Tip of the week…Champagne & Fromage Brixton Village

If you are planning perfect girly afternoon over good food you can stop now as I have the best tip for you. My friend Beccy and I spent the most amazing Sunday afternoon in Brixton village. We are both champagne lovers and cheese lovers as well and we are both those types that when you give us good food we will leave nothing on the plate. LOL.

Champagne and Fromage is a perfect spot and to be honest one of my colleagues has been going on about this place for at least a year. When I saw they opened in Brixton I was very tempted to go. And this was perfect occasion.

It is so cosy and cute inside and I loved everything about it. Even the blankets. Give me a glass of champagne and I am a happy girl and give me some cheese I am even happier. We told the staff what sort of things we like and they put together tasty boards full of goodies. We were drinking Michele Furdyna Rose champagne and it was a perfect choice. And the best cheese? 100 % Reblochon ( I am so coming back for this heaven). We tried also blueberry salami and trust me it was melting in my mouth. However we loved everything and the presentation was top class.

So when can I book my next visit?

V nedeli jsem mela mensi randickou s kamaradkou Beccy, ktera bydli v Brixtone. Nedavno jsem ji rikala, ze bych rada zkusila relativne nove otevrene misto Champagne & Fromage. Muj kolega basnil o tomto miste na Covent Garden uz rok. Ale ted nedavno otevreli Champagne and Fromage v Brixton Village.

Jak vite ja sampanske miluju a taky syr. Nejsem zase az tak na sladke, ale dejte mi dobry syr a bublinky a jsem stastna jako blecha. A Beccy a sampanske…skoro nejlepsi kamaradky. LOL.

Misto je to opravdu utulne a kouzelne a opravdu idealni na odpoledne s kamaradkou. Rekli jsem jake syry mame rady, co nam chutna a nechutna a pekne nam dali dohromady vynikajici typy syru a salamu. Jeden byl dokonce s boruvkama. A ze sampanskych jsme si vybrali Michel Furdyna Rose, ktere se k nasim syrum pry hodi uplne nejvic.

Chutnalo mi uplne vsechno, ale ja i Becca jsem si zamilovala syr Reblochon a urcite si ho dam znovu. Ma uzasnou chut a v kombinaci s hroznovym vinem jeste lepsi.

Ja sem urcite budu chodit casto a pokud mate cestu do Londyna, tak tohle misto kazdopadne doporucuji.

Tip of the Week … Le Jardin De Russie

You know I am a big foodie. And I could not resist when I got a chance to try this phenomenal restaurant in Rome – Le Jardin de Russie. What a place?
I loved every single moment in there and so did my boyfriend and the service was top class. Imagine you sit surrounded by relaxing garden, sipping your delicious wine and eat fantastic food. We both decided to go for their buffet lunch and you can clearly see this is not your usual buffet style. The quality of the food is at another level and the presentation is class as well. I wanted to try everything as they had different type of meat and fish. You can choose from variety of salads. And this is all very affordable.
I could not resist to snap a Picture of the cat that was walking around the gardens and I was told that they have two and one is called Mona and the other Lisa. What a great touch right?
The staff was so caring that when I thought I cannot fit anymore in my belly…bowl of delicious icecream landed on my table. Well, we live only once so I went for it and it was soooo goooooood.

When you are in Rome..you should definitely try this place. You will love it.

Vite, ze mam rada dobře jidlo a ze rada zkousim nova mista a když jsem mela moznost vyzkoušet tuhle skvělou restauraci v Rime, tak jsem neváhala. Opravdu to byl kulinarsky zážitek.
Chutnalo mi uplne všechno a servis byl neskutecny. Byla jsem nadsena stejne jako muj pritel. Místo se nachazi v zahradách hotelu a prijde vam, ze jste v oaze. Vůbec k vam nedolehaji zadne zvuky z ulice a přitom sedite primo na hlavni nakupni tride.
Oba jsme si dali místo ala carte jejich buffet lunch a takovy jsem ještě nemela. Clovek je zvykly na nekvalitni jidla, která jsou předem pripravena a většinou rychle vystydnou. Ja jsem byla v soku z vyberu masa a ryb a urcite podle fotek posoudite, ze jidla jsou presentovana opravdu bravurne.
Dala jsem si několik chodu a uz jsem myslela, ze prasknu, tak mi na stole pristala miska se zmrzlinou. Zamestnanci si tak hledeli a taky mi porad nejakym zazracnym zpusobem pribyvalo ve sklenicce vino.
LOL
A nemohla jsem vam neukázat fotografii kocicky, která se tam porad motala. Pry mají v zahradách hned dve a jedna se jmenuje Mona a druha Lisa. No není to roztomile.

Ja az budu v Rime, tak se sem urcite vratim, protože všechno bylo dokonale a takova mista jsou k nezaplaceni.

New Health and Workout Regime

I got a big wake up call after my holidays. I mean I cannot even publish my pictures in the bikini. And also it made me realize watching people around me on the beach how much we let slip things. In another words there were pretty much no people with toned healthy body. I do not need to be super fit and look like a rock however I want to shed few pounds and look more toned.
As you know I am not a big fan of extremes diets or even exercise. I support balanced diet when you can eat everything but in moderation and regulary moving your body. Whether it is just walking to work or up the stairs.
So what is my plan now:

1. I started that crazy Insanity Workout and I just finished first week. It is hard…I mean very HARD. I think it is the hardest DVD I have ever tried. Sorry Cindy and Jillian!
2. I started to drink tiny team by yourtea to clean my body after holidays. Not sure how much this can help me to lose weight but I feel good since I started to drink it.
3. Less Wine! I am a bit wine and champagne lover. Coming from a family with wineyards and growing up surrounded by good wine it is very hard. However, I am trying to limit this to minimum. Last week I had two glasses of red at the weekend.
4. Less bread. Now this is very hard for me because of my lifestyle. Basically due to full time job and blogging I am a very busy person. So If I have an event in the evening I have to wake up at 5:30 in the morning to do Insanity workout (oh man twice last week but I did it). And then every morning before I leave work I do something regarding blogging – sharing on social media and other things. So I have no time to prepare breakfast and local cafes offer all the time something with bread. I usually end up having something like salmon bagel. Well, I will try to do my best.

