Provence – Produits Frais de Qualite

It’s been a while since I have written a proper post here and I hope I still remember how to do it. I promise to practice more now and publish my stories frequently for those who are looking for nice places to eat during their holiday trips, especially as I have visited lots of fantastic places myself recently.
If you have any recommendations for subjects of next posts I would love to hear them.

Provence is my number one summer holiday destination (apart from my parents’ home in Poland obviously) and I wouldn’t mind moving there for good one day. But till this dream actually comes true I make a clever use of my holiday allowance and spend at least few days there every summer. And so I did this year as well.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to everyone. Enjoy your holidays, sun, eggs, proper family food and hope to see you back here soon.

PS. I have few new posts ready for the new seasons – Amsterdam to start with and then a fantastic place in Oslo!

Warsaw – part II

If you are really brave and are looking for extreme experiences come to Warsaw during winter. Temperatures can drop to -20 at night, there is usually quite a lot of snow as well but you have a unique opportunity to see this fascinating place in beautiful winter scenery and taste Polish food at its best.
I am sorry for summer photos of Warsaw (on the other hand while being here we realy appreciate some sun, even on photos!) I promise to photograph it for you as soon as I get there (at the moment spending my Christmas holidays with at my parents’ home).

Happy New Year!

Dear All

 We know we haven’t been here for a long time but many things have been going on in our lives recently… Changing homes, cities, lots of boxes to send, deliver, planes or traines cancelled. But here we are – for some time in Poland, enjoying Polish heavy winter with lots of snow and temperatures that keep you inside with mulled wine and poppy seed cakes.
We are back to writing as well and to prove that today part II of Monika’s story of the best of Warsaw.
Thank you for all your support so far and hope you will be with us in 2011 as well!

Happy New Year!!!

Monika and Marta

Warsaw – to try something different this year

If you are a bit bored with everything you have seen travelling so far and it’s hard to find another destination for a weekend away we have a recommendation for you- Warsaw.

I don’t think it’s what comes first to your mind when you are looking for a city break, and believe me, not such a long time ago it wouldn’t be my first choice either.

One perfect brasserie

Café des Musées for me is a quintessence of a perfect French brasseire – with rough décor, unpretentious atmosphere, menu changing according to the season and a great chief. I am sure you would pass it by without noticing (as I have many times before!) but this truly Parisian place offers the best food at Marais at very affordable prices.
