REBECCA SOUP






It's official... I've been immortalized into a dessert ! (Well, OK, not immortalized, really just until they change the menu, but you get the idea..) There is now a dessert called Soupe "Rebecca" Chocolat Blanc- Wasabi, Glace Pistache // "Rebecca" White Chocolate & Wasabi Soup, Pistachio Ice Cream on the menu at Ze Kitchen Bis, aka the KGB (see previous blog post for more on that). It's a rich, yet not too heavy white chocolate soup sprinkled with wasabi (it sounds like a strange combination, but I promise it is absolutely delicious) and topped with mini-meringues and served with a pistachio ice cream and cookie crumble. It's a wonderful Franco-Asian mélange of flavors to end what is always a fabulous meal. Rebecca Soup is just like me - white, spicy and delicious. Plus, I only cost 8 euros ! So everyone head down to the KGB and try it !
xoxo Rebecca (of "Rebecca Soup" fame)

The "Pursuit" of Jamie Cullum

Jamie Cullum played a private concert in Paris on Tuesday night for the launch of his new album "The Pursuit". Jamie was adorable and the music was great - a mix of his traditional ballads and some more fun dance music. Here is some footage from the show, live from the stage !!

BREVES ENFANCES




Next Tuesday, be sure to head to famous Parisian bookstore (right next to Café de Flore) L'Ecume de Pages for a book-signing with writer Sylvie Bourgeois. Her new book BREVES ENFANCES brings together 34 stories from children who, through their own words, paint a moving portrait of their families. The stories will make you laugh and cry - sometimes both at the same time. Meet the author - and her husband Philippe Harel for those of you who are fans of the actor-director and his films such as "Les Randonneurs," "French Summer" or "Tu vas Rire, mais je te quitte" which I blogged about when I first arrived in France five years ago, ah la nostalgie ! (http://lafleurdeparis.blogspot.com/2006/02/filmz.html).
See you all on Thursday !!
