When I discussed with Corie next interview to publish on the blog, the one you are about to read today, I was initially perplexed. Corie in fact proposed me to meet Enza Fuzio, the owner of Ottika Enza. I was told that even if she is neither a chef nor a restaurateur, she is still a … Continue reading A coffee with… Enza Fuzio

Jazz Night at Come à la Maison
It has been quite a while since we had a girls' night out and the perfect occasion came last week, when Come à la Maison organized a Jazz Night at dinner. The restaurant Come à la Maison is located just between rue de Hollerich and Merl and have lived over the past years an incredible … Continue reading Jazz Night at Come à la Maison
A coffee with… Remy Manso
Sitting in a quiet restaurant off the station for a dinner-briefing, Corie asked me: - What about Remy Manso for next interview? - Who? -, I replied - clear signal I have moved to Luxembourg only very recently. - He is the owner of numerous and interesting restaurants in Luxembourg. It manages at least a dozen, mostly Latin, including El Barrio. … Continue reading A coffee with… Remy Manso
After-work at El Barrio, Kirchberg, Luxembourg
One of the nicest things about working in Kirchberg is that, during the week, after work, I have often the possibility to visit places that I would normally not, as totally opposite than the area where I live now . Over the week of Holy Mary, in August, I had some friends visiting from Italy … Continue reading After-work at El Barrio, Kirchberg, Luxembourg

Cineast Festival: the 11th edition
Participating in a press conference always allows you to get in the mood that the event intends to transmit. This was the case of the presentation conference of Cineast, the Central and Eastern Europe Film Festival in Luxembourg held last week at the Cinématèque, that this year celebrates its 11th edition. Together with Corie on my side and with a pen and paper … Continue reading Cineast Festival: the 11th edition
Ukelele, Clausen, Luxembourg
If you are following my blog, you have probably already realized my "restaurants to try" approach. I have a "to do" list with new openings and restaurants I have never been, but it often happens that if I don't visit a restaurant immediately after the opening, I loose a bit of interest, as I have … Continue reading Ukelele, Clausen, Luxembourg
Alterego Restaurant, Luxembourg City
Can creative cuisine be as well affordable? I had the truly impression recently that the most sophisticated one restaurant gets, the more expensive the final bill is going to be. Sometimes it is perfectly justifiable as well as appreciated. I tend to save at least couple of dinners per year for outstanding places - mostly … Continue reading Alterego Restaurant, Luxembourg City
TramCrawl: we have been to the 1st Edition!
Pub Crawl Luxembourg started its first event in November little over a year ago with the idea of bringing party people together every month. Due to its great success and the need of constant improvement - indeed, in Luxembourg it gets easily repetitive to browse around same bars -, the concept changed recently and was transformed … Continue reading TramCrawl: we have been to the 1st Edition!
A Drink at Brasserie Philippe, Luxembourg City
Being in Luxembourg for almost 12 years now, I noted that there are restaurants/bars that have been the same for ages - notwithstanding the quality or level of prices - while there are some places that changed management / name / kind of activity very often in a short period of time. I can name … Continue reading A Drink at Brasserie Philippe, Luxembourg City
