What a weekend

 

 

Gorgeous weather in Dublin this weekend. Bought some beautiful flowers from The Garden flower shop in Powerscourt Townhouse.

Summer Supper

The first, but most definitely not the last, post that will include Fallon & Byrne. My local supermarket...very handy but very dangerous! Great fresh fruit & veg and I love their displays. Brought home the ingredients for a simple salad supper, just right on a warm Thursday evening. Fingers crossed the good weather lasts through the weekend.

Asian Street Food

Good food & atmosphere at Neon. Liked the row of cinema seats to wait in, the paper bags full of prawn crackers, the little trays with illustrated place mats with each dish and the ice cream cone served with every order. Some were more successful than others with the ice cream machine!

Bright blue day

A sunny walk through Dublin after an impromptu 24 hours up North.

Cocoa Atelier

Loved the window display at Cocoa Atelier today...also a beautiful cappuccino & macarons.

The Little Paris Kitchen

Really delighted with my new book 'The Little Paris Kitchen' by Rachel Khoo, a good friend of mine from my Central Saint Martins days. Absolutely love the food styling and typography. Congratulations Rach, proud to be one of your early guinea pigs! Buy Rachel's book from Amazon and check out her recent series on the BBC. Here's a selection of spreads and details from the book...

May Bank Holiday

Great coffee from Attridge & Cole at the park

Essaouira

Recommendations: stay at the Riad Atlantic, eat at Elizir, shop in the Medina, indulge in a massage at Azur Art & Spa, relax by the pool at Hotel Le Medina and sip mojitos on the rooftop terrace at Café Taros.

Thank you to Kara, Mike, Andy, Kate, Adam and Bertie for a great week.