So lets try this. 4 Changes that I hope will deliver results. I think I will become Insane. LOL.

Po dovolene jsem mela trosku sok. To co jsem zhubla diky diete 5/2 mi prislo temer vse zpatky (no jo kdyz se clovek na dovolene prejida jako ja…neni se cemu divit). A hlavne jak jsem tak koukala na lidi na plazi, tak jsem si uvedomila, ze tam neni ani desetina lidi, na ktere muzu ukazat prstem, ze pravidelne cvici a staraji se o sebe. Vsude kolem povolene svalstvo a tak jsem si rikala, ze na sobe musim trosku vice maknout. At jsem priste v te jedne desetine.

Jak vite neuznavam nejake drasticke diety, spise je to o vyvazenosti. Jsem zastance, ze lidi maji jist vsechno, ale v mensi mire. Hlavne se o sobe starat a premyslet o tom, co jime a pijeme a taky jak se hybeme. Nekdy staci par delsich prochazek denne a je to. Ale pokud chce clovek trosku zhubnout a pritom vycvicit telo, je asi treba vice.

Takze muj novy plan je tento:

1. Mam za sebou prvni tyden Insanity Workout a je to opravdu silene. Druhy den jsem malem vypustila dusi a priznavam se, ze si delam urcite vice prestavek nez cvicitel radi, ale snad se mi fitness uroven pomalu bude zvysovat.

2. Po dovolene jsem mela pocit, ze potrebuju nejaky caj na procisteni. Vybrala jsem si Tiny Tea Teatox na dva tydny od Your tea. Nevim, zda se po nem hubne, ale kazdopadne se citim po prvni tydnu dobre.

3. Mene Vina. No jako milovnice vina a sampanskeho je tohle tezke. Vzhledem k tomu, ze vam tady na kazde akci spojene s blogovanim podavaji sklenku sampanskeho uz u dveri. Navic pochazim z Moravske vinarske rodiny a to mi taky nepomaha. Ale budu se snazit. Minuly tyden jsem mela o vikendu dve sklenky cerveneho vina. Jak rikam vseho s mirou.

4. Mene Chleba. Tohle mi prijde asi nejtezsi. Musim to trosku vysvetlit. Nemam totiz cas. Kdyz vim, ze vecer mam nejakou modni akci, coz je i nekolikrat tydne, tak musim vstat v 5:30 rano si zacvicit. Pak hned po tom samozrejme sprcha a pak si nechavam tak dvacet minut na blogovani, social media atd a hned odchazim do prace. Takze mi nezbyva nic jineho nez si koupit snidani v nejake kavarne. A to je vetsinou vzdy neco s chlebem. Asi si reknete, proc si nedam ovoce a jogurt. Ale ja proste sladke snidane moc nemusim. 80 % mych snidani je slanych. LOL.

Doufam, ze tyhle zmeny konecne zaberou. Je to neustaly boj co?

Mejte se krasne a dejte vedet vase tipy?

Tip of the week….Jeny Restaurant – Tucepi

Every time I go away I do a proper research when it comes to food and things to do. I have been to Tucepi many times however never visited this place. It is a jewell of the Dalmatian coast and definitely place to try. I booked a table at Jeny Restaurant months ago and after reading some amazing reviews I knew I would not be dissapointed.

Myself and my boyfriend really had a great time and we both loved the setting as well. Jeny is situated 300 meters above sea levels and if you are staying in Tucepi by the sea you have to get a cab to get there. But I mean those views are picturesque no doubt. Although the whole place had a very relaxed atmosphere by the time we were getting a desert it was full of other good food lovers.

I loved the croatian wine served with each course and it was absolutely delicious. The starters were to die for and I definitely want to recommend those deliciously looking scallops. And if you fancy a good steak it is a great option too.

I would definitely go again and not only because of fantastic food but also because of great service and warm welcome.

Vzdycky kdyz jedu na dovolenou nebo prodlouzeny vikend tak udelam pred cestou pruzkum toho kam jit a taky vzdy vyhledavam dobre restaurace. Na dovolene v Chorvatsku a konkretne ve vesnici Tucepi jsem byla mnohokrat, ale tentokrat jsem pri svem patrani poprve objevila tuto restauraci. Restaurace Jeny mela velmi pozitivni recenze, tak jsem zarezervovala stul uz pred par mesici. A opravdu jsem nelitovala. Je to klenot v celem regionu a vsechno bylo dokonale.

Pozice restaurace trosku znevyhodnuje turisty na pobrezi, ale restaurace vam i zajisti taxi, ktere vas dopravi az nahoru. A ten vyhled stoji za to. Zapad slunce, dobre vino a dobre jidlo za tech par minut a par korun stoji.

Jako hlavni chod jsem si ja i pritel dali steak, ale predkrmy jsme se oba rozhodli dat si rozlisne. Na desert jsem uz nemela misto, ale pritel si dal ten krasny ovocny cheescake. Takze treba na tom s tim prejidanim nejsem tak spatne. Lol.

Na tohle misto se urcite vratim znovu a nejen kvuli dobremu jidlu, ale take diky bezchybnemu servisu.
