The shot of sake, a dinner at Mizuna

One Saturday morning on the way to the market (with my new tote , I was happy), we stopped at Yotsuya, a Japanese shop near the Place du Champ Jacquet. The owner of this store seemed to me there is still some time as a grumpy old Japanese, stingy with smiles and kind words but selling the dishes so pretty that I had resolved to face locked arid and courtesy. But to force him to buy smaller bowls, plates, incense, Maneki Neko and simply drag force in his small shop just for fun he miraculously cheered. In fact, he can smile. And even laugh. All these developments have encouraged me to start the conversation before the last time we went there to buy one of these little cats lucky on the anniversary of my dad (it's a small gift but the a lot of fun, I was happy), I asked him if he knew where I could find matcha in Rennes (yes, you see, I looked around and I'm a little frustrated not to me, also make Madeleines matcha, matcha cheesecake, the pannacotta with matcha, whatever ...) He responded with a cryptic smile and went to slide the door of a small shelf. He took out a kind of grinder who actually proved to be a mill tea he told me with pleasure and no hidden malice that allow small mill, after fifty laps to get a finely powdered green tea from tea leaves and classical instrument it had changed and that life anyway matcha you buy in France is not a good match, at least to put the price (throughout his speech, I took for the first time aware of her facial features and enclosed away from the face of my remembrance, I discovered a pleasant countenance, smiling, malicious). This mill is a bit expensive but it lasts forever and he said he soon pays the price when we know the game. I asked him if he knows where to find the little "badger" bamboo that the Japanese use them to whip matcha what he says he just put the powder and water in a bottle and shake well . Ahem ... I did not buy his small mill (nice in addition to all these qualities) but I have not completely given up ...

But that Saturday, we have not discussed with the owner of Yotsuya, we're just gone like to have an extra step before going to market, but while we are preparing to leave, I notice on the door a postcard announcing a new Japanese restaurant moved to Rennes. So far, we were loyal to Fuji, where the ladies are so nice, so fresh fish and green tea ice cream so soft and voluptuous, but if travel broadens the mind, restaurants are also taste buds and we were delighted 'get a new one to try (in fact, a few months ago another Japanese resataurant Vasselot Street opened and we went full of enthusiasm but we quickly became disillusioned: If the setting is very nice, the location n has taught the Japanese that the cook does obviously do not know sashimi or even buy fresh fish in the light of fluorescent pitiful shreds of salmon surmounting a very poor quality rice). We decided to go to Mizuna the same night and we booked a table for twenty-one thirty, quarter of an hour after the film I remembered there every day to G. As my desire to see him was great. Finally, her reluctance was justified, it was just no, my neighbor snoring and G. was kind enough not to sigh every five minutes (proof of his habitual boredom) until I myself revolt against so many improbabilities and ignorance of erotomania and care we can provide. Between two grotesque scenes, G. whispered: "Fortunately we're going to eat afterwards!". That shows you the enthusiasm that we develop on this meal at Mizuna.
The place is charming. Before, there was a Russian restaurant in this location, we wanted to go there several times but suffered from our inclination. The space is tiny, there is barely ten tables and a terrace. The light is subdued, the tones are soft. The lights are pretty. The menu is written on a slate. The toilets are extremely clean, small Japanese-style curtain and there's photo above the sink. Behind us Teacher evokes the table drifts sarkozystes not know yet how things will materialize unfortunately.
The server is a big boy we suspect he sold jeans and shoes in a previous life (actually, I am sure to have seen him somewhere, but where?) We welcome the launch kindly: "You okay? " which is a bit confusing since we do not know (or he has really sold a pair of jeans or shoes or else we crossed to the hospital but took intelligence, it is not).
For the small opening between the kitchen room, I see the profile concentrated the stove, a young Asian woman whose face does not exactly guess her exact country of origin (provided that the exercise is often difficult, sometimes people think I am Japanese or Vietnamese or Thai you will notice it is not very coherent, but in fact not at all but is it really important?) She's all alone in the kitchen, which explains the short wait between each dish but it is all forgiven, it must be exhausting .
We choose to sample the input of Kolok described as potato croquettes stuffed with meat and vegetables. Thus we see arrive two spherical croquettes, all golden breadcrumbs with a little mayonnaise with chives. They are obviously freshly made, steaming. The server asks innocently if we cutlery instead of chopsticks elegantly arranged on small pebbles and this issue seems somewhat incongruous to me to my face but hey, let's say it was a courtesy. Another oddity of this, however good boy, while G. surprised at the temperature of the sake that we ordered (the drink is cold), the server responds with aplomb as sake is not served hot in China but not Japan, which is not entirely accurate (we suspected but a little way back we checked) but hey, it offers the warm and keep smiling. The golden nuggets
and therefore smoking. We break a wand and we find a filling of chopped vegetables and meat. The texture is nice, it is hot but the taste is not very pronounced, it sounds a little croquettes mince pie but it is not unpleasant, let's say it did not have much interest .
dishes. We choose two that we share. First of No Buta Kaku Ni , second from Kara Agee. Both are served with rice (very good) and a salad of mizuna and eggplant (very refreshing).
The first course, presented as a Japanese stew (which was probably a great success that night since we had the last portion) consists of tender pieces of pork belly accompanied by Caramelized slices of radish equally Caramelized, all surrounded by a mirin broth, this sweet wine sweet and slightly tart. It's very well done, very good (although not very hot, but I confess I am a bit obsessive with the temperature of the dishes at the restaurant. In fact, when they are served in warmed plates, I do not feel pressed to finish them before they cool, it's more enjoyable. I know I'm a bit painful to live ...).
The second dish is classic, but very successful, it's chicken fried surrounded by a very light, with black sesame seeds here and there and topped with a salad of sprouts. The tangy sauce goes well with everything. G. loved much. The teachers were chosen from behind an assortment of sushi and attitude is very appetizing.
For dessert, my jealousy is put to the test (yes, in addition to being obsessive about the hot plates, I am jealous over nothing, but I treat myself. I said that the cook came to a tower room and she is very pretty) since we chose a vanilla cheesecake that I wanted to do. The texture is divinely creamy and caramelized top is like the cream burned, it's delicious. It comes with a very tasty strawberry compote who married very well with the scent of vanilla. Other delights of the menu were all like: mango pudding, ice, matcha / jasmine, red bean cake ...
Time flies at Mizuna. We go out happy, it's very cute, very playful and taste buds are parties even if some dishes lack a bit of character (but they had opened only two days earlier while this may be a break-in period). We certainly continue to go to Fuji for their sushi, their tokoyakis, their thoughtfulness and their smile, but we will certainly also from time to time Mizuna, if only for the cheesecake!

