With the holidays coming up nothing is better than a festive hot chocolate. Using a chocolate bar to make hot chocolate gives it the ultimate rich taste.

For lunch, we have prepared a chopped salmon and avocado egg sandwich. Sometimes it is maybe difficult what to choose for lunch. We tend to grab the easiest and fastest things we can find. It also has to do with the time I guess, but let’s say we will keep this only for our weekends. It is not only easy to make,  but it is also very healthy and tasty too. Ingredients: 1 slice of whole wheat bread chopped salmon creme fraiche watercress cream cheese 1 avocado 1 egg Start with

B eautiful black tableware pieces here shown in pictures and a mood board. Depending on your style, black can be a great option to use for your home.

Let’s talk about coffee, no facts just fun. I like my coffee in the morning very much, how about you? I call for it to feel awake and have a great start off in the morning. There is, of course, a lot to say about coffee, but I keep it in hand by simply drinking 2 coffee’s a day. I play around a little with the variety of coffees. Mostly it is an espresso, but if I want it a bit more fancy I treat myself to a cappuccino or Latte Macchiato. As an example a mood board and access

We’ve enjoyed a late summer evening at Park Hotel Vitznau W e had a few drinks and a small bite. A wonderful looking tuna and a beautiful tartar, both tasted exquisite.

We could not ask for more. Let the photos speaks for themselves. #designhotel #luxury #style #drinks #travel #Restaurant #

Nothing better than a fresh cup of tea. My favourite flavour is Ginger, like the one from Fortnum & Mason, but I also cannot resist a fresh cup of Jasmine tea.

Shen Nung, a renowned herbalist, decided to try the inf

A variation of the hot chocolate is what I call a Chococcino. It is a hot chocolate with frothed milk instead of whipped cream. What you need for 2 mugs is a 125 gram dark chocolate bar of 60%. If you think it’s not sweet enough you can always add some extra sugar in it. Add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder and mix it in. Simmer the milk and add the chocolate bar in small pieces and stir till it’s all creamy and without lumps. Heat but let not boil the milk. Add a dash of your f
