The ingenuity of Le Pré Catelan

I have a new favourite chef in Paris and his name is Frédéric Anton. It’s not that I didn’t know him- he used to be a frequent Joel Robuchon’s guest in Gourmet TV (I was a big fan!), which is unfortunately not airing anymore. Frédéric Anton definitely stood out from…

Ok, if you don’t find my tomato soup that exciting, maybe you will find this more appetizing? This is what porteños (the Buenos Aires residents) eat – a juicy steak as seen in Cluny ( El Salvador 4618, Palermo) restaurant.

Delicious hot tomato soup

Who could have thought that a simple tomato soup from a hotel room service can be so inspiring? Moreover, it is not everybody’s favourite gazpacho, but HOT tomato soup. And to be honest, I’ve always looked quite sceptically at hot tomato soups as they often taste like ketchup. Don’t they?…

I think it is perfectly normal to have very high expectations when you go to a restaurant which has 28/30 mark in Zagat (together with some finest restaurants in NY like Per Se and Le Bernardin) and one Michelin star. You do expect a “meal of your life”. But after…

If Paris is the capital of the French gastronomy, New York is the capital of great Japanese and sushi restaurants. When I am in Paris, I really miss authentic Japanese restaurants, because Paris simply doesn’t have good ones. I have discussed that in my previous posts – even if Kai…
