Nice Italian Restaurant in Richmond -Al Boccon Di Vino- ♪♪


We went to Al Boccon in Richmond.






Started with spumante!





Today's wine!  ↑↑


I love both Italian food & wine!!! 😍😍😍






















Sorry, as usual, I forgot to take many photos... Also, as you can see, sometimes, I already started eating before taking photos... We had more than 10 dishes!


This restaurant is still my favourite. Feel like visiting our Italian friends. Very friendly atmosphere.


Please note booking essential! Allow 3-4 hours to enjoy all!


Highly recommended!!!

Shopping Alone at Harrods ♪♪


I went to Harrods for shopping.





Is this a Christmas tree??





Today I got chocolates & macaroons at the Pierre Marcolini in Harrods!







My favourite is always 'rose' macaroon. 😍😍😍






I like their truffles. They have 3 different tastes. I asked the lady to mix up all the different truffles in 2 boxes. It is the best way!!!


We will give 1 box to our friend. Hoping he will like it!

Richard Gasquet Out -Paris Bercy Tennis- 😒


Today Richard Gasquet had lost...


The problem was the 1st set. To avoid Sock's fast angled forehand shots, Richard returned all to Sock's backhand side. As a result, it became very passive for Richard. It was not like Richard's tennis. Richard started playing his own tennis from the 2nd set. Actually he was playing well in the 2nd & 3rd sets. But, unfortunately it was too late...


His season in 2016 had finished...


Richard, I will miss you so much for a while... (until you will be on TV during Australian Open...)




I actually saw Richard in July. I cannot believe that it was only 3-4 months ago. Seems like a long time ago! Until next June, July time, it will be a very long wait for me...






Richard, my sunshine, please have a nice holiday & good practice during your off season.


Always supporting you!!!  😘😘😘

Richard Gasquet -Victory in European Open- πŸŽΎπŸŽ‰πŸŽŠπŸ’ͺ


My favourite Richard Gasquet won European Open!!!




This photo is from their official site. Thank you for letting me use it.





His opponent was Diego Schwartzman. Schwartzman is younger than Richard. He was playing in a trendy style with very masculine vitality. He pushed (almost forced) Richard to play very very aggressive!


Nice to see aggressive Richard! As a result, Richard could win with better consistency and experience.  πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ


Congratulations, Richard!!!  ♥♥♥


Love to see your sunshine smile!  😍😍😍

Sunday Lunch at Celeste Lanesborough ♪♪


We went to Celeste for Sunday lunch.





My first course was French onion soup.


It was a surprise dish!!!


This was placed in front of me!!!   ↓↓





The serving staff removed the top first.


Then poured soup into this onion.  ↓↓




At last he removed this onion. Yes, now, looks like onion soup!!!  ↓↓


I had it with cheese crisps instead of crouton.








Desert was another surprise! White sticks were made of meringue!  ↓↓




The third surprise was Petit Four!   ↓↓


One chocolate ball was placed in front of us. Serving staff cracked the top of the chocolate. Our Petit Four came out!




Inside of this chocolate ball, I found a very tiny small chocolate with Lanesborough mark!  ↓↓


Like a small charm in 'galette des rois'!!!




Finished with fresh mint tea!






I really enjoyed my relaxing lazy Sunday!!!

Richard Gasquet in Shenzhen Open Final ♪♪


Today Richard Gasquet played in the final.


Unfortunately he could not win, however, his tennis especially in the 2nd set was in a very good shape.


He showed his 'real' level to us in the 2nd set!!!


Impressed with some beautiful forehand shots! The quick hitting timing at the top was excellent!!! 😍


I do not feel so disappointed this time.


I bet he will show us his good tennis in the coming tournaments.


Richard, I am always supporting you!!! πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰  😍😍😍

Lunch at The Square Restaurant in Mayfair ♪♪


Today we had lunch at The Square Restaurant.























This is Michelin 2 star restaurant.


Overall we enjoyed our lunch.


The service reminded me Chez Nico Restaurant where I visited loooong time ago.


Very professional without friendly atmosphere.


In comparison with the other 2 Michelin star restaurants, I might like The Ledbury in Notting Hill better.


Both nice though.
