During our beyond fantastic stay at Belavista Hotel & Spa, we enjoyed a lovely dinner at its restaurant Vista, specialised in modern cuisine with traditional regional roots. Let me tell you something: it was fancy!

20 Maymmm… Monday! Croissants
13 May
There’s nothing better than a fresh baked croissant with a nice cup of coffee to start the day. That’s why I’ve always wanted to prepare my own croissants but it seems so difficult… it’s scary! So when I saw this recipe (with gifs!) I thought I could try…

mmm… Monday! Strawberry season
6 May
Strawberry season is here! I’ve started to see boxes full of these little red ladies everywhere and I’m more that happy. Strawberries are one of my favourite fruits! In case you didn’t know, the most delicious strawberries grow in the Noth Sea coast area in Germany, so from now on we will enjoy their sweet smell and delicious flavor!! Yay!! We’ve found a perk of living in the North of Germany!! ;)
We like things simple, so we love eating fresh plain strawberries for breakfast but here you have some other fancier possibilities, if you’d like to see.
mmm… Monday! La Coquería
29 Apr
La Coquería is the new project of Maria Solivellas, the great cook who made the catering for our wedding. Since then not only is she a good friend, but also our favourite chef! Her restaurant, Ca Na Toneta, is simply amazing. In a constant attempt to recover the traditional Majorcan cuisine she has started with Katja Wöhr, her partner in crime, a new adventure in Palma: La Coquería.

mmm… Monday! Picnic season
22 Apr
Picnic season is here! This is one of the nicest things of Spring and something we love: the day that the sun shines (something very rare here in the North of Germany, but still) we grab our books, our SPF, a blanket and we head to the park for a picnic! The weather is not that hot (oh well, in Germany it never really is), there is a warm breeze, the birds are singing, the trees are all green and fragrant… It’s just lovely! Picnics are also the best excuse to eat deli sandwiches and other treats that we don’t usually eat at home. To be honest, maybe that’s the main reason why we love picnics.
Here you have some gourmet picnic ideas if you’d like to see…
mmm… Monday! Walnut cake
15 Apr
This is not a pretty cake. But it tastes sooooo good, so we can say its beauty lies within ;) Paired with a cup of strong coffe it would be perfect for your Monday breakfast. Because of its main ingredients, walnuts and eggs, it’s super nutritious and it will help you to start your week full of energy and joy.
mmm… Monday! Scrambled eggs with smoked salmon
8 Apr
Good morning! This weekend we enjoyed a little bit of sun and blue skies. It seems that Winter is finally leaving for good. We were so happy that we decided to celebrate with a nice brunch. This is by far our favourite recipe to start the weekend with energy!
mmm… Monday! Salted Nutella peanut butter cookies
25 Mar
This weekend I felt like baking and we had some Nutella and peanut butter leftovers so I prepared these wonderful cookies, the perfect mix between sweet and salty! I must admit that I don’t like peanut butter but it really is a great base ingredient for these cookies. It makes them chewy, sticky and adds a great texture. These cookies combine perfectly the crunchy salty peanut butter flavour with the smooth comforting sweetness of the Nutella.
mmm… Monday! Guacamole
18 Mar
Short post to start the week with lots of healthy energy! This weekend we tried to ignore Winter and the fact that on March 17th it was still snowing like crazy, and decided to prepare the most summery dish that we could think of. Guacamole!
It’s super easy: chop three avocados, two peeled tomatoes, half an onion, a small chili pepper, a little bit of chive and a little bit of parsley. Blend everything together and add a pinch of sea salt (preferably Maldon), three table spoons of lemon juice and a splash of olive oil… and enjoy!
mmm… Monday! Paris London
11 Mar
Let’s begin our Paris themed week with one of our favourite things in the world: food! ;) We discovered this place by pure chance. Last week, after having a great time at Le Tuileries (clic) we were starving and freezing. We didn’t know where to eat and it was a little bit late, so we headed to Place de la Madeleine to visit its amazing gourmet shops and buy some nice little treats. But in our way we found this fantastic place. We were mesmerized. We liked it so much that we came back the next day for brunch!
