It was a good year of travel (though I realized that’s exactly what I said in 2014 ^-^)
2015 started at home in Honolulu… Argentina | Snapshots from Mendoza
We flew from Patagonia to Mendoza…
…and then we ate. We ate a lot… A Tea and Dessert Event with MW Restaurant
Aloha from Honolulu ^-^
I still have a bunch of Argentina posts coming…but in the meantime, I wanted to share this tea and dessert collaboration I’m doing with Michelle Karr-Ueoka of MW Restaurant. My first job (over a decade ago!) was working for Michelle at Alan Wong’s. We’ve been friends since, and I am super excited for this event. It’s a three-course tea and dessert pairing. Three of my favorite teas for the season (prepared in both traditional and more unusual ways) and three desserts specifically created by Michelle to pair with each tea. Hope to see you at MW Restaurant on December 27th!
Afternoon Tea | Correntoso Lake & River Hotel | Patagonia, Argentina
It’s not often we get a view of the Andes while having afternoon tea.
Here’s a peek at the Correntoso Lake & River Hotel‘s tea service….
Weekend in Bariloche | Patagonia, Argentina
We flew from NYC to Buenos Aires. Then BA to BRC. And then drove another two hours to Bariloche. Patagonia, at last!
It was a quick weekend visit that involved provoleta at every meal, and reading books while bundled in soft dresses and scarves. Never thought I’d get a chance to visit Patagonia, but very grateful I did.
We stayed at Correntoso Lake & River Hotel…
