Hi, Im currently waiting to see a dermatologist for what my doctor thinks is an allergic reaction. Blood tests have shown my antibodies are high. I have mild Rosacea and at the moment have awful sore spots on my cheeks and jaw. I am using Metrogel for it. I am wondering if my red chest and neck could be Rosacea too?? It comes and goes, can be all red or blotchy but never truely goes and feels like Im burning inside but not all the time. It is sensitive to the sun and first started about 7 weeks ago on my holidays and hasnt gone away, I have not been in the sun since. I did think at first it could be a reaction to Omezaprole or fake tan as it started soon after taking/using them so I stopped taking the tablets and havent fake tanned since. Antihistamines dont work. It is really getting me down as I just want to know what it is. Any advice would be great. Many thanks.
Rosacea?Adults Acne? Chrones Disease? I dont know? Neither do the doctors?? I am 27. In my early twenties 21/22 I started to get really bad and red rashy skin, especially around my mouth, nose and cheeks only and nowhere else on my body I first tried the cosmetic side of things using lazers and creams, which made no improvement. Second, I went to my GP and was referred to a dermatologist who has put me on medications and creams and diagnosed me with Rosacea. The dermatologist also tried putting me on a pill which made no difference. I was refered by my dermatologist to a dentist to remove my fillings as they suspected this could cause my skin condition, they also suspected things like toothpaste etc... however this has made no improvement on my skin. Third, I have since then been diagnosed with Chrones Disease. My Gastroentologist specialist has prescribed me with medication to control this. I have removed dairy and wheat and yeast from my diet as i was told high fibre foods can aggravate my chrones. None of the above seems to have helped or improved my skin condition and i really am at my wits end at this stage and cant see a solution and nobody above seems to know how to help me. Can you help me please????
Hey i am 39 years old and i have been told i suffer from acne rosacea as i have redness on the forehead nose and cheeks and bad spots. I am really embarassed and frustrated with the way i look and dont know what to do to solve the problem what can i do? please help me.
hi,veronica ive had rosacea,for a few years now sadly theres no cure.but some things can help,use amild cleanser,not soap,use high factor sun cream on your face,see your gp for a azelaic cream.the nhs are not very good with this condition.try,dr,newmansclinicco.uk.thats were i go.good luck.
There is no cure, the best thing i have found is taking anti-biotics for an extended amout of time amd have found that stress also strongly affects my rosacea along with sunshine. You need to visit the gp who will try you on anti-biotics most likely, hope this helps
i have rosacea wichh skin product will be suitable for me as i have a very sensitive skin can you please help me
yes the avene range is very good. You have intollerant skin which is worse. Use ultrasun factor 50 everyday, it protects against wind, rain, cold and sun

Hello, I'm 16 and I was born with really bad rosacea on my face and my eyebrows didn't develop properly so basically I don't have any, just a few eyebrow hairs that are too light too see, I'm at the time in my life where I want to look good and constantly being concioius that I don't look anything like anyone else, it puts a constant strain on me and having to always put make up on to hide it it physically and mentally tiring! Is there anything I can do?
I have had a bad flare up of excema on my face due to emotional stress earlier in the year and cant seem to be able to shift it. I use 1% hydrocortisone cream which makes it more red but then eventually goes. Can anyone suggest what else I can use? I have also been suffering with hot flushes and wonder if it has anything to do with my hormones? I am 48... Also as it is on my cheeks, chin, inbetween my mouth and nose, eyes and forehead, I wonder if it may be rosacea and not excema?
I suffered with excema for various years and nothing was working for me to cure it. I decided cream or spray wasn't the thing so every time an itch came up I would slap the area of skin, since then now my excema has completely healed with no creams or spray's just give it a big slap. Also staying out in the sun with the infected area on show does help.
