Some time ago, my SO and I discovered King Marcel, a place dedicated to 100% french burgers. Two apparently already exist in Lyon. Burger joints are everywhere in Paris nowadays (you’d think that’s all we eat!) and they range from good to bad to everywhere in between. This one caught my eye with it’s cute … Read more
I just realized that the last “She’s got the look!” I posted dates back to last January! Wow! Time sure flies! I’m drawing a lot for work lately, but I haven’t been very regular with illustrations on the blog … so sorry! That said, I did try and take the time today to post our … Read more
The cooler weather prompted me to go exploring in search of a few more yummy addresses for the upcoming winter. I already have some staples for udons and bubble tea (which I’ll be drinking warm now!). I was curious about this address when I saw on their storefront that they had won “Best Gyoza award” … Read more
I’ve been fantasizing about gallery walls for over 2 years now. I’ve been pinning away on Pinterest all the pictures that make me want to recreate such a space in my own apartment. Our “Wall of frames” But it’s not as simple as that, for my SO and myself would really want everything framed … Read more
I’m not yet again going to tell you that summer is coming to an end (since it is theoretically only over in September), but let’s say that the time for picnics, barbecues &co out in the open is ending…..so sad! Before the “Back to school” trend hits us hard, I’ll tell you about a really … Read more
Let’s take a fashion-break: here’s a drawing for the movie “Papertowns” (out August 12th in France) that I got to see at a premiere in June. If you used up all your tissues on “The fault in our stars” (be it the book or the movie) and/or you’re a fan of John Green’s books, this … Read more
It’s been a while since I last posted about a japanese food address in the capital: you can already find some on my map, but as I’m always up for new japanese experiences in Paris, here’s a new one! Of course, we’ll set aside the “fake” japanese restaurants, but you’ve known me for quite some … Read more
Fruits & Yogurt popsicles You’re not learning anything new if I tell you that the last couple days gave us some almost unbearable temperatures to deal with: we had to use all kinds of trickery and ploys to find a way to stay cool: movies, sprayers, wet tshirts, head in the fridge … On … Read more
Summer is here, and I’m back with the perfect address, discovered by chance, as we were taking pictures in Montmartre. The place caught my eye with its terrace in the shade and its colors. I’ll be staying in Paris this summer (except for a couple weekends), so I might as well be looking out for … Read more
Sakura Ice Tea and its fruit medley This warm weather episode we’re going through lately has me wishing for refreshing recipes (I’m also currently experimenting with various taste associations for home-made iceicles, I’ll be sharing soon). Brita recently offered me their new filtering pitcher “Fill & Serve” (it fits perfectly in my new fridge door … Read more
