Rose Bakery Recipe Book

Mon, 01 Dec 2008 00:32:45 +0000

The Rose Bakery is a small Anglo-French restaurant, shop and bakery, tucked away in a street near the Gare du Nord in Paris. This book introduces this hidden gem and the philosophy and style of its creator Rose Carrarini to a wider audience for the first time.

Beautifully illustrated with more than 100 specially commissioned photographs, and featuring 100 of Rose's most popular recipes, this book is as much a treat for the eye as for the taste buds. The unique style and atmosphere of Rose Bakery, as well as the people who prepare, buy and eat the food that is made here, are captured in Toby Glanville's evocative photographs.

Rose Carrarini became a pastry chef because neither she nor the customers of Villandry, the 'epicerie fine' she set up in London with her husband Jean-Charles in 1988, could find the pastries and desserts they wanted anywhere else. Now based in Paris, Rose has been serving simple, fresh and natural food that blurs the boundaries between home and restaurant cooking at Rose Bakery since 2002. Over 90 per cent of the products sold in the shop and served in the cafe are made on the premises with the best ingredients: Rose uses as much organic and locally sourced produce as possible, and has reduced the sugar content in her cake recipes to make them healthier without sacrificing flavour, texture or pleasure.

Rose Carrarini's approach to food and hospitality has proved to be very popular with the locals, who crowd into the shop on weekdays, choosing from the lunchtime display of salads, vegetable tarts and pastries displayed on the shop's counter, and line up on weekend mornings for a full English breakfast or a plate of pancakes.

This book makes the flavours and style of Rose Bakery accessible for people outside Paris, too.

Miranda Kerr on the cover of PAGE SIX MAGAZINE

Fri, 28 Nov 2008 08:59:08 +0000

In this week’s Page Six Magazine – Victoria’s Secret Angel Miranda Kerr has an income of more than $3 million, a Hollywood boyfriend (Orlando Bloom) and a body that just won’t quit. So what does this Australian beauty have to whine about?

On her jet-setting lifestyle working as a Victoria’s Secret Angel:

“In the last 22 days I’ve been to eight different countries. Honestly, I’m always on an airplane. I spend a lot of time on beautiful little islands, but generally its one day here and then flying, then one day there, then fly. But I feel very grateful to have so much work, especially with the economy how it is.”

On her relationship with Orlando Bloom:

“Everyone asks me to talk about him and they get really annoyed with me when I say no, but if you want to know about him, why don’t you go and ask him? I’m sorry, but that’s just how it is.”

On being approached to model:

“I was so reluctant to do it at first. I was like ‘Eh, models, they’re like this or like that,’ which was totally wrong on my behalf. But I just felt like I wanted to do something with a bit more substance.”

On having a family one day:

“I’ve always wanted kids, so…someday…eventually, yes, it will happen. My ideal situation would be to live on a farm in a solar-powered house with a hammock and a vegetable patch. When this is all over that’s where I’ll be.”

Barack Obama Gets the Boot

Tue, 25 Nov 2008 03:01:12 +0000

A boot named after Barack Obama that is. Sandra Canselier, Coclico designer, is a French expatriate living in the United States. Since she couldn’t vote for Obama herself, she decided to name a boot after the presidential-elect.

Coclico’s Obama boot was designed with high-fashion looks in mind. The shaft sports curved seams up one side and a hidden zipper entry on the other. The rounded, peaked toe works with the thick, tapered heel for a comfortable fit and stylish silhouette. Best of all, the vegetable-tanned leather will patinate over time–making this boot look even better with wear.

Coclico Women’s Obama Boots, available in Serpico Bruciato and Serpio Plombo, are available from Amazon.com, $535.95. Too bad they aren’t included in the economic stimulus package, but, hey you get free shipping.
