc melci, nu mananc scoici, nu mananc stridii. Pestele alb imi place, de asemenea somonul crud sau afumat. Mi-am amintit de meniurile din Cipru care invariabil se invarteau in jurul crevetilor, homarilor, caracatitei, etc. Mi s-a intamplat sa ma pacalesc si sa gust din trupusorul roz al unui crevete, sa-l simt cum imi crantane in dinti, nu-i rau la gust, dar nu pot sa-l inghit.

Despre caracatite am o poveste stranie de tot. O familie care obisnuia sa prinda caracatite m-a invitat la masa. Copiii erau foarte fericiti ca fusesera la pescuit. Doamna Kantzelaris, profesoara de limba greaca, m-a invitat in bucatarie, ca eram de-a casei, a dat la o parte de pe masa ovala carti, caiete, ciorapi de-ai copiilor ei, a pus un taler mare pe masa, dupa care, dintr-o oala a scos niste tentacule imense de caracatita, rozalii si bine fierte si le-a pus pe taler. Eu am crezut ca fac criza de ficat la vederea chestiunilor acelora roz cu urme de ventuze, simteam ca mor acolo in bucataria cu aroma de caracatita aburinda, nu stiu cum m-am scuzat si mai ales cum am nimerit usa, dar am plecat mancand pamantul si pana-n ziua de azi n-am mai pus gura pe caracatita. A doua zi cand m-am intalnit cu George Kantzelaris, imi spunea ca regreta faptul ca n-am stat cu ei la masa sa mananc caracatita, ca a fost delicioasa, pescuita chiar de ei, proaspata si frageda. Marturisesc, ca si astazi, cand imi aduc aminte, stomacul meu se impotriveste, ca nu cumva sa il tradez.

Hotel Hillton-Athenee Palace

 

Story about Hotel Athenee Palace
Once upon a time, an old hotel in the heart of Bucharest town, named Athenee Palace. I used to come here with Mr Grigori Scopelitis from Cyprus, who was one of my dearest business partner. An old fashioned gentleman, who lived his life bying textiles from all over the world. He had a very nice wife, a real lady, speaking french and english as well. He had two girls, not boys unfortunatelly and he was very upset not having a real support for the future business after his retirement. He was also very sad because the only grand daughter they had, was retarded. Such nice people with so big troubles. They were leaving in Nicosia, in a beautifull house, but after some years they have been obliged to sell the house and to replace it with a smaller flat. His wife was calling him Gregoire, french spell.

I remember that when I was visiting them in Cyprus, they were always inviting me for dinner, we were ordering together a tornedo, and sharing it. After the dinner we were visiting their house for coffee and dessert, because Mrs Scopelitis was preparing herself the cakes. Now, Mr Scopelitis passed away since some years ago, already and only nice memories remained.
