This recipe is for lazy people. I am even surprised myself by the wonderful outcome as I’ve never cooked ” côte de boeuf” before and the final results tasted as good as the ” côte de boeuf” in L’Aterlier du Joel Robuchon. (Except that there was no the mouth-watering Joel…

Like expensive yachts or wild parties, Tarte Tropézienne is inseparable from the image of Saint Tropez. Basically, it is brioche with pastry cream inside. And it is the simplicity that makes the Tarte Tropézienne so wonderful.

Isn’t it beautiful? Reviews of some top Florentine restaurants like Il Cibreo, La Giostra, and Enoteca Pinchiorri coming soon!

I have a new favourite chef in Paris and his name is Frédéric Anton. It’s not that I didn’t know him- he used to be a frequent Joel Robuchon’s guest in Gourmet TV (I was a big fan!), which is unfortunately not airing anymore. Frédéric Anton definitely stood out from…
