Eet Tuin - Filled Courgettes, Hazelnut Parfait - Amsterdam, Netherlands

A courgette is a zucchini by another name, apparently. These were hollowed out and filled with spinach, cheese, pinenuts, garbanzo beans, red peppers, and corn and then baked. The zucchini was mellow, buttery, it's preparation a hint of fall to the summery red peppers, spinach, corn, and tomato pesto. It was good for what it was, but it didn't make me excited.

Now the hazelnut parfait (frozen custard) rocked. Sliced almonds, amaretto, fresh whipped cream, black and white chocolate shavings... Heaven.
