Never feelin‘ blue – bad weather, get out of the house!

Post only available in German!

Vor ein paar Monaten hätte ich mich noch gefragt, welches Pferd mich geritten hat, an einem schlechten Tag (und dazu noch an einem Sonntag) an den Tegernsee zu fahren. Aber – bei schlechtem Wetter ist die Gefahr sehr viel geringer auf dem Rückweg lange auf der Autobahn zu stehen. Ein weiterer Grund für den Ausflug: Es war der perfekte Wiesn-Detox. Amandine war mit in München und ich zeigte ihr einige meiner Lieblingsecken. Da gehört der Tegernsee nun Mal dazu. Das schlechte Wetter hat uns die Laune nicht verdorben. Das Wetter war perfekt, um meine neuen TEVA Arrowood Mid WP W’s Schuhe auszuführen! Ich suchte schon länger nach bequemen Halbschuhen, die meine harten Wanderstiefel ersetzten.

Never feeling blue…
Raus aus dem Haus – egal bei welchem Wetter!

Am Tegernsee konnte ich meine neuen Teva gleich auf verschiedenen Böden testen – auf rutschigem Asphalt, auf Kies und sogar auf sandigem Boden. Ob sie tatsächlich wasserfest sind, testete ich dann auch gleich noch! Sie sind es… nur blieb meine Hose bei meiner Übermütigkeit nicht verschont! Glücklicherweise war es nicht kalt, aber nur blöd, dass es meine einzige Hose war, die ich dabei hatte.

Nach einem zwei-stündigen Spaziergang waren wir dann doch etwas durchgefroren. Wir fanden ein süßes altes, traditionelles Café und bestellten erstmals leckere Kuchen und eine heiße Schokolade! Yumm…

Vegan restaurant in Berlin | Kopps

If there’s one topic which I regularly write about are my weekly restaurant recommendations! The huge variety of restaurants here in Berlin was definitely a reason to move there. Although I’m here since a short time I’ve already tested a couple of restaurants. Some weeks ago I attended a press dinner with Philips at Kopps Restaurant – a vegan restaurant in Berlin Mitte! To be honest, I realized that it was vegan as soon as I got there but was very curious. At Kopps vegan food is brought to a whole different level and I enjoyed the taste adventure.

The atmosphere at Kopps is modern and relaxed. I especially love the massive tables in the middle of the restaurant. I’d arrived super early but the restaurant was filling quickly. It is definitely a popular stop! Also, when we left new guests were already waiting for their table. Therefore, you should definitely book a table (especially on weekends)!

The creations at Kopps were special and excellent. We had a pre-ordered menu hence I can’t give you feedback or a recommendation for any of the dishes on the menu. Personally, I loved each dish and found them very creative and harmonious. I’ll let the pictures do the talking!

And no, these aren’t maggots – that wouldn’t be vegan, right? In fact, the white little things are Japanese artichokes. Tastes very fresh and crisp. They definitely fit to Halloween this week.

Finally, a delicious creation around the classic Apfelstrudel – very good too!

RÉSUMÉ

I would definitely come back to Kopps for a special occasion of a relaxed dinner with friends.

Côte d’Azur in September #1 | day-trip to Île Saint-Honorat

Back in July, a whatsapp chat with the name “Cannes en Septembrepopped up on my phone. One of my closest friends invited us for a girls getaway to Cannes. France is always a good idea! Moreover, I hadn’t been to the Côte D’Azur since I moved back home from Paris. And that was already three years ago!

Late september is the perfect time for the Southern coastal areas – France, Italy, Slovenia… The weather is still warm enough, all the families have gone and the beaches are quite empty. I was so happy that the water wasn’t too cold and I went for my last summer swim.

Welcome to CANNES

Here are a few shots from Cannes itself. The first day we walked through the city I didn’t bring my camera. Also, the weather was quite bad. Don’t want to spread the bad mood up here. Luckily the rest of the week was super sunny!

Day trip to ÎLE SAINT HONORAT

You won’t get bored in Cannes. The city is the perfect basis to visit surrounding places. One of the famous places to go is for example Île Saint Honorat.

  • it’s the second largest island of the Lérins Islands
  • 1.5km long and 400m wide
  • the island still retains the monastery where 30 monks live nowaway
  • you can visit the monastery and church of Abbey Lérins

The baker hat & No Name Arcade straps

I’m so sorry for the lack of posts these past days. Well, I’d say month! I finally moved into my new apartment this weekend. In a nutshell, I rented a Sprinter and drove all the way down to South Tyrol, Italy to get my stuff back home. The following day I stopped in Munich to get my furniture and bits and bobs in my old apartment. And of course, I had to drive all the way back to Berlin then. 1950km in three days were very sporty! But I’m glad everything went fine. I’m going to write a separate post about the whole moving with lots of tips.

Today I’ve got a new look for you. As you can see I’m already adopting to the laid-back Berlin style! Oh by the way, I can finally show you these cool No Name Arcade straps with animal print. I’d spotted them in Cannes a month ago and fell immediately in love. Luckily, I found them in my size on their website directly. I just love them and they’re so comfi! All in all, a cozy look for the public holiday today in Germany.

Restaurant in Berlin | St. Bart Pub Berlin Sunday Roast at Graefekiez

Relaxed Sunday dinner at St. Bart Pub Berlin

Here comes my Foodfriday with a little delay. Amandine and I had such a lovely dinner at St. Bart Pub Berlin at Graefiez, which I could not share. Since I’ve moved temporarily to Amandine’s place we developed a little Sunday routine – going out for dinner quite early followed by a trashy French comedy. What else do you need on a lazy Sunday? We definitely have to keep up this tradition when we’re both in town.

ST. BART PUB

St. Bart Pub Berlin has just opened in August and has already become a popular spot in the neighborhood. Although we came quite early all of the tables were booked. It seems that the neighborhood loves the easy English pub atmosphere. Luckily, we got a spot at the bar. Sometimes I just love to sit at the bar and have a down-to-earth dinner while chatting with the bartender.

FOOD & DRINKS

As soon as you walk in you’ll find a big chalk board saying ‘Sunday Roast’ and one after the other the remaining birds or beef will be ticked off. This shows that they focus on fresh and high quality food. Therefore, the menu is kept simple, with comfort food dishes. We ordered half bird (16€), nut roast (Vegetarian – 9€), cheesy leeks (5€), sprouts & bacon (4€) and goose fat spuds (4€). We ordered a little bit too much for two people but it was all very good and interesting. I especially love the goose fat spuds as side dish. Amandine loved the cheesy leeks.

Note that the menu changes regularly so just check it out.
