TinTin and Coco at once
Bread Exchange once again brought me to a new shore. This time in Glade, close to Geneva. Right on the lake Janine took me to her favorite fish restaurant to show me how proper Filet de Perche should taste. And it tasted amazing. The restaurant even offers rooms upstairs and I was lucky to get the last one. Very very … Read More
