The idea was brought to me through a trade in Antwerp. This is my post about the Bread from 2010. Try for yourself, I would have 2 loafs … Read More

I like Poland. And Polish people must like Bread.

The other week there was a story about the Bread Exchange in the weekend issue Wysokie Obcasy (high heels) of the main daily Polish Newspaper . If you can read polish, you will find the article here —> Wysokie Obcasy. It is a second very good Polish publication about the project which surprised me (see SMAK here).

Metohi Kindelis is a almost 400 year old farm which is today turned into 3 very private apartments. Every apartment has its own secret garden with pool and they is absolutely completely private. There are different advantages in every apartment so it all depends on your needs and likings. I choose to stay in the one with the wildest garden since … Read More

In the latest issue of the German Harper’s Bazaar they asked me for my favorite hide away. I answered Metohi Kindelis on Crete. Since the article is not really an article, rather a note, and on top of that it is in German, the upcoming days I thought I give you some pictures from this just stunning place. The House … Read More

You think this soup is pretty? Then wait until you tried it. The taste i sublime. It was served during a hot afternoon after the Wedding ceremony at my friends Marysia and Tymek in Warsaw.

Back in Berlin and hungry for bread

After 4 weeks of chilling in my fridge the sourdough will have to prove itself again. There are alot of strategies around how to treat a sourdough when you go on vacation: Bring it with you (which I normally do)? Dry it and save it somewhere? Freeze it? Or, if you live in Sthlm, let it check in to a … Read More
