As result of the 300 brochures sent out to journalists we are getting now weekly 2-3 reviews on blogs and on paper. In some of them my name appears, which makes me very proud, so far the critics about the starters and desserts have always been good, sometimes enthusiastic.
Here is one, where the author (John Talbott, THE reference of anglo phone critics in Paris) confuses however my name with the one of the chef and makes me thereby the chef of the restaurant ;) Which normally I wouldn't mind but it seems he liked my amuse bouche and the starter, but less the main course... He took his photos only after eating half of the starter, so it looks no longer as nice as when it left the kitchen. You can see my name appear on the chalkboard on the first photo. John Talbott's review
I like this one too from Do it in Paris. It is nicely written.
Good pictures and very positive notes on my starters and desserts on the Coup de Fourchette blog.
Here is the whole press brochure to download with lots of pictures of the restaurant, my creations, and even a photo and bio of myself on page 6, in the style "aleady as a child on her first vacation in France she loved creme caramel more than the Eiffeltower".

Looks good what they write about your bistro! Hope to be in paris soon (?).
Will see you soon in MUC

Wow. The brochure looks amazing and what a great picture of you! I am intrigued to know that such a promotional measure is so effective. Clearly it matters that it was 'done right' - bad pictures or words wouldn't serve. But I would not have expected such a result from a brochure. Very cool.
I'm glad you're back to blogging!
