A drink at Le Meurice Hotel, Paris, France


A glass of champagne at the bar. 


A few shots of the lobby area....





...and a glimpse of one of the rather grand dining areas.


Time of visit: Friday night in March 2014. 

Stopping by for tea at Tickton Grange, Yorkshire, UK


Lovely box windows. 

Beautiful views of the grounds. 

Lovely fine bone china. 

Fruit scones with jam and cream. 



Time of visit: Wednesday afternoon in March 2014. 

Pizza at El Cuartito, Recoleta, Buenos Aires, Argentina


We had the most delicious deep filled cheesy pizzas at this Buenos Aires institution. Highly recommended. Crowd: largely locals with a few tourists. 








Time of visit: Saturday lunchtime, April 2014. 

Brunch at Bartola, Palmero, Buenos Aires, Argentina


Taken in by the colourful tables in the sunshine, we stopped by for brunch.

The food was average and ditto for service. I also found the trashy music too loud for the morning (we weren't the only ones to move tables because of it!). However, a nice spot for a drink to watch the world go by. 






Looks nicer than it tasted; some fruit was tinned. I also found the granola too sweet


Quirky colourful interior.





Pretty pastel coloured chairs and tables.





Time of visit: Tuesday late morning/early lunchtime in April 2014 

Brunch at Olsen, Palmero, Buenos Aires, Argentina


We had brunch on Sunday (served all day) at this stunning light and airy restaurant in Palmero. Highly recommend. 






Time of visit: Sunday afternoon, April 2014.
