I’m so enjoying the normality of restaurants bei I’m so enjoying the normality of restaurants being open again here in France. If you know me, you’ll know this is my thing! I love visiting restaurants everywhere I go, trying local produce from every region I visit in France and seeking out new culinary delights. So… in Annecy is Restaurant Cozna a wonderful restaurant owned and run by Leo and Sandra, who clearly love what they do and my goodness they do it well! Michelin awarded them the Bib Gourmand in 2021, so obviously I’m not the only one who thinks they are running a great restaurant. I’ve written a review of a few visits to Restaurant Cozna on my blog Taste of Savoie. 🍽LINK IN BIO🍽 DO YOU HAVE A FAVOURITE RESTAURANT IN ANNECY? - PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHICH ONE - in the comments below #annecyrestaurant #eatannecy #frenchcuisineannecy #restaurantcozna #Annecy #iLakeAnnecy #tasteofsavoie #foodwinewomen #yesmichelinguide #bloglifestyle #frenchblogger #foodandtravelblogger #makeitdelicious #livewelleatwell
Happy Friday - it’s nearly the weekend. This is Happy Friday - it’s nearly the weekend. This is what I was doing last weekend on my staycation in France. On the beach at Le Barcarès in the Languedoc region of France which is exactly where I wish I was now! Where would you like to be right now? As much as I would like to take a holiday in other places too, I feel so lucky to live in this wonderful diverse country, full of incredible culture, history and amazing food! We must be grateful for what we have around us and enjoy what we can do right now. #lovefrance #travelfrance #francetourisme #languedoc #lebarcares #onthebeach #staycationinfrance #lemoutonbleu #restaurantlebarcares #outtolunch #tasteofsavoie #frenchblogger #bloglifestyle #culinarytravelblogger #explorefrance #jaimelafrance #rosétime
This was one of the stand-out dishes I enjoyed at This was one of the stand-out dishes I enjoyed at Le 1903 Bistrot at the Auberge du Père Bise recently. Believe me they were all delicious though! Sitting on a gorgeous terrace overlooking lake Annecy in Talloires on a sunny Sunday - perfect! This was my entrée: Gratin of crayfish tails ‘new style’ by Jean Sulpice. I’m writing my blog post review of this wonderful lunch - coming soon to Taste of Savoie! What’s your idea of a perfect Sunday? #jeansulpice #aubergeduperebise #le1903bistrot #hautesavoie #annecyrestaurants #lakeannecyrestaurant #michelinstarredchef #frenchchef #frenchcuisine #Talloires
OUT FOR LUNCH! I think I may have mentioned how ex OUT FOR LUNCH! I think I may have mentioned how excited I’ve been that restaurant terraces are open in France - well, my excitement reaches a new level when on Wednesday this week the interiors of restaurants here in France are allowed to open too. AND our curfew changes from 9pm to 11pm - imagine…a whole evening out at a restaurant! This dish was the delicious entrée I really enjoyed at Restaurant Cozna in Annecy last week, sitting on their terrace in the sunshine! So lucky… Never again will I take for granted that I can eat wonderful food at gorgeous restaurants in Annecy whenever I wish...although I hope I can!

I made Kimchi! Using a recipe from Pao Liu from @ I made Kimchi! Using a recipe from Pao Liu from @paopopnpickles after listening to her talk Kimchi on a BBC Good Food, Rookie and Nice Podcast. I made it 5 days ago, left it out for 3 days and then into the fridge and did my first taste test today. It is extremely tasty and very spicy! And I put half the suggested amount of chilli. I’ve made Kimchi before but so far this is my favourite recipe - it’s a vegan version swapping the fish sauce for seaweed - I can see this working well as a condiment to many dishes! Check out my latest Reel for more pics You’ll find the recipe on BBC Good Food website #kimchi #paoliu #makingkimchi #vegankimchi #veganrecipe #bbcgoodfood #rookieandnice #tasteofsavoie #foodculture #frenchblogger #bloglifestyle #makeitdelicious #tasteofsavoiekitchen #livewelleatwell
Oh my goodness! The delicious black pepper burger Oh my goodness! The delicious black pepper burger Au Bureau in Annemasse! Enjoying lunch sitting in the sunshine and really loving the restaurants being open again in France! Only the terraces are open at the moment but from 9th June hopefully the interiors will be open too. The pleasure of lunch out again was huge, something we used to take for granted! It’s the simple things that matter... #aubureau #aubureauannemasse #lunchontheterrace #burgerlover #tasteofsavoie #worththecalories #bloglifestyle #frenchblogger #tasteofsavoieeats #livetoeat #hautesavoierestaurants #restaurantannemasse
It’s a holiday here in France today it’s Asce It’s a holiday here in France today it’s Ascension Day - sadly in the Haute Savoie we’ve so far had rain, sleet and even snow! so it seems like a warming melting cheesy tartiflette kind of day! The traditional tartiflette from the Haute Savoie is made with bacon, potatoes and reblochon cheese - recipe on my blog Taste of Savoie - link in bio. I changed it up a bit and made one with confit de canard and potatoes from a tin using store cupboard staples! (so I didn’t have to go out in the cold and sleet!) Luckily there is always a Reblochon cheese in my fridge! I recently made a Cauliflower and Smoked Diots tartiflette, swapping the potato and bacon! Sometimes I use gnocchi instead of potatoes and I’ve even got a smoked salmon tartiflette recipe on Taste of Savoie! Have you tried a variation on a tartiflette? what would your favourite mix be? Or maybe you’re a purist and only the original tartiflette will do!

Take-away just went up a notch! I found Chef Olivi Take-away just went up a notch! I found Chef Olivier Gérard from L’Ancolie Chalet du Lac in Cruseilles at our local market in Viry, Haute Savoie on Saturday. It’s wonderful to see the initiatives from local chefs during the restaurant closures in France. What a great selection of delicious dishes he is offering. From 4 different types of burgers maison with polenta frites, calamar farci andalou to the amazing dish - a famous recipe of La Fideua - a Valencienne dish similar to a paella with seafood but made with pasta and soupe de poisson, lobster bisque and flambéed with cognac. The desserts looked very tasty as did the Terrine of Salmon, pâte en croute and fresh burata (made by hand in a small village in Puglia by a 76 year old Italian man) served on a bed of a tartare of tomatoes. Chef Olivier Gérard can be found at Viry market every Saturday and at Valleiry market on a Sunday. He also offers an ordering and delivery service with local pick up points on a Friday and Saturday evening in Viry and Valleiry - check their Facebook page for the weekly menu and more details - L'ancolie Chalet Du Lac . #tasteofsavoie #foodculture #bloglifestyle #frenchblogger #makeitdelicious #fideua #valencienne #seafood #takeawayviry #emporterhautesavoie #lancoliecruseilles #gerardolivier
