Mullets and a salad

I had a day off, so there’s time to try out a new recipe. Not that this recipe takes that much time to make, but today I have time to visit the Albert Cuijp market and buy some different fish than the usual trout. Today it’s mullets and this is how I made them tonight for the two of us:

Oven baked Mullets 
Dinner for 2

For the mullets
2 mullets
2 tbsp. olive oil
½ a tbsp. sea salt
1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves

Vlaamsch Broodhuys

After strolling through a thawing, but still ice cold, Vondelpark, we head over to Vlaamsch Broodhuys at the Constantijn Huygenstraat

Unfortunately they're out of quiche. We both order a mackerel sandwich instead, which are so very good we decide to also share one of their salmon sandwiches. Normally we just go here to purchase bread from their bakery; I had no idea their sandwiches were this delicious. We will definitely return to their lunchroom as well!
