Chocolate, Banana and Chestnuts...


I've made this decadent dessert twice now... Well, it's decadent only if you like bananas and dark chocolate. I found the recipe on a french food blog and stole her picture just to give you an idea. I used chestnut spread instead of hazelnuts. Still works just fine! If you're dying to know the recipe in english, just let me know...

Les Navettes. Marseille



Opened since 1781, the Four des Navettes, is again right next to our appartment. Rue Sainte. It's famous for its speciality biscuits called Navettes They are some kind of cookies flavoured with orange flower and they keep for up to a year. They are really dry and I can only eat them dipped in a cup of tea!

Mum's birthday.




For Mum's birthday, we went to a lovely small restaurant in Pupillin. Jura. I didn't take a lot of pictures but my brother took a couple nice shots from the area. Lots of vineyards here, which means of course, really good wine. 


 

Dessert was amazing. Warm dark chocolate nems to dip in sesame caramelized sauce, with a touch of curry oil. And a litchee sorbet.  Yum! 

In french, Joyeux Anniversaire means Happy Birthday as well as Happy Anniversary. Works for both.


Why is everyone hiding from me?! 


Mum and NoƩ.
