After hearing the buzz around its relocation, I finally had the chance to try @Torino Ristorante & Brasserie — formerly known as Caffè Torino — now settled into its elegant new home inside the Piscine building on Rue des Bains. We booked for Mother’s Day Sunday, which turned out to be the perfect occasion to … Continue reading 📍Torino Ristorante & Brasserie, Luxembourg City — A New Chapter, Same Charm
Yesterday I was invited to the press conference of Cineast, the festival of movie from East and Central Europe that will take place in Luxembourg from 6 to 23 October. This was a really interesting opportunity to learn more about the festival and, above all, about its events! (wow!, more things to do in Luxembourg). … Continue reading CinEast: a preview
I visited Mamacita in Luxembourg city as soon as it opened its doors, some years ago. I clearly remember I was not impressed: cocktails were less than average and pricey and food was nothing special. The service, on my first visit, has been really bad and I left particularly annoyed by the waiters' attitude - … Continue reading Mamacita, Luxembourg city: good Friday night spot
As part of the week-long celebration for hubby's birthday, on Tuesday night we had a tête-à-tête at the new Truffle Bistrot - Relais San Maurizio 1619, that opened at the beginning of December near Hamilius. You might remember from a previous post, I have already tried once to have dinner there. Unfortunately, in that case, … Continue reading Truffle Bistrot: a romantic delight in Luxembourg city centre

One of the problem I have, when I want to dine in town during the week-end, is the need to reserve well in advance - and to spend sometimes a freaking amount of money for plain dinners. Since I discovered WOK Asian Restaurant, I know I can easily have an (almost) inexpensive sushi at last minute. … Continue reading An easy going sushi: WOK Asian Restaurant, Luxembourg city
Finding out a place you passed in front hundreds of time but you never tried is a very cool one is the best feeling ever for me. It is like they open a new trendy restaurant just next door. And this was the feeling I had when I went out from Café des Capucins on Tuesday night. … Continue reading Young and Cool: Café des Capucins
On Sunday, hubby and I decided to treat ourselves with our usual lunch out and we headed to Osteria di Niederanven, in the village of Niederanven, just ten minutes driving from Luxembourg city center. The restaurant was full and we were accommodated to a rustic table in the middle of the main room - a six chairs … Continue reading L’Osteria di Niederanven, Niederanven
On Friday night, I have been invited to the re-opening of La bulle de vin, a very stylish wine bar located in the Old Town, just next door to Companero. The bar and the restaurant were already open to the public but the new management invites friends for a tasting to celebrate the re-launch. The … Continue reading A new cozy wine bar: La bulle de vin, Luxembourg
