The sweat slowly starts to trickle down my back as we stand in line at the Orangery restaurant in Kensington Gardens. It’s one of those late summer hot days and the waiting line for the restaurant is in the middle of the terrace, in the scorching sun… I feel the sweat starting to go down [...]

Of chicken feet and tripe

We all know dim sum right? Or should I say, we all think we know, dim sum? I thought I knew what dim sum was all about when I accepted to go for lunch in London with Alessio, Jackie, Su-Yin and Charmaine. I had not met the last two girls before, but we would eat [...]

Grote markt

Last week I went with my friend Fiona to Antwerpen (for those who don’t know, that is in Belgium) which is really only a very short ride away. Yes Christie… you can get to another country from here inĀ  about two hours… We were quite lucky with the weather as it had been rainy the [...]

I’m sure I am not the only one who judges every single dish we get before our eyes while eating out, right? Ever since I’ve become more and more involved in foodphotograph and food in general I tend to study the food that comes before me. It’s a good thing I am not a restaurant [...]

Sasa-lounge Almere

This is maybe a weird review as I have not actually eaten anything in the Sasa lounge (yet) but I wanted to share this great restaurant with you anyway. I had the opportunity to take photos here for an assignment for the city council as part of a project where they want to increase the [...]

Our typical Italian breakfast; cappucino with brioche

Sorry about posting an upside down photo on the post yesterday, but I’m posting via email so I couldn’t really change it. The day started really good with lots of sunshine this morning so we were hoping for another beautiful day but unfortunately the weather changed during the day and now it’s raining a bit… [...]

Restaurant Picasso - Den Bosch

This weekend we went to Den Bosch with friends, just to spend a fun weekend in a pretty city… We were very lucky that the weather was in our favor and it has been sunny the entire weekend, which was fabulous. I think I even got a bit of a suntan! Ofcourse we had to [...]

Lambermon

Last sunday we went for a lunch at a restaurant in Haarlem called Lambermon’s. We had been invited by friends as a birthday present for both Tom and I combined. So who are we to say no to that? The restaurant is located in the centre of Haarlem, but since it was a sunday there [...]

Ok, let’s face it; we have all had dinners that could have been better, right? But I do feel that this weekend was the ultimate in bad cuisine! We were invited by friends to come over to the cottage they rented for a week in Luxembourg so we decided to go there for two days. [...]

Vanuit hotel St. jacques in Puy-en-Velay… Gisterenavond dus met de taxi naar Place Carnot in Beaune geweest.
