Taste of Savoie-Caro Blackwell
During our Italian road trip discovering Umbria we During our Italian road trip discovering Umbria we enjoyed a fabulous extra virgin olive oil tutorial and tasting at the wonderful olive farm of Passo della Palomba. Alessandro and Claudia welcomed us onto their beautiful 19th century estate just outside Todi which they have expertly and lovingly restored to understand and appreciate the qualities of the oils. The views from Passo della Palomba were fantastic. They produce some fabulous wines too! The olive tree in the photos is around 600 years old! I am currently writing a blog post about this great experience in the Umbrian countryside - coming soon on Taste of Savoie! #italianoliveoil #oliveoil #visitumbria #visititaly #umbriatourism #italyroadtrip #passodellapalomba #italianwines #Umbria #todi #oliveoiltasting #extravirginoliveoil #olioextraverginedioliva #tasteofsavoie
Visiting Orvieto part 2 - Lunch at Ristorante da G Visiting Orvieto part 2 - Lunch at Ristorante da Gregorio Following my last post I notice that some of the photos of this delicious lunch are not showing - and you need to see them…so here they are the seasonal vegetable baked soufflé/tartlette - using vegetables all from the garden The local pasta Umbriachello made with wine and served in a sauce of wild boar sausage Followed by that wonderful panna cotta - inspired by ingredients from Pantelleria included salt extracted from capers, fresh oregano and a caramel made with the juice of the zibbibo grapes Buon appetito #eatitaly #orvieto #umbriatourism #visititaly #italyroadtrip #italiancuisine #michelinbibgourmand #ristorantedagregorio
Visiting Orvieto This delightful medieval Umbrian Visiting Orvieto This delightful medieval Umbrian city really must go on your list when visiting Italy. Construction began in 1290 on the incredible striped marble Duomo that dominates the landscape. Wander through the old town with narrow streets where you will find cafes, restaurants and artisan shops selling typical regional products. For lunch, just outside Orvieto we discovered a wonderful restaurant a Bib Gourmand as recommended by Michelin and it was so worth the visit. Ristorante da Gregorio is a little out of the city. This family owned and run restaurant is wonderful. The passion of this 2nd generation family run trattoria uses the best local and regional produce including produce from their own gardens. Their dishes were interesting and imaginative - all beautifully plated and described. You really must leave room for the delicious inventive panna cotta dessert inspired by ingredients from Pantelleria included salt extracted from capers, fresh oregano and a caramel made with the juice of the zibbibo grapes some photos didn’t show in this post please check my next post for more yummy lunch photos! It would be hard to say which was my best foodie experience in Umbria but this one was right up there! We tasted local olive oil and drank local wine from Orvieto - a really great Italian foodie experience #eatitaly #orvieto #umbriatourism #visititaly #italyroadtrip
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
