Tip of the week: Pandenus Milano

8
Every time we are back from any trip we are left with memories and pictures. Whether that is a good place you visited, something you saw or delicious food. I had a great few days in Milan and I spent lot of time with my friend Monika who lives there. She introduced me to some great places where I definitely return on my next visit. This cute little spot is called Pandenus and there are few of them in the city and I think if you like nice brunch, something sweet or just to chill with a cup of coffee it is a must place to try.

I am an early bird and one morning I swayed Monika to go and have a lovely breakfast together before all my shows and meetings. She took me to this wonderful place with lovely chilled atmosphere and incredibly looking cakes and sandwiches. I was a bit disappointed that typical brunch is served much later (well not everybody is crazy like me and knocking on the door at 9 am) however the sandwich, fresh juice and the cake put me in better mood right away. This is exactly how I like to start my day during fashion month (and I wish I could start like this every day). It puts you in a great mood, you satisfy your taste buds and you treat yourself. And if you start a day positive the whole day will bring you just joy and happiness. Although the weather was terrible … if you have cute places like this nothing matters.

Pokazde kdyz se vratime z cest tak nam zustanou vzpominky a fotografie na pamatku. Je jedno jestli si privezete zajimave zazitky ci vzpominky na dobrou restauraci. Ja jsem se rozhodla sve Milanske dobrodruzstvi z fashion weeku zacit s jidlem. I kdyz jsem byla navstivit mesto za ucelem prehlidek a mody, tak jsem chtela zacit tyden trosku netradicne. A navic jsem dlouho o zadnem miste nepsala. Hodne casu jsem travila s kamaradkou Monikou, ktera v Milane zije a vzala me na nekolik skvelych mist. Jednim z nich je restaurace/kavarna Pandenus. V Milane je jich nekolik a at uz chcete jenom dobrou kavu, brunch ci neco na zub urcite se sem zastavte. 

Ja jsem ranni ptace a rada si davam velkou snidani a tak jsem vytahla brzo rano Moniku ven na snidani. Byla jsem trosku zklamana, ze si nemuzu dat klasicky brunch, ale misto toho jsem si ukojila chute vybornym sandwichem, cerstvym zeleninovym dzusem a timto neskonale dobre vypadajicim zakuskem. A nelitovala jsem. Kavarna takto po rano mela prijemnou a klidnou atmosferu a velky vyber zakusku a sandwichu a take dobrou kavu. Neni nic lepsiho nez zacit den takto prijemne. Jenom skoda toho neustaleho deste. Myslela jsem, ze utecu z Londyna od oskliveho pocasi a bohuzel na me cekalo jeste horsi. Jeste ze existuji utulna mista jako tohle, kam se clovek muze schovat.

L’Oiseau Blanc

3
It would not be a proper girly weekend in Paris without a good dinner, champagne and super chic setting. On Friday we put on our highest heels, curled our locks and headed to an amazing restaurant L’Oiseau Blanc.  

Situated at the rooftop of The Peninsula hotel we knew we were going to get top class views. And a spot like this deserves a good outfit right? I put on my favourite Temperley dress and Christina opted for sparkles and sky high heels. And dressed like this I already had a feeling that we were going to have the best time.

The menu changes all the time so we knew we were going to be surprised with the latest dishes on offer. I went for scallops (the mushroom sauce with it was everything), lamb as a main and same dessert as Christina. And that dessert could not be any “sweeter”. The wings were definitely my favourite part! The chef Sidney Redel deserves lot of praise.

The theme of the restaurant really goes all the way. Whether you are looking at your plate or around and even in the bathroom. This is what I call clever design.

We had a truly great time and the staff was so professional. It was hard to leave when you can sip delicious red wine, chat and look at the Eiffel tower. However, all the things come to an end so we left with satisfied taste buds and still so much to talk about.

And I cannot forget the live proposal we saw in the restaurant. The good news is she said Yes.

Thank you Paris and L’Oiseau Blanc for a fantastic evening. 

To by nebyla ani poradna damska jizda, kdybychom si v Parizi nezasli na dobrou veceri a sampanske a samozrejme s vyhledem na Eifelovku. V patek vecer jsem se vydala s kamaradkou do L’Oiseau Blanc. A takove misto vyzaduje i spravy outfit. Ja jsem si dala starsi, ale velmi oblibene saty Temperley a Christina se rozhodla pro trpytive saty a vysokanske podpatky (nechapu jak to ta holka dela v nich chodit).

Menu jez restaurace nabizi se neustale meni, takze vyber jidla byl do poslednich chvile prekvapeni. Vetsinou se podivam na menu online nez jdu do restaurace, ale tady to zkratka nejde. O to mam ale vetsi zazitek, bavi me sezonni menu a je u nich jistejsi, ze jidla jsou pripraveny s cerstvych potravin. Vybrala jsem si musle jako predkrm a jehneci jako hlavni chod. A desert jsem mela stejny jako Christina. Strasne rada bych vam rekla nazev, ale byl hrozne dlouhy a opravdu si to nepamatuju. Vypada ale vyborne, nemyslite? 

