Chocolate and Soljanka

I recently bought some Ritter Sport chocolate on sale @ Zielpunkt. It's amazing how many more Ritter Sport variations they have than Billa, a more 'reputable' or better looking supermarket in Vienna... Anyway, each of these cost 79Cent if you buy two or more.
So on the left we have a sort of cookie chocolate, a famous Christmas-cookie called Spekulatius in milk chocolate and some spicy filling. On its right we have 'Olympia', with a yogurt, honey, nut and dextrose filling. The one on the bottom has a caramell and nuts filling. My very favorite is the last one, it doesn't contain the gooey kinda caramel but more of a cream with bits of hazelnut. Everything fits together here (8/10). The Olympia was also cool, but tasted mostly like chocolate and yogurt (7.5/10). The Spekulatius one is the least impressive, it does have a Spekulatius taste, but usually the cookie tastes better and more addictive on their own (6.5/10).
















Now one of my very favorite soups: Soljanka, actually a specialty from the former German Democratic Republic. I stumbled upon its recipe by chance and it sounded appealing. You basically cook some Letscho, fry some left-over meat (I always include bacon and a hot dog). Throw them together, add water, beef stock, tomato paste and some spices and let it cook for ~10min. Finally add some chopped pickles, cook for another 1min. and it's ready to serve... very, very hearty and addictive. The fried bacon gives a lot of flavor to the veggies and the hot dog pieces give you some meat to chew on.
















It does take around 1 hour from taking out the ingredients to serving the soup, but it's totally worth it. If anyone is interested I'll post the (more or less) exact recipe. 9.5/10 for the third decent soup I can make (the first is garlic cream soup and the second is french onion soup, but I save that for another time).
