THE MICHELIN STAR

A well known guide to the worlds best restaurants and the michelin star is the creme de la creme of all for a Chef or restaurant to achieve . It is the ultimate for any chef to receive and be awarded a star. I am no expert but it must be almost like setting foot on the moon or winning a the world cup in a sport.

Not an easy achievement but it is also mostly awarded to men , as the industry is dominated by males. Only recently has a WOMAN received this famous star . A Chef from India- Garima Arora has made history being the first woman to receive a Michelin. She studied in Paris at the famous Cordon Bleu culinary school and worked with the famous chef Gordon Ramsay and others. Later opened her own restaurant called Gaa in Bangkok, Thailand.

I do love to try different foods with international background from the chinese din sum to caribbean dishes, mexican, middle eastern and western. It is a way to connect and learn about other peoples culture and lifestyles.

If you like to be entertained there is a movie with a very similar story, about a restaurant and the Michelin star. It is called

tThe hundred foot Journey. A very interesting, funny story

with a Indian family living in France and their small restaurant.

A heart warming story .

SOMETHING DIFFERENT I have to say I love color and prints, and when I saw the work of this Kenyan photographer Thandiwe Murui , I was in AWE. Such vibrant prints that make a statement . The prints or the checkerboard are definitely eye- catching. ( I happen to have a checkerboard top that I wear as a coverup) This might not be for everyones taste, but sometimes it is fun to be a bit wilder! THE SWIRLS love this print and the colour combination . Vibrant and fun! A MOD- FLORAL this print that looks like a Sunflower is perfect for summer.

INSTAGRAM REAL STARS?

WONDER IF SHE IS REAL? How many people follow their favourite instagram and feel perhaps this is what a real person looks like and maybe lives like. I am not talking celebrities like Rihanna or Kardashians or any of the other major celebrities . I am not a big follower of instagram, but for those that are there are a few surprises such as one very popular Instagram Star is actually a virtual reality image, not a REAL person. These computer generated images look so real that people are actually thinking it is a real person. Something strange about that , if someone is able to fool people in such a way Firstly it is not stated this is not a real person This to me is funny. with all the talk about fake news etc. So why is it allowed to have computer generated images allowed to be part of? Okay maybe its like following a cartoon hero, i.e. SUPERMAN or WONDERWOMAN - but this we know are only characters not REAL PEOPLE. These so called stars gorgeous , flawless and h
