What’s up?
There is no end to Nature’s generosity, when you take care of it.

Ces CEPS (champignons porcini) sont le cadeau de ce matin de notre parc!
BONJOUR!

What’s for dinner at La Croix du Reh?
On the hot summer day there is nothing as good and refreshing as OKROSHKA – type of Russian cold soup: mixture of chopped fresh veggies, eggs and new potatoes, lots of fresh herbs and of course KVAS traditional russian drink. All served with crème fraîche or greek yoghurt . Yummy!

My ultimate comfort food
On a cold rainy day like today my ultimate comfort food will always be Russian Borsch. Full of vitamins from every winter vegetable available, of a great colour and , I cannot describe, of a wonderful flavour, it is absolutely one of Must try!
The greatest thing about Borsch is that it gets better on the next and following day. Served with or without dollop of creme fraiche and good chunk of proper bread, it can be a starter or a light meal on it’s own.
Of course, there are many recipes depending on the region and country ( there is a Ukranian, Polish etc…) , everyone has their own secret. I don’t believe that there is such a thing as a Classic Borscht, it varies so much. But what I do know , that the one we serve here has never fail to surprise and impress our guests.

Delish Delissime
Such a wonderful day was it: brilliant opportunity to visit the Second Delissime food fair in Limoges. Unfortunately, I could not taste the wines being driving afterwards, but what a real delish was the food tasting. The Pavillion, where the faire took place, was not big, nevertheless it took me about 4 hours just to walk around, take a few pictures and of course try one or two things. The artisans-producers , who participated in the fair were specially selected for high quality and originality of their products from all over France. It was great to talk to some of them and to exchange addresses. Delissime is one not to miss the next year!
