Villa María

Some time ago we went to the Villa María restaurant to celebrate my aunt's birthday and we had a great meal, I had a delicious fish au gratin and in the end we ordered some desserts for all, they started to eat it so fast that I barely had time to take a pic.

Pescado de la noche del fandango.

Chocolate cake.


On a contrast I had my first go at roasting a chicken, seasoned with fine herbs and it came out awesomely well, the chicken was tender, juicy and flavorful. But the mold was too small and the potatoes that I had to put on the chicken were still raw and hard. XP

Just out of the oven... :3


Finally, the other day I had an AWESOME strudel that my cousin's friend brought, apparently he found out a great german bakery and had to share the discovery with us.

All about stickers.

I don't know why but I really love food related stuff, and when you add the 'kawaii' adjective before it it becomes even more desirable. So I bought some really cute stickers the other day that came all the way directly from Japan and currently am feeling so spaced out for them. Can't stop looking at them. XD
I also bought a small memo pad and a mini note. But right now I fell like just sharing one part with you all.



I don't know what to do with them though... XP

Wagashi wallpaper!

Yay! After three hours of research, selection and edition of images I now have a wallpaper I like a lot in my blog, it's not that I dislike green, it actually is one of my favorite colours but ALL green was also a bit too much.
Now, this one portrays some tasty springy wagashi next to a nice cup of matcha tea, recently done. Thinking that I actually wasn't payed for the work I made quite a lot. But this is my blog and it deserves just the best. =P

First Post

I want to make this an all-food-related blog and so I might just start with a few pics of my memorable encounters with food, I hope That everyone enjoys what they see and experience here.
Also I hope I'll be able to start making some bento for real.


I can't help to eat inbetween meals, sometimes it's a cracker or something like it, sometimes I just have some tea, but this time I wanted so mucho to eat some of those delicious strawberries, I ended up preparing some.


I love sushi, and my daughter loves it too, I just wanted to make something artsy and different for us to enjoy a bit more the experience. Next time I want to make some hanamaki. I bet she'll be truly impressed. X3


The older pic, I remember I went having lunch with my boyfriend this particular time (thought back then we still weren't a couple yet. I miss the daifuku for tea, I gotta go get some soon.