The Boudoir, Rennes, lunch on Wednesday, April 11, 2007 From

After a detour by mail, to send a small attention to a friend Patoumi fan of little shoes and buy some beautiful stamps , we headed to the shoe shops of the Rue de l'Horloge, for me this time. Despairing of ever finding shoes in my foot for the summer ahead, I was not expecting much from this trip, hoping there too I wear my shoes very afraid that they are not replaced before the next leap year. A stopover in Gallery was because of my fears, so I came out with, not one but two pairs of shoes. To celebrate this event as little unexpected, the spirit of friends with Patoumi we were there together at that moment, I do not know-and yet to enjoy the soft sunshine that lit our walk Patoumi suggested that we could enjoy lunch in this pretty spring light.
After a short detour by Nebuchadnezzar (where small glasses of wine accompanied by platters of charcuterie or cheese well know for supporting our winter afternoon, when our hands are charged with pockets full of books) that this proposed only day closed door, we decided to cross the Vilaine to the streets of south, led by a lunch on the terrace. We have a small address over there for lunch on sunny days, The Boudoir . He offered that afternoon just what a beautiful bright terrace.
For my part, I had lunch with a crumble zucchini, goat cheese and mint . The dominant is the goat and zucchini, melted and slightly crumbled deliciously among small cubes of fresh zucchini, mixed with small pieces of golden crumble, mint there is discrete. To accompany a small mixed salad sprouts topped with a sprig of chives and a good green tomato dried. Patoumi, for its part, has entertained a gratin of eggplant, tuna, tomato and mozzarella : what are the flavors of southern prevail, olive oil, tomato confit, melted mozzarella, tuna goes well, mixed with tomato, zucchini balanced and eggplant, even Patoumi not big fan of cooked tuna.
Bellies not excessively heated by the rays of sun tempered by a gentle breeze, we have gone back home, a step as light as the good eating ... and my new shoes.

