Aussi chic qu’une robe Chanel – St jacques à la pomme verte et huile de vanille I have been obsessing about this green apple/scallop combination for weeks, and could not come up with something that I would be excited about.

Pas si ordinaires que ca – Crêpes à la ciboulette farcies au saumon mariné aux herbes et sauce blancs de poireaux-moutarde Crêpes are not necessarily boring, ok you’ll tell me they’re just crêpes, and everyone knows how to make them, so what’s the big deal? The bid deal is that the batter is [...]