I've had sevier Excema since I was 2 I have grown with it I have tried all Creams including tablets medication and much More I kno sometimes it might sting in sea water Or chemicals but sea water is the best aswell As sun which also helps serisis There is also these bandages rapped in this Kind of paste u can get from pharmasisy
my face mainly my cheeks are always bright red, some days are better than others. i live in Scotland and when it is sunny most Scots are like yaay sun and i'm just like oh god because it makes my face even more red. Also i am normally cold which i don't mind but my face is ALWAYS hot, it's uncomfortable ! do you think i have that condition called rosacea, i am only 15 and it is normally in adults but i think i may have it. i don't have like the spots and things it talks about just the redness but i may just be in the early stages. thanks, natalie x :)
heyy, ive had the same problem as you for like 2 years, since i was about 14 so you're not the only one to get it young. my face is constantly red and it always gets worse when i'm outside in the weather. i recently walked past this skin convention thing in my local shopping centre, and asked for help and they said it was rosacea. All you can really do is use foundation with high coverage and try to accept it.. hopefully we'll both grow out of it! hope this helped a bit :)
Hi, dont worry, ur not alone, I have it too, im 22, and just by chance, i met some fit girl in a club who seemed to have it too, so without talking about it, we both had something in common and turns out we got on really well! if you dont ever get rid of it, (i still havent) im sure u will find ways of dealing with it (like clinique red relief cream) and dont let it get u down too much!
hi i have severe rosacea acne and have used skinerin for the last 2 years and lymacicline for 2 years and i asked to be referred to a dermatologist and was refused by my gp. my acne is terrible and getting worse and getting depressed. i have recently read an article where a lady used ktp laser and pdt laser which helped. please please please help as somedays i call into work sick just to hide away.
If you doctor has refused to refer you I would first ask the reasons for the refusal. If the answer isnt satisfactory you can always ask to see a different doctor. I have had to see a different doctor for various things on many occasions and your regular doctor really shouldnt mind (they are a professional after all!). My acne didnt clear up until I was referred to a dermatologist at the local hospital and prescribed a treatment which used UV light.
Rosacea can be controlled by medication, I am currently taking clonidine which has helped tremendously with my vascular rosacea. There are lots of medications that can be used to treat this condition and get it under control Please Visit this forum www.rosaceagroup.org . Its a place for rosacea sufferesr, and has lots of helpful information.
Its hard to diagnose because it probably not Rosacea, every pharmacie I have been to has said its not Rosacea, Most pharmacies don't actually have a clue what it could be. I actually agree. Its something to do with blood vessels close to skin. Does any one know if you can cauterize blood vessels in that area. I know about Nasal cauterize to prevent noise bleeds. Could possible very dangerous.

I am 15 and have rosacea. I was really sad when my doctor said I had rosacea, because I was a very outgoing guy and loved to be the center of attention, but now I want to hide away from that because of it and I feel that it has changed my life. If anyone has any experience of laser treatment please let me know, becasue I am thinking about it.
I have very bad rosacea and rosacea achne I am now on long term antibiotics which work but what happens when I stop taking them? I cant even wash my face with water as it gets very sore and extra red. I am unable to wear make up as my skin is so dry. I am 35 now and they say it gets worse with age.
Hi, I also suffer from rosacea. What I have found that helps me keep it at bay. Is drinking nettle tea 3-4 times a day, it tastes better with a little honey if you not keen on how it tastes, this helps with our blushing. Also there is a cream called freederm, which helps us clean our face morning and night. Since I have been trying this, I now find I am able to live a happiler life. Hope this helps you
hi im 34 and i have rosacea too its actualy quite flared up at the momment i have had a month supply of the antibiotic tablets and i have tryed the gel vream stuff but since i havent took the tabs its come back but im trying for another baby and with these tablets ur not aloud to get preggnant so there must be another solution surely
hi there i have rosacea and have tried everything and spent thousands....laser traetment is not a successful treatment i have found a treatment that has changed my life and urge people with rosacea not blushing! to try vitamin b5 powdered form i take between 3-5000 mg a day and my face is no longer red!!! £10 a tub and its the best thing i discovered
Try Essential care - on web -all organic creams and soil association approved. def helps.I will try your recommendation though.thanks
I'm 30 yrs old and sspecialisthas told me my dopamime levels are high and i have had a flushed face and neck for 3 months now. Have had scans as he suspects a small tumor but nothing has come up so now i go back in 6 months for more scans. I have asked him if I could have rosacea but he says no. Everything i have read up on points to rosacea.

