Kanoyama, a Japanese Michelin-starred restaurant, was our choice to celebrate Valentine’s Day. I wasn’t expecting to go to the restaurant actually; NYC had just opened the indoor space and I wasn’t sure my husband was aware of it.
It all started at the counter of Gansevoort Market with a young chef named José Luis Chàvez – of Venezuelan/Peruvian heritage – who was making a Peruvian poke bowl. The menu was quite simple: basic Peruvian ceviche served in a bowl with salad, rice, or quinoa.
When I tried the restaurant Solstice during my last trip to Paris, I was sure – or almost – that the Michelin guide would add a star to its 2020 list. Not surprisingly, I was right!
Congratulations to Eric Trochon and his team for this outstanding achievement.
Hangawi is a vegetarian Korean restaurant – or, as they call themselves, a vegetarian shrine.
I am so behind with my blog posts and I have so many great restaurants I would like to share with you. Summer has absolutely flown by in the blink of an eye! I tried Damas during a visit to Montreal during Labor Day weekend. I still remember how we all left the restaurant so full we could hardly walk: it was quite funny!
I didn’t plan it this way, but finishing my stay in Paris with the restaurant Le Chateaubriand was perfect: a blend of French bistro style and gastronomy food. I didn’t read many reviews about the restaurant, but after looking at the pictures on Google I thought, if this casual bistro has a Michelin star, then the dishes must be as good as they are beautiful.
If you’re a tenacious vegetarian or, like me, a relentlessly curious person, New York is your city and definitely mine! Multicultural vegetarian restaurants conquer the market with different styles, budgets, and cuisines.
Excellent restaurants are sprouting up like mushrooms everywhere in Brooklyn and Oxalis is certainly among them.
Soogil was on my list of restaurants to do. I couldn’t remember why, but I definitely liked the restaurant’s name; it sounded seductive.
Meadowsweet was awarded a Michelin star in 2015, a year after its opening. The owners, Stephanie Lempert – director of operations – and her husband Polo Dobkin – executive chef – wanted their guests to feel comfortable in a laid back yet tidy and well thought out atmosphere.
