At the end of August, four small Dutch family breweries, will present a new beer: the taste of Real 2011 (De Smaak van Echt 2011). The great thing about this beer is, that the best individual ingredients are being used. And what we understood from their tasting notes, they succeeded in making an ambercolored beer fermented with 6% alcohol, not too dry, with a pleasant bitterness.
The ultimate dessert for kids: Camp Fire Smores! Roasted marshmallows with biscuits, hot chocolate and fresh red fruit, it is finger-licking good. This is often served in America, the photos were taken at Harbour Sixty Steakhouse in Toronto. Easy to make and kids do want to come back! So if you ever visit Toronto with kids, go to the Harbour sixty steakhouse for a great steak and delicious dessert!
An effort from coffee brand Maxwell House in Canada, serving free coffee, positive stories and performances by musicians to the people of Toronto at their Optimism Café. Open for the month of July, and part of their “Brew some good”campaign, (with tv adds etc.). With the campaign they are trying to make Canada feel more glass half-full and in the meantime building brand awareness. At the Optimism Café musicians and artist appeared. Take a look at their website with a video explaining set up of the campaign. The add above is the optimistic result of the campaign.
“Tea-time”, designer Pengtao Yu created a simple but yet convinient set combining tea leaves, water and steeping time. You put tea leafs and hot water into the first part of “Tea-time”, twist the timer to set the steeping time and the tea slowly trickles down to the bottom beaker. The timer/filter hold back the leaves and your cup is ready to sip.
At America Eats Tavern, opened July 4th 2011 in Washington, Chef José Andrés applies his innovative style to the American cuisine. America Eats offers a new take on American classics and celebrate native ingredients and some long forgotten dishes, from burgoo to oysters Rockefeller. With recipes and stories collected through extensive research, and with help from the National Archives and a culinary advisory council of chefs, the menu showcases the fascinating history of America one plate at a time. As we read in the New York Times José Andrés is also serving different kinds of ketchups (like blueberry, red currant, yellow tomato and mushroom). Picture of the different kinds of ketchup with the article in the New York Times.
Another interesting hotel will appear in Qatar soon – hotel resort “Amphibious”. the hotel is designed by the Italian company Giancarlo Zema Design Group. The hotel complex will include residential buildings, offices and marina with modern bay. In the central tower will house a restaurant that offers exotic dishes in addition to stunning panoramic views. Guests can stay in the 80 semi-submersible suits, which were called “Jellyfish.” The rooms have wonderful open views to the underwater artificial reefs. On the territory of the hotel complex will be used only electric vehicles and small aluminum boats with hydrogen engines.
Auberge Saint-Gabriel, with Chef Eric Gonzalez, serves his version of lemon pie per inch. The pie is cut at the table, and tastes delicious.
Although an old-fashioned dessert Baked Alaska remains delicious and we don’t understand why it isn’t served more often! Steakhouse Harbour Sixty in Toronto serves it with all the right ingredients and at the table! At all the tables they served it while we were there, it looked like a small party!
We really enjoyed our dinner at Auberge Saint-Gabriel in Montréal, and all the show elements they use were an inspiration for Horecatrends. For example the bread is served, delicious warm, with a bow around it! It’s served on a shelve with knife in it.
Auberge Saint-Gabriel in Montréal, has a lot of space which is designed in an original way by designer Bruno Braën. For example the first thing you see upon entering the restaurant is a huge spine of a whale hanging in the center of the restaurant. They also have a grass-covered expanse that becomes a picnic and play area for the young at heart, and two genuine stuffed moose joined at the neck—the antithesis of a moose trophy on the wall—serve as a lamp. At their website you’ll find more pictures.