Perception Kayak Caspia Ebay

touron macaroons, house and home Pariès Adam, Saint Jean de Luz, taste of Thursday, February 22, 2007

When I was little, when my grandmother and I had finished walking and shopping in downtown Bayonne, we passed through the Rue du Port Neuf and the Rue Victor Hugo to lead invariably on the Freedom Square, where, along the Nive, was the bus stop that took us back home. While the sun was sinking, I watched again with a bit of trouble, beyond the confluence of the Nive in the Adour, the stone arches of the Pont Saint Esprit. I did not appreciate this perspective, so majestic it is, because in addition to those for the melancholy of the day, the Pont Saint-Esprit was for me the path that led to the station, the place where I was cursed leave, in a wrenching, this happy time of my vacation.
From the time I only remember a few tearooms Rue du Port Neuf, and this is actually until 2002 that the house Pariès it is installed. However, I already knew the boxes so characteristic of mouchous , designed by Ramiro Arrue , if I look good, I can still see the image of one of these boxes, set on the big red Formica table in the kitchen of my grandmother, as open and available to my greed. I believe that mouchous were a gift rather than classical were overnight guests, but on that, nothing is quite certain.
So it's not quite by accident that we stopped at home Pariès in St. Jean de Luz, on that day, although my memory of the moment, do not back me all these good reasons to stop there. This day of February, the weather was frankly summer, and we did not want to lock ourselves in a restaurant for lunch. Unfortunately, the seafront with its Casino de la Pergola designed by Mallet Stevens in 1927-28 but slightly modified since apparently it does not leave much room for small gargottes where you can enjoy a salad or grilled fish, go on the rear side of the harbor, and we could not forego the temptation to gaze at the clear blue sea.
A little frustrated so we are determined to do without breakfast, and to compensate for this frustration, we bring some sweets to enjoy on the sand.
We must recognize that coming to Saint Jean de Luz, in addition to the pleasure of the walk, we had another idea behind the head. We did not in fact failed to read the file Regal magazine devoted an issue to craft buttons in France, this reading we suggest that the next time we would stay in Biarritz, where we knew our love not would bring us sooner or later, we could make a short stop at home Adam sells buttons in such pretty boxes.
Finally, in the afternoon on the beach of Saint Jean de Luz with Patoumi under a scorching sun, was the occasion, among other pleasures, to compare the talents of these two houses.
To begin, Basque cake. The first one I tasted is the home Pariès. A crust that is both firm and soft, crisp and well sanded without starting to smithereens, contains a creamy, firm without being dry, the smooth almond taste, not too quiet nor too pronounced. The cream is great, all is harmonious between crunchy and creamy, not too sweet. I ask nothing else to a Basque cake.
few minutes later, I tasted one of Adam's house. And then disappointment: I wanted to eat another home Pariès. The crust is good, no complaints. By cons cream is thick, somewhat pasty or gelatinous, and most importantly, there is the scam in the air. The picture speaks for itself, I say no more. Finally, it is perhaps a stroke of bad luck.
This time, the house Pariès so handily won the victory with his basque delicious cake.
second step, the nougat. I bought from Pariès of coconut nougat and nougat in Adam's lemon. From that side, the trend reversed dramatically: the coconut nougat is much, much too sweet, not least, I desperately seek the coconut but I do, on the nose with palate that sugar, and taste marzipan sweet.
However, the home of Adam stands up, the lemon taste is present, rather than hand side peel pulp, but the flavor then agrees fairly well with the almond flavor that is the basis of nougat . To my taste is all a bit too sweet though.
I note that with regard to the format, that of the house Pariès is twice as big, but the price report. However, I regret having to finish a great touron not good ...
Side nougat, so the prize goes without question to Adam's house, although this is not the best I've eaten, but this is perhaps the scent chosen.
Finally the buttons. Here there will be no winner: first the two are delicious, and secondly they are so different that they do not seem really comparable. The
mouchous (kiss in Basque) is a kind of white badge of rather similar to those made today, with two shells with almond, welded by marzipan nature. The biscuit is generally flexible, not crisp, yet not soft at all. It's mellow, it's based, the core of marzipan has this soft side and a little dusty good almond paste, not too sweet. I really like. However, it must be a fan of marzipan, I am, because otherwise I do not see how it would appeal. Small clarification: it's pretty consistent, you eat one, and that's good.
Macaroons Adam did not have much to do with the buttons of contemporary pastry. They consist of a single shell to the kernel, cooked on plate, then cracked and slightly curved top and flat bottom. When one crunches, it is exquisite: the shell is crisp, the heart perfectly soft and melting. The flavor of almond paste is not too present, so Patoumi who does not like marzipan loved it. Not too sweet, not the slightest bitterness, we could eat the box without even without realizing it. And with the coffee ... Yum.
I therefore conclude that the two houses worth a detour, and now I would know what to choose. But I forgot: there are still other specialties to taste ...