If your face is constantly red that sounds more like rosacea than typical acne. Of course, I can't see you but your description would correspond with this condition (the red face). Please go to your GP to get some treatment (for either acne or rosacea).
Rosacea signals a problem with digestion believe it or not. There is a bacteria that develops in the stomach/intestines when under long term stress (or with aging) when the stomach is not producing enough stomach acid to properly diest your food. You probably have brittle fingernails and possibly indigestion or gas or bloating as well. Also broken capillaries on your face or the whites of your eyes. I am a Certified Natural Health Practitioner, primarily after what I went through getting to the cause and "cure" of rosacea twenty years ago. You need supplemental HCL with Pepsin, digestive enzymes, and probiotics to aid your digestion and some things to heal your gut. I promise you, you can get dramatically better, and even get rid of the rosacea, as I have by healing your digestive system. I can go into further detail if you contact me. Please know you can do this and you will feel better!

Facial flushing or redness alone is not indicative of rosacea. I don't believe for a second that rosacea is anywhere near as common as they make out. flushing is a very normal mechanism and facial redness can have many causes. One thing I would like to say though is UV damage weakens the skin and breaks blood vessels commonly causing facial redness.
I was diagnosed with Rosacea early this year after years of wondering why I was suffering with painful red cheeks, nose and forehead. Unfortunately I can't take the antibiotics that could work due to an allergy and the gels have not worked. People comment that i look like a clown and wonder why I get upset. I have given up foods, alcohol, chocolate to see if this could help - so far not. I have found that even having a wash in just water increases the redness. My doctor just says unfortunately there is no cure and I will have to put up with it. It is so upsetting and depressing. I have ordered some rosacea creams off a website (trial ones) to see if they work.
Hello Amanda, I may relate to how you feel. I also suffer from rosacea, I always remember a time I had it really bad. I went to go out shopping, only this old lady came upto me, saying ah you poor thing have you been in a car crash!! as my face looked so bad. I just walked away and went home crying, thinking what a mean thing to say! Since then I have been experimenting with many different things in life, changing my diet, no longer drinking alcohol, I not eat tomatoes, beef, citrus friuts of any sort, and I have cut down on eatting dairy products. I also make sure I drink plenty of nettle tea, mixed with a little honey as does not always taste so nice alone. This helps with our blushing butterfly affects. As for washing our faces, I find best cream for me is a cream called freederm. It is a little expensive, though use it regularly enough I find it really helps keep rosacea at bay. Hope this helps you also, as most creams I have personally tried I only got an allergic reaction, though they say they ment for acne!!
i have rosacea also i am 35 years old i cant take the antibiotics either i tried a few creams and microgel but nothing worked i am so very depressed because i also have myotonic dystrophy(a form of muscular dystrophy)i cant drink nettle tea so if anybody could suggest anything i would b very thankful i have found vitamin e cream helps with the soreness and lush soaps seem to help it
Hello, I have rosacea and I have to say I strongly feel that just by adopting new lifestyle changes, rosacea can be kept at bay. For me stress is the biggest trigger for the flushing and burning I experience. Doctors are often of no use for this condition and treatments of antibiotics tend to do more harm than good in the long run. The most helpful way to approach this problem I feel is through traditional chinese approach. And I would love to urge any of you suffering in the same way to reflect on your lifestyle. I personally feel rosacea is exaserbated very strongly by modern day living, our lives are now so fast and furious and stress seems to be a central point of all of our lives even unnessicarily so. and anyone with celtic skin should just stay well out of the sun! sun damage is a certain trigger which cannot be reversed. Good luck to you all. I would love to hear if anyone has any luck in the approach I mentioned.
