Recently I took my Mum to have tea/champagne at the Trianon Palace hotel for her birthday. Rob and Mandy's Food for Thoughts meme came to mind! It doesn't look like much but I can assure you it was delicious. Nuts, Japanese crackers and pistachio macarons.------------
Récemment, j'ai emmené ma maman prendre le thé/champagne au Trianon Palace pour son anniversaire. J'ai tout de suite pensé à Food for Thoughts de Rob et Mandy à Barcelone parce que ça n'avait l'air de rien ces noix, ces "trucs japonais" et ces macarons à la pistache mais que c'était bon !
Sounds delicious and looks like a fabulous place to enjoy it! Joyeux anniversaire a ta mere!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to take your mother for tea and champagne! Such a lovely way to celebrate. The pistachio macarons are fascinating.

Well, I would enjoy all of it, especially the nuts and pistachio macarons. I love everything pistachio! I think I'm addicted!
ReplyDeleteWhat an elegant place to bring your Mum to lunch!
Re the Reunion Center at Stone Creek - I have no clue why it is called that, but I shall try to find out!
My problem often is: Je ne comprends rien. (Or did I use that one on you before? Whatever, it's good practice...)
Lucky Mum. Such a beautiful, wise, thoughtful, clever daughter. Hope every little bite pleased you both.
ReplyDeleteI'll have mine with honey please :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fabulous place. I hope you two had wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteIt appears to be an elegant place. Is it the kind of place where you have to whisper? And, by now is your mother used to you taking photos of the food whenever the two of you get together? Nice photos, Ciel. Glad the two of you had a good time. (My birthday is in August . . . )
ReplyDeleteIt looks positively delicious and refined. Your mom must have loved her time with her daughter, sweet thought.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic, and a lovely place to mark the occasion.
ReplyDeleteMy wife loves tea, and we often celebrate people's birthdays at tea at the Phoenician Resort, which is very near our house in Scottsdale. After champagne, we can order from a menu of lots of types of tea, and they bring about 6 types of sandwiches, followed by 4 types of scones, followed by about 6 types of desserts. The server always says "If you cannot decide, you may have one of each" and we always do.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very nice place. Sounds like a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteChampagne and pistachio... an interesting combination of flavors, for sure!

ReplyDeleteAnd Congrats for you mommy, how sweet you are!I bet she loved this surprise!
And I need to try "macarons", in fact it's not easy to find in Luxembourg, maybe next time in Paris?

What opulent suroundings. It looks lovely. xxx
ReplyDeleteUne tasse de champagne ou une coupe de thé ?
ReplyDeleteI'll skip the the tea for all the rest!
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice treat for both of you. I'm guessing that you have champagne that is not available elsewhere and the pistachio macarons sound pretty yummy.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fancy! A perfect idea for a birthday celebration. I'm sure your mum loved it. :)
ReplyDeleteOhhh that looks good! I love macarons ;-D
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a wonderful place for tea with Mum. I am at my Mother's also.
ReplyDeleteMB
tu prends le thé et le champagne en même temps ?
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a must when one is nearby!
ReplyDeleteOr would you recommend Ladurée?
How good it is that we have birthdays.
ReplyDeleteTea and champagne, what a lovely idea!
ReplyDeleteAnd the verification word down there is... liesse!
I can;t believe that I've been to Paris and did not taste the famous Macarons!!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I'm glad you shared this day with us.
