Ici Epicerie











Another lunch favorite in Brussels!


As you can see!
Check their menu on the pictures!
But take in mind that it slightly changes everyday according to the seasonal veggies and the fresh of the market produce!
One thing is for sure, you should go there for a weekend brunch, lunch, take away, a detox juice,
basically everything that's good for you!

I loved the Los Angeles version of their store
Through their newsletters I was being updated about their amazing selection of clothes and accessories. 
So when I read that there were opening in New York you can imagine how happy I was!!
Because, lucky meeee, I was just in town at the right time... their opening!

Look at how gorgeous the store turned out!!
I want one of those Confetti System curtains!!

Maison Rika

Whenever we travel to Amsterdam..

 - the call of riding bikes along the water sometimes just gets to big - 

we love to look for cute places to stay and pretend that we own one of those amazing houses along the grachten.

And frankly what better place to ' pretend own' than Maison Rika!

Look how pretty it is!!

Quote of the day


Joan's on Third - Cinnamon Sugar Pita Triangles

Everything looked so delicious at Joan's on Third that forcing me to only pick one item was a tough decision...
- have to apply some kind of discipline otherwise I would have emptied the store - 

And am I a good picker or what!
These cinnamon sugar pita triangles were addictively delicious!!
So I took a picture of the ingredients, figured that I could bake this!
 - cinnamon, chips,... I am in! - 

Turns out
I can!
And its so easy!!





To bake:
What do you need:
1 whole wheat or normal pita
1 tsp sugar ( we used cane sugar)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp neutral-flavoured oil (canola, vegetable)
And then:
Preheat oven to 400°F or 200° C
In a small dish, combine sugar and cinnamon. 
Mix well and set aside.
Slice pita into six wedges. 
Carefully open up each wedge and separate into triangles.



Place a non stick baking sheet on a baking tray.



Arrange triangles flat on the sheet with the inner part of the pita facing up.



Cover pita triangles with the oil using a brush of butter spray.
  Immediately sprinkle with Sugar-Cinnamon mixture. 
Give pita triangles another brush of oil or butter spray.

Bake in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until triangles are crispy.


Be careful cause they burn quickly.

Fish with coconut milk, herbs and lime

Soooo easy and delicious!!
Zero input a maximum of tastes as an output!
Love that kind of cooking!




Get this first
for 4


400 gr of white fish
15 little cherry tomatoes
4 spoons of coconut milk
2 limes
a lot of herbs, I used coriander, flat parsley and dil
1 garlic clove
1 red onion

I have to say that I added a lot more cherry tomatoes, used a lot more coconut milk and used that zucchini that was lying in my fridge... worked perfectly...



Then
Preheat the oven at 180C

Mix the coconut milk with the juice of 1 lime and some olive oil
season to taste with pepper, salt, and garlic
Chop the herbs
Divide the cherry tomatoes in two
Slice the other lime in slices

Take an over tray
Place the white fish, and add some herbs on top, drizzle the coconut sauce, and build from there.
Finish with the sauce and herbs.
Place the cherry tomatoes and the lime slices around all that.

Place it all in the oven at 180C for about 30min

Dig in!!
