We were fed up of eating Mexican food on the go, eating only burritos out of food trucks can be somewhat depressing after a while. So we went to Mesa ...

Not so long ago on Grumeau
TOP SPOTS BY | Erin Patinkin & Agatha Kulaga, co-founders at Ovenly
Le Grumeau paid a visit to Erin Patinkin et Agatha Kulaga, the charming founders of Ovenly Bakery (Greenpoint – Brooklyn). After spending a few years behind the scene, supplying coffee shops and restaurants with savory-sweet goodies, they’ve now enjoyed some well-deserved success since they opened their own location and had a few successful partnerships with [...]

KNOW-HOW | Macks and Bryan, Chef and Sous-Chef at Rouge et Blanc – NYC
Building a bridge between Mekong and France, two separate worlds and two different cuisines which gather in New-York in a remarkable restaurant.

WE LIKE | A La Petite Marquise’s Brioche – Paris 15
In English, the quote of Marie Antoinette is often translated as “Let them eat cake!” because no American pastry comes close to the French brioche. You can find the beloved brioche in every bakery in Paris. To be correct, brioche is viennoiserie, meaning it falls into the same category as croissant, danish, and beignet. We [...]
LE VIOLON D’INGRES | Paris 07
French Chef Christian Constant must be a secret admirer of Man Ray as he probably named his Parisian restaurant, le Violon d’Ingres, after the masterpiece photograph made by the great American artist. Located in the heart of Paris, le Violon d’Ingres should be on your to do list in the city of lights. This Michelin [...]
WE LIKE | Eileen’s Special Cheesecake – Nolita, NYC
Dont be afraid by the grim outside of Eileen’s Special Cheesecake store. This is an institution in New-York, Eileen’s cheesecake might be what Ladurée is to macarons; incredibly good and dense cream cheese batter over a tasty biscuit – yet too thin. Yielding to a sudden cheesecake impulse after an intense shopping spree in Soho, [...]
WE DON’T LIKE | Billy’s Bakery Cookie Sandwich – NYC
What amazing devil could conceive such a demoniac combination: two cookies filled with a thick cream? Yes, it does sound unthinkable for our French souls. We tried the cookie sandwich at Billy’s Bakery in Chelsea, a pastry shop which makes delicious cupcakes. The result of the cookie sandwich is actually deceiving. I know what you’re [...]
SHAKE SHACK | New York
Shake Shack is hands down the best fast food burger I’ve had. Please note the emphasis on “fast food burger”, there are tons of amazing burgers in New-York, they might be more expensive, not coming as quickly but still better than Shake Shack. But the burgers they do are amazingly popular, don’t expect to avoid [...]
WE LIKE | Popelini – Paris 03
The first time I heard about Popelini, the first thing that came to my mind was to say the only Italian composers I knew were Verdi and Rossini. But Popelini is nothing less than a little shop located rue Vieille du Temple in Paris which exclusively makes choux à la creme. It might sound crazy [...]
