Relae

Usually, I don’t like posting nasty posts and I really respect the hard job chefs are doing, but you don’t come here to read my sweet lies, don’t you? One Michelin star Relae is considered one of the hottest restaurants in Copenhagen. Nothing surprising about that – its chef and…

El Celler de Can Roca

Two green olives hanging from a branch of a well-manicured olive tree… Beautiful, poetic and unexpected as the naturally bitter olives are covered in a thin layer of sweet crunchy caramel and filled with salted anchovies. When I travel alone I usually dine quite early, but as we all know…

El Celler de Can Roca

One of the dishes at El Celler de Can Roca… Definitely worth the trip even from another part of the world! (Have been quite busy recently, will post about it soon!)

Michel Bras

Many of the Michel Bras restaurant reviews start how it’s complicated to get there. Aubrac region is one of the most difficult to access regions in France. Once you get to Rodez, by train (a journey by train from Paris can take up to ten hours) or by plane, you…

Alain Ducasse at the Dorchester

Alain Ducasse at the Dorchester

From my experience, the higher you go up North, the less spectacular are Alain Ducasse 3 Michelin restaurants. I am joking of course, but so were probably the Michelin inspectors who awarded Alain Ducasse at the Dorchester 3 Michelin stars. I honestly doubt that the chef himself ever cooks in…

Epicure (Le Bristol)

Epicure (Le Bristol)

I’ve already posted about this restaurant a few times, so I won’t review it again, but for me, Epicure (formely Le Bristol) represents a 3 Michelin stars restaurant how it should be. Everything, from the palatial surroundings, delicious food to the impeccable and smart service was perfection.

Red Medicine

Vietnamese inspired Red Medicine in Los Angeles rose to yellow press fame when one of its owners Noah Ellis took a picture of The Los Angeles Times food critic S. Irene Virbila before telling her to leave the restaurant. Personally, I don’t think if it’s the best way to treat your…

3 Michelin stars pot-au-feu

3 Michelin stars pot-au-feu

3 Michelin stars pot-au-feu

This is the traditional French beef stew pot-au-feu, imagined by the very talented Eric Frechon (Le Bristol, Paris). It was the ultimate decadence of tastes and textures. The rich and luxurious dish was served in three services: bone marrow with celery purée, croutons and black truffle; oxtail, foie gras, truffles…

Hedonism at Hedone

If you happen to stumble upon this post, you probably like eating. Eating is one of the biggest pleasures in life for me too and since I went to my first gastronomic restaurant more than 12 years ago(2* Apicius in Paris), gastronomy has become a big part of my life.…

Dinner by H. Blumenthal revisited

When I blogged about Dinner one year ago, my post received quite mixed comments. Obviously, some people are big fans of Dinner and the fact that the restaurant is always full just confirms it’s an incredible success. Sometimes you can’t judge a restaurant having visited it just once, so I…
