Food Diary

I can taste food again!

May 10, 2009 · By Monica Shaw

My taste buds are returning back to normal, and with it, the joy of cooking and eating! I’m still not 100% – Bircher muesli, citrus fruit, black tea, alcohol and anything acidic still tastes weird. But I’m adapting. Here’s the low down on what I’ve been stuffing my face with this weekend (gotta get my strength up!):

Friday

Bircher muesli with bananas and yogurt

Remains of the Bircher

Veggie burger at Mildred’s Vegetarian Restaurant in Soho

(It would seem I can manage citrus fruit as long as its been thoroughly doused in sugar!)
