We had some great time this week-end in Strasbourg (wikipedia) with my wife and son. Always a great pleasure to go there, as it is a great city, and also because we have studied there for a while ;-)

We had two great meals:

• a lunch at an Italian restaurant called “La Grappa”, really great. Good atmosphere and service, everything fresh, reasonable price.
• a wonderful dinner at “La cuiller à Pot” (no error ;-), a gastronomic restaurant. Really worth a try!! And not just because we know one of the owner ;-) The Chef was nominated as a “Young Talent 2009” by the Gault & Millau. Have a look:

[…] Numerous gourmet guides have noticed the restaurant, the cuisine being daring, and the mixes being done with “opposites attract” as a motto. A star is born…
Here is Gault Millau Young Talent that really charmed ideal gourmet. Ideally located, decorated with a lot of taste and personality, this gourmet address is on the rise and it will no doubt surprise you thanks to an ideal gourmet menu composed according to the season, with a thousand and one surprises in store for you.

Besides the meals and shopping, I could test a bit more my new Canon EPS 5D MarkII, this time with my “old” wide-angle lens (Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0). I could really feel the advantage of the “full-frame” for the first-time. Great!
