Lunch with my son in one of the trendiest Indian restaurants in NYC – at least this was plan A. Unfortunately, it was fully booked, so we ended up in the cheapest Indian restaurant I have ever been to! How did that happen? I’m not sure, but we did not regret it at all!
The first time I saw chef Thibault Sombardier, it was on television and I fell in love, not with him – he’s too young, but with his work and his passion for what he is doing. He didn’t win the finals at Top Chef 2014 but nevertheless, he left as a winner!
Plusieurs d’entre vous m’ont demandé la recette de la galette des rois en français. La voici! Comme je le disais, je ne peux pas dire que cette recette soit la mienne. J’ai essayé plusieurs recettes, je les ai changées, modifiées et j’ai ajouté mon grain de sel. On va dire que c’est la recette que je préfère!

How did two chefs, Jeremiah Stone and Fabian Von Hauske – allegedly lovers of Cheez-its and McDonald’s French fries – come up with such a refined and ingenious menu at Contra? I don’t have the answer really, but one thing is for sure, they deserve their Michelin star without a doubt!
I grew up hearing that carrots are good for your eyes. It is true that carrots have a lot of health benefits. Several experiments have shown that beta-carotene and antioxidants, both present in carrots, have either prevented or cured diseases. The benefits of eyesight are less obvious. Unless a person has an existing severe Vitamin A deficiency, eating carrots will not likely have a positive impact on vision. Sorry to dash your hopes, carrot eaters!
A traditional bistro in the heart of Paris! Yes maybe… but in reality, it’s much more than that. With its joyful manager along with exquisite cuisine, this is what makes Le Bon Saint Pourçain a successful restaurant!