A nelepsi bylo, ze jsem videla zadost o roku v primem prenosu. Myslim, ze mladik si nemohl vybrat lepsi misto a navic rekla Ano. Krasny vecer v Parizi jak ma byt!

Girls night out in Rome

10
Give me an opportunity to dress up and have “few” cocktails and I say yes. As you may know I went on a trip to Rome and together with my mum we wanted to make the most out of it.

I love girls night out and I love good food. I was visiting with my mum and wanted to hav the best time ever. When in Rome you must go and live your dreams in Le Jardin de Russie. I can say that this is so far my favourite spot in this historical gem. You may remember my previous lunch experience there and I am telling you that dinner and cocktails are even better. I could not pick a better spot for our amazing evening.

Kdyz mi da nekdo prilezitost se hezky oblect a dat si par koktejlu tak na odpoved nemusi dlouho cekat. Jak mozna vite, tak jsem byla na prodlouzenem vikendu v Rime a mym spolecnikem byla moje maminka. A jako spravne holky jsme si to chtely uzit.

Pokud se chystate do Rima tak musite navstivit Le Jardin de Russie. Misto, kde je neprekonatelna atmosfera i jidlo. Mozna si pamatujete muj predchozi post, kdyz jsem byla naposledy v Rime. Tentokrat jsem si to ale uzila jeste vice.

Brunch Date at GAIL’s

18 Two Sundays ago I went with my man to one of my favourite spots in Dulwich for brunch. Gail’s bakery is one place where I always love to go back. Sometimes when I go for brunch I dress up but most of the times I keep it easy and comfortable. So I put on some ripped jeans, polo neck, snake skin boots and headed to Dulwich village. I have spent endless Sunday mornings there either with a book on my own or in a good company. Especially now in the autumn this spot has got such a magic surrounded by leaves and as soon as you enter you smell all the fresh pastries and delicious bread.

I love to sit there with my coffee and just watch customers coming in and out…buying bread, croissants and cakes. However you can also sit down and have some healthy food and relax. One of the reasons why this place is so good is thanks to a big selection of healthy fresh juices, organic food, gluten free cakes and pastries and great coffee. When we visited Gail’s last time we went for smoked salmon with eggs, then bacon with eggs and also Shakshuka which is made of baked eggs, feta cheese and roasted pepper stew. It is one of the best brunch dishes I have ever tried.

You do not have to travel all the way to Dulwich as you can find more than 20 bakeries around including Notting Hill, South Kensington and more. If you want to get properly involved you can try to book their baking classes. You can try any of them but imagine how fabulous would be to go and do some festive baking before holidays. It must be such a fun afternoon.

Wherever you live if you pass this place give it a go as you will definitely fall in love.

Miluju chodit na brunche, ale to neni zadna novinka. Je to pro me doba, kdy mohu stravit kvalitni cas se svou druhou polovickou ci kamarady. Obcas se i rada hezky oblecu, ale vetsinou mi postaci dziny, sako a nejaka hezka kabelka. Mam v Londyne nekolik oblibenych mist, ale vetsinu vikendu travim ve svem okoli v jiznim Londyne. Jedna z mych oblibenych pekaren je Gail’s a ta zaroven slouzi jako kavarna.

Moje nejblizsi se nachazi v Dulwich village, kde strasne rada travim volne chvile bud sama s knizkou nebo v dobre spolecnosti. Miluju jenom tak sedet popijet kavu a sledovat zakazniky jak si v nedeli rano chodi koupit cerstvy chleba a pecivo. Jeden z duvodu proc mam tohle misto moc rada je nejen nadherne misto a atmosfera, ale take siroka nabidka bezlepkoveho peciva, dortu a velky vyber zdraveho jidla. Obvzlast ted na podzim je tam tak nadherne. Kolem kavarny je popadane listi a to pusobi opravdu magicky.

Pred dvema tydny jsem si zasla na vynikajici nedelni brunch a vyber byl opravdu veliky. Dala jsem si uzeneho lososa s vajickama a muj muz si dal toast s vajicky, slaninou a taky jsme chteli zkusit zapekany fetta syr s paprikama, vajickem a rajcaty. Dala jsem si take cerstvy zeleny dzus a jejich vybornou kavu. Gail’s take nabizi kurzy peceni. Muzete si zaplatit odpoledni kurz a vyzkouset si nejake jejich recepty na vyborne pecivo a bochniky chleba. Myslim, ze to by bylo krasne stravene odpoledne.

Uz ted se tesim na dalsi navstevu.
