Bistro Guillaume Melbourne – A Beautiful Restaurant That Works on Every Level

I love everything about Bistro Guillaume in Melbourne. I love the outside of the restaurant. I love the lettering of the restaurant name on the outside. It is a fairly small gold sign with the letters of the restaurant written in cursive script cut out. So simple and yet so elegant.

Stepping inside the first thing I notice is how wonderfully warm and whimsical it all is. I love the balloon skirts on the lights made of French silk. It is so original yet fun. Then I notice the chairs with the delightful black and white French print on them. The warm colours of the room all complement each other.

Bistros and Restaurants in Paris France

Gastronomy is taken very seriously in France and with the rich history for fine French cuisine, Paris is a city where you will find some of the Worlds finest chefs serving remarkable cuisine and you will find thousands of cafes and restaurants in Paris alone, ranging from the small bistro such as the Allard Bistro through to exceedingly plush restaurants.

Even at a small traditional restaurant like the Boeuf sur le Toit or at a fancy restaurant setting such as the Train Bleu, the quality of food is of the utmost of importance, but many places have to be booked prior and some require reservations weeks or even months in advance, like the Jules Verne at the Eiffel Tower!

Taste of Thai – San Diego, CA Restaurant Review

Before going to Ray at Night, a gallery walk in North Park, my dear friend CC and I decided to go to Taste of Thai in Hillcrest for an early dinner. Mind you it was the beginning of the dinner rush, so we knew it could be a while before we could find parking and actually sit down to a meal. We had been there before and liked the service, ambiance and food. There are just a few places in town where I’ve found curry that I like. This is one of them. As luck would have it, we found a parking place right in front of the restaurant door (CC has the best parking karma I’ve ever seen.) There also happened to be one last outdoor table available. We both love to dine outside… it feels so European and wonderful. Then we can people watch while we catch up on our families and ourselves. We are both very active and appreciate the life that goes on around us. With CC traveling the world all the time, he has endless adventures. So many times when we talk, we both just embrace how wonderful it is to be in San Diego and living with good health, loving family, and friends nearby. And good food enhances all that life has to offer.

Enough of all that, let’s talk about the food and service at Taste of Thai. About 15 minutes after we arrived, the restaurant filled with people. We were seated in less than 5 minutes. The other diners waiting seemed to be seated in a short period of time, as I don’t recall seeing a standing crowd for very long.
