Hakkasan London, I haven’t visit Hakkasan for a couple of years and got curious if it still has it. In a dark and dreary alley, you find the entrance of this restaurant. { I allways think it cant be here.} When one has entered, you are in for a surprise .A super chique restaurant with an Asian nightclub-esque atmosphere enfold in front of your eyes. The food is a mix of thai and chinese. The silvercod is the dish to experience. All the food is of excellent quality. Do not go there if you want a romantic night out, it can be noisy. Hakkasan, 8 Hanway Place London, 02079701888.

Cappuccino, we are not only talking about the coffee, but actually about a little chain of breakfast and lunch restaurants. Nice fresh fruit salads, juices and very good cappuccino! The best one to go in Palma is the one on conquistador 13.

Nicolicious on the beach: Being on a short city/ beach holiday break, I discovered this enchanting beach club just of the city centre of Palma de Mallorca. Relaxing and reclining sunbeds with 2 complementary towels, free flow of smoothies and sun cream provided by the ever so friendly staff. The sunset is one of the best features of this beach club { which actually hasn’t got a beach but only a pool}. The wine list is not very extensive but good enough, the food is like you expect on a beach club, the occasional burger and Caesar salad. You will have a Nicolicious day in this club!

Charming location: a few weeks ago I had a tour on the Vinkeveense plassen where we had a drink on this lovely terrace, life music was playing. A very peaceful afternoon. Eiland Een is the name.

Tea: I am lingered on the tea of Laduree or the Marco Polo Mix from Mariage Freres. Recently I discovered the tea of Fleur de Cafe, lots of varieties and presented in sweet little tins. They also have an on-line store!

Nicolicious restaurant tip: l’ Entrecôte et les dames around the corner of the Concert gebouw. A simple and yet very good formula, they only have 2 main corses and the the entrecôte is inevitably the best in Amsterdam. The interior is lovely decorated with black and white pictures of an era gone by.
