In October of 2008, I was wandering around Bratislava, Slovakia. I ducked into a restaurant by the Danube, whose name eludes me for the moment. There, I was served what remains the greatest culinary accomplishment I’ve ever had the good fortune to taste: a grilled pork filet stuffed with bacon. It is literally impossible to overstate the magnanimity of bacon-stuffed pork.
The service, however, left something to be desired. It took until today for the Slovaks to serve my dessert. Having tasted it, though, I must say it was well worth the wait.
