Beijing Is Everything That We Dream Of!

China is a fabulous place to visit. With more than 14000 Km of coastline, desert and mountains this gigantic country has a lot to offer. This was our first family trip to China and nothing better than start with the capital city, Beijing.

Siji Minfu Restaurant Peking Roast Duck

Served with heye bing, tian Mian Jiang and green onions, the famous slow roasted and succulent duck is something that everyone should try. We tried it, and we loved it!!

AG Restaurant St Germain

The food is known for being creative and delicious. The location is well known and desired. So what else could I ask for? Nothing! After walking around the Louvre for the whole morning, nothing better that a good restaurant.

Karen Krasne opened Extraordinary desserts in 1998, and since then she has been tempting San Diegan residents with her delectable and amazing desserts! Trained at Cordon Bleu in Paris, her treats are made with the best ingredients and not only look amazing on the shelf, but taste amazing as well.

From the moment I walked in I was mesmerized by the selection of yummy pastries! The confections are inspired by Karen’s travels to exotic parts of the world and change on a daily basis.

Extraordinary Desserts in their second location in “Little Italy”

The 2 gigantic glass displays are filled with treats for any taste… from Bread pudding to Gluten Free choices!

Little shop where you can pick up cooking books, tea and even little stuffed toys!!!

Are you ready for some close ups?!…

And if that didn’t make you hungry here is what Ana and I enjoyed for lunch…

Avocado and Brie and Homemade Brie Torta Bruschettas

Portobello and Brie Panini

Socal Kale Salad

For dessert I had a yummy Passion Fruit Creme Brulee with Coconut

And to end a perfect lunch… A sublime Capuccino!

I’m already thinking what I’m going to order on my next visit!

Last week I had a delightful lunch at Chef Brian Malarkey’s Searsucker Restaurant located in the popular area in downtown San Diego known as The Gaslamp Quarter. I truly enjoyed this restaurant’s atmosphere, with its open layout and kitchen, it is specially lovely during the day time when you can truly admire the beautiful and eclectic decor.

The food is superb and the portions are extremely generous. The service was remarkably prompt and attentive, worthy of this relaxed upscale environment. I certainly will be coming back!

Chef Brian Malarkey

If you want an amazing culinary and fun experience day or night this is the place to go… You will love it!!

A few days ago, after a long morning of shopping, I went to have lunch at this unique and delicious restaurant in the downtown area of San Diego. Cucina Urbana is a California inspired Italian restaurant, the menu is made with locally grown and seasonal ingredients, and it has become a “must” destination for any foodie in San Diego.

The Decor on the restaurant is the perfect background for the delicious eclectic food! A mix of rustic decor and Boho chic, with raw and sustainable materials found in the San Diego area.

Let’s begin with the food!

Stuffed Fried Squash Blossoms – A must have!!! It is addicting!

Short Rib Pappardelle

Vegetarian Panini and Soup of the Day

And for the amazing food I must thank…

Executive Chef Joe Magnanelli and Manager

If you visit Cucina Urbana please let me know what was your favorite dish and don’t forget to share a pic!

After a long day of skiing a hearty meal is just the thing I need! This little restaurant in Mammoth is famous for its “Mammoth burger”, a 1 1/2 pounder that customers love and some of them have more than one!!! I tried their ribs and let me tell you… they were phenomenal!!!

Rack of Ribs with Loaded Baked Potato

Rack of Ribs with French Fries

Mud Pie… Simply delicious!

This was not a fancy restaurant, but the food was unbelievable and if you’re enjoying a few days of skiing at Mammoth I would highly recommend this little place!

While I was in New York City I had the pleasure to attend the ‘Simply stylist’ seminar. This event was founded by PR maven Sarah Pollack Boyd, and it features panel discussions with fashion bloggers, celebrity stylists and fashion designers where they discuss their success stories and discuss trends.

The event started with and introduction from founder Sarah Pollack Boyd, then the fashion panel started, and the speakers included designer and fashion celebrity stylist Joey Tierney, host of E! news Catt Sadler, fashion blogger Lindsey Calla of Saucie Glossie, style expert Lindsay Albanese and Abby Gardner, fashion editor of Marie Claire magazine.

The rest of the event included complimentary hair styling and makeovers, blogger’s fashion reveals and a crash course on how to be a stylist!

I had a great time and it was so much fun to spend time with other fashion lovers!!!
