Hotel Bourg Tibourg | Paris




While in Paris, we stayed at the Hotel Bourg Tibourg.  This hotel was so intimate and charming with only 2 rooms per floor.  And step out the door and you are in the middle of the Marais district with its great restaurants, boutiques, and galleries at your feet.  Love this neighborhood.  You can check their website here.

L'Ami Jean | Paris

I had heard so much about the Paris restaurant L'Ami Jean and oh what a night!  The food was amazing, from the famous Parmesan soup, to the Risotto, and for my main, the grilled Skate. And Stephane himself?  What a great talent.  Thanks for making our night so fun.

Pueblo | Costa Mesa at SOCO


   Last week I shot the Spanish tapas restaurant Pueblo.  And what a little gem of a restaurant this is, located at SOCO, the South Coast Collection of design showrooms and restaurants.  I love the ambiance of this space.  And the food, well, what can I say.  Everything that Chef Michael Campbell prepared was so fresh and tasty.  I felt like I was back in Barcelona.  The dishes in the images above are the Piquillo Relleno, Croquetas de Paella, and the Salmon Ahumado.  I'd suggest a trip over there right away!
