CA: Nepenthe Big Sur








Nepenthe:
A fabulous example of mid-century modern architecture 
in 1949, perched on the cliffs of California's coast.
Rita Hayworth and Orson Wells spent their time there as well as 
Henry Miller, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.
No wonder: with that great view...
And what I can really recommand: 
the good burger ... very delicious!

Cologne: 4711


When I was a child, I loved this scent: 
my grandmother always used to use it...wow!
For now almost 220 years 
'4711 Original Eau de Cologne'
 exists. Still today it is made in the same way like at that time
and still the recipe is kept a secret.
Only best ingredients and real pure essential oils are yet used.
So why not find the way back
to this traditional perfume and maybe back to 
your childhood?

Germany: St. Leonhard



Have you ever tasted 
'pure and clear'?
If not, then maybe you might want to try this
wonderful water. 
Located in the mountains in Bavaria, the region around
this natural fount is known as place with special natural force.
This water is only available in real glass bottles, 
so the taste won't get harmed by plastic.
You can really savor the clarity and softness of the water:
I do really love this water...

Argentina: Dieter Meier wine


Yello: who doesn't remember that great electro-duo with 
frontman Dieter Meier?
Dieter Meier, an artist all in all began making wine 10 years ago in Argentinia.
Why especially Argentina?
His passion is organic-grown wine and to make this, 
Argentina offers very good conditions: 
grapes can grow perfectly without the use of toxins and chemicals.
Meiers output: a very great, tastefull and harmonic wine...
My recommandation: 
PURO Malbec 2010...

Germany: Cast-iron pans




Have you ever thought about the pan you're cooking with?
Since I know these handcrafted cast-iron pans,
I definitely know, what it means to be able to make 
perfect fried potatoes or a real good fried steak...
Since 1857 these handcrafted pans are made in in 
this company in Germany. 
So if you like cooking, this pan shouldn't miss in your kitchen...
