powdery

Hello hello my friends!

I thought I could escape this pastel trend just by eating macaroons but it is just irresistibly delicious!

sweet things

for sweet people like you, my blog sweeties!

Forget about money, forget about the weather, forget about pastel trends, let's share some desserts...as if life is a tranquil river and love is all we need. 






These fabulous desserts were served after this exuberant taste experience. And! I still have not seen enough of the spectacular view that Le Normandie restaurant has to offer. However, I filmed this little video for you. It's amazing! Enjoy!
in case you wonder what I sound like, I did say this:
"oh, want 3 better" in Thai (he asked me if I want 2 flowers, I wanted 3 :)) and I got it!!!!!)
"Yes" in English
"Wow" in Esperanto ^_^
"Thank you so much!" in English

Have a pleasant weekend!

like a flower

Good morning everyone!

I bought some carnations during the weekend. It is getting hotter and hotter so roses last only 2 to 3 days while carnations bravely bloom the whole week. I love to have flowers around the house and in the bathroom as well. They look so lovely, don't they? My week starts as fresh as a carnation. Hope yours do too!

vintage flair

Hello everyone!

This is my first attempt on pulling off a vintage look! Most of my vintage items are accessories and I received them from my mother-in-law or the mother of my aunt-in-law or raiding my mum's wardrobe for things that she has forgotten. So I know the owners of my vintage "collection", except for this one! On my birthday, I got this cute checked dress with tiny rose buds print from a colleague who bought lots of vintage clothes from Japan. And it fits me like a glove ^_^

Le Normandie

Good evening everyone, 

So, this is one of the finest French restaurants in town with a spectacular view over Chao Phraya river of Bangkok. But what happened in the plates kept me away from the view. 


amuse bouche

seared foie gras


roasted frog legs, garden greens mousseline, crispy squids


salmon variations, tartare, confit, mousseline, parsley jus


braised pork fillet in aromatic herbs, preserved belly, Coco de Paimpol beans


roasted duck breast, orange and carrot purée, Mandarine Napoléon pan-jus




fresh and matured French farmhouse cheese plate Philippe Olivier


Isn't it exuberant? I was amazed by the presentation and service, as usual. Their new Mexican chef had obviously brought a personal touch to the plating. I was somehow overwhelmed by all the flavors that my simple sense of taste received at one bite. Not to the extent of what I experienced with molecular cuisine though. 
I always believe there is a connection between cuisine and fashion. Like, nice prints can be in full bloom in a simple piece and solid fabric work wonderfully with more complicated patterns. 
But I am always taken by surprise and I love it!

Have a great week ahead!

Love and moonlight,

tassels

Hi Hi everyone!
Today is Makha Bucha day in Thailand, we all have a day off to go to temples. I am still not used to all Buddhist and Royal holidays here and I am obviously so happy to enjoy this little surprise in the middle of the week!
