I went to a tinned foods tasting event last night and oh my god it was A-MA-ZING. Five stars, would do again, and I’m not even a seafood person.

There is, even from me, a bit of a bias regarding tinned foods, and it disappeared completely after this. Everything was so delicious, from the ceviche above, to the sardines with mozzarella in tomato sauce, or the mussels in a thai-style yellow curry sauce.

As I said, I’m not a seafood person, especially shellfish (the hard ones, mussels, clams, scallops etc.) and yet this was like no shellfish I’ve eaten before. I expected, coming in, to not really like one or two of these at a minimum. But there was none of that. I would have happily had seconds of every single dish offered, and there were 13 of them! (including two desserts)

I’ll definitely repeat the experience, and next time I’ll work harder on convincing my friends to join me.
