09/30/2004 Entry: "Pictures from the Trip"

I promised some food pictures from our vacation. Here they are, and then some...
Paris, France:

White Truffle, Choco Yuzu, Green Tea Macha Macarons	Caramelized Apple Fig Tart
Chocolate Yuzu Tart	Pierre Hermé Fall Collection
La Maison Du Chocolat Coffee and Chocolate Eclairs	Berry Compote, Crème brûlée (I think)

In Italy, we cooked a lot since we had a kitchen. Right now, I am in an Italian food phase. I just want to cook pasta everyday! It's so simple, yet so satisfying.

Penne with Porcini Cream Sauce, Mozzarella di Buffala with Tomato and Basil	Penne Al Amatriciana, Prosciutto with Melon, Burata (similar to mozzarella but with cream oozing out of it) with Tomatoes
View in between 2 chestnut trees	Tarte Tatin I made Last Sunday (here in SF)

Hi Karen! You really should update your blog more often, but I understand,time is often a luxury. I've visited his Patisseries in NY and Tokyo and and I'll be in Paris in November, and I can't wait to sample Pierre Herme's creations.
