Ham
and Cheese Crepe
I’ve
only had it once, but that day
it
was the best meal I’ve ever tasted.
Maybe
it was the salty sea air
of
Galway Bay, Ireland on Inisheer
the
smallest of the three Aran islands.
Maybe
it was because we had just walked
seven kilometres past hundreds of rock walls,
past
the wreck of the Plassey, a rusted out ship,
and
uphill to Dun Aengus, ruins of a Bronze Age fort.
I
got the crepe at a little make-shift stand along the shore.
I
watched as she poured the batter in a large pan,
loaded
it up with ham, cheese, onions
and
some kind of condiment, folded it nicely
and
handed it over to her hungry customer.
I
still remember how delicious it tasted
as
we rested and waited for the boat
to
take us back by the Cliffs of Moher.
