The Little Paris Kitchen


My obsession with the Food and Cooking Chanels, finds me sometimes spending way too long sitting on the sofa, in front of the TV.  A favourite of mine recently is ~
'The Little Paris Kitchen'

Have you seen Rachel Khoo, of The Little Paris Kitchen?

 Rachel left the UK and headed to Paris where she trained as a French pastry chef.
Living in her tiny apartment in Paris, she cooks simple, French delicious looking food from her small kitchen. Even turning her front room into a restaurant, seducing Parisian diners.

You can see her running about Paris on shopping trips to the markets, La Bouloungerie and La Patisserie. She can be seen wearing gorgeous vintage style frocks, and her characteristic trait of bright red lipstick.
So if you like Paris, and cooking shows, take a look at the show - she also has a fabulous Cook book out too

Wishing you a happy week
hugs
Carolyn

  3. I wonder if this airs in the US Carolyn. I will have to find out because when you mentioned her vintage frocks and cooking in the same post, my ears perked right up :)
    I think she is so pretty. Love her lipstick and wish I looked good in red.
    I hope you are having a great start to your week my friend.
    hugs...

  9. Carolyn, I just saw last week on Pinteret where my daughter had posted that she wanted this. I think I am going to have to order it for her and surprise her. I think I may want a copy of this book now. :)

    Thanks for the post! I feel enlightened, I had no idea. :)

    Have a most awesome week!

  14. This is the life. As simple as can be, but using the BEST of everything. Even her wearing just the red lipstick is a symbol of taking only the necessary to enhance her beauty and then just being AU NATURAL.....my mum only wore red lipstick and what do I do? THE SAME! And it goes well with my black hair.

    Dearest one, thank you for introducing me to this book. I will enjoy learning more of the French lifestyle that I find wonderful and well, why do you think I went to school to earn my degrees in French!

    Many hugs sweet Carolyn, Anita

  19. We enjoy lots of tv food programmes here, including Rachel Khoo's. I love the concept of eating out in small cafe spaces - cozy and stylish at the same time and wonderful food, of course. Hope your week is going well. x

  21. I haven't heard of her before. I actually haven't had the tv on in weeks. So much nice just to hear the humming of the home rather than a blaring television. The kids don't even watch it anymore because they are doing things on the computers. Wishing you a lovely week. Tammy

  29. Hello Caroly, I have seen this show a few times, and I loved it! The picturesque scenes of Paris, and the pretty little apartment caught my eye more than the food, even though that looked delicious!

    Thanks for your kind comments over at mine, you're always very welcome!

    Love Claire xxx

  32. BLess you Carolyn...thank you for your kind words and many prayers are being lifted up for all the victims. Oh this world is going crazy...isn't it?

    Love, Anita

  33. I haven't seen that show, Carolyn. How adorable the book is. I can certainly attest to how small the kitchens are in Paris, though. My daughter lived there for 7 years and the kitchen was teeny! (So was the bathroom!)
    Have a lovely week!
