Gelee Royale for Violinists?

January 15, 2009 05:32

Tuesday and Wednesday I was again in Brussels for a meeting with one of our international customers. Violinistically, I was looking forward to enjoying a helping of Sirop de Liège for breakfast. Of course, this might not be the only reason for Ysaÿe's prowess on the violin ;-) but even if it won't help me, it won't do any damage. Moreover, it's really delicious.

Tried to buy some at the airport, but the shops at Terminal A did not carry it; I'll have to find a supermarket on my next trip or ask my colleagues to buy some for me in advance.
