recently watched Bourdain’s first
No Reservations episode in France

when it hit me!
i asked my wife:
“does this look familiar?”
“yes, it’s the restaurant
we went to in Paris”

it was Chez Denise, where
Bourdain filmed in 2005.
18 years later, we would sit at
the table to his left

back then, i had no idea who
Bourdain or Chez Denise were
and i was just discovering
food and cooking

we stumbled into Chez Denise
as we were starving and
looking for a quiet place to eat,
away from the main touristy streets

it looked authentic. the menu
written in chalk, on a blackboard
and the waiter, nonchalant
of course :)

i had confit de canard,
tasty, soft, juicy, flavorful,
of course

watching the Chez Denise scenes
with Anthony Bourdain
made me a little emotional
knowing that we got to share
an experience, even if
years apart

câteva highlight-uri de la
Renée, cel din centru

cafeaua pour over Columbia
a fost neașteptat de bună.
uneori vrei să bei o cafea lungă,
dar să nu fie un americano diluat,
și nici acreala de specialty coffee.
asta a fost echilibrată

mi-a plăcut pateul din
ficat de iepure și pui
în mod special
notele date de alune

croissantul cu roast beef, gustos.
mai ales crema de parmezan care
se potrivea extrem de bine cu scrobul.
după asta, cream cheese-ul
pare fad în așa combinație

danish-ul cu caise și fistic are
exact ce nu le ajunge
altor deserturi cu cremă de fistic:
oelacă de acrișor să taie
din grăsminea cremei.
combinație perfectă

mi-au mai făcut din ochi
supa cremă din vinete
și cea din rață,
și cartofii gratin,
dar astea deja data următoare.

wild rose vinegar
from Noma Projects

a flavor of
danish rose petals
and ripe apples

tried it in a recipe
recommended by Noma

recipe:

watermelon cubes
goat cheese pieces
fresh mint leaves
wild rose vinegar
toss everything
cool in the fridge
eat cold
refreshing

was surprised how good
mint and watermelon
fit together
and the vinegar gives
a little sharpness which
complements the cheese

a dessert to
say bye bye
to summer

Glimpses of our visit at Noma Projects. Can we move in here? How much is rent? 🤔

Also, is it always this quiet and peaceful here, or was it just our luck? 🧘‍♂️

PS: There’s a more detailed photo gallery post on my profile (I met René Redzepi; had to brag again, not sorry 🙃).