Hi all, I know how you are all feeling. I have a scar on each cheek which didn't used to be to noticeable. Since I have been diagnosed with rosacea I have noticed them flare up with my cheeks. I find to calm it down for the next day I have to shower at night, using simple moisteriser soap and gel face wash. Once ive had a shower I use Aveeno which is an excellent moisteriser that helps calm it abit. Confidence is a big part of my job as im meeting and greeting people everyday. All I will say is I know how depressing you can all feel as I have been there before. I find that being confident and not stressing over things like work and how I look helps alot. Take each day as it comes and it seems better. Stress is a big contribution to rosacea and thinking about how you look. I have to use makeup to make up my scars because they are red red, not pink but red. I also have a large blood vessel that has appeared to the surface on one cheek and that is noticeable with the rosacea and yes it is upsetting but it cannot stop you living! If anyone does come up with a cure besides laser then please contact us all and share with us, I hope some of this information has helped people out there. Thank you.
Hi there, I suffer from Rosacea. During the summer when it's warm it can be very obvious hot and sore. I also have the pimples which is what makes it sore. I've been to the doctor and the last time he prescribed antibiotics and I had to take these for 3mths. It did calm things down but I really don't want to have to take antiobiotics again for 3mths. The side effects are not nice. I avoid all the foods which trigger the rosacea, i can't avoid exercise and i know this doesn't help but this is a catch 22. I'm very careful of the cosmetics I use. Can you suggest anything else to help calm my poor face down, it's so hot and embarrasing. Many thanks. S
Hi. I too suffer from Rosacea. I am 26, and have been suffering from it for the past 10 years or more. I have been on antibiotics in the past and have used the prescribed creams/gels. I now have a hospital appt to look into laser treatment. My rosacea really affects my life. I wear cover-up make up every day of my life. I won't leave the house, or even answer the door unless I have it on. I can't go swimming, I can't join sports teams, and I often have comments that I wear too much make up and should take it off. It has been a nightmare and my confidence has hit rock bottom...i'm hoping the hospital can help.....
I started to suffer from rosacea following a 2nd attack of SHINGLES. Nasty. That was a year ago, and the rosacea has now spread to my entire face. I'm even getting itching, redness & pustules round my eyes. My dermatologists have prescribed various different antibiotics which don't work & make me vomit plus various lotions, creams etc. that don't seem to make a difference either. I can't go out without makeup & even with it I look terrible. I've changed all my cleansers, moisturisers etc. to Roche-Posay - a soothing French brand. Ask your chemist to stock it for you! Still, my self-confidence has crashed through the floor: I dread getting a boyfriend, can't use the gym etc. etc. I'm just about to have a biopsy which may not tell the dermatologist anything & leave me with a scar. Help!!!! If anyone can tell me about LASER TREATMENT I'd be SOOOO grateful! thanks!
hi , just to let u know i understand how u feel ,,, i have suffered rosacea for 6 years , i recently had treatment called IPL through a private clinic , i needed 5 treatments and it totally cleared , i have to go back once or twice a year for an extra treatment but it is totally worth it , i have now started to get back my confidence and even my 6 year old has commented on how i haven't got a red face any more ,,, it wasn't a quick painless or cheap treatment but totally worth it . hope this info helps
Hi, i am a 17 year old male, i have rosacea and its pretty bad. iv had it for around a year and a half now and its been getting worser ever since. iv been to my gp and all i get given is metro gel and loads of different anti biotics to try over a certain period of time. i only have rosacea on my nose, no were esle the rest of my skin is almost perfect but my nose is horrid, spots, really red, scabby at times. i cant really do anything ever since. i stopped going out as i was too embarrased, i cant have a proper convo with somone face to face as i get nervouse of what they think of my nose. most of the times i just avoid being seen. im on my last week of antibiotics then iv got to go back to my gp, this time we will be discussing if a referral could be made to a dermatologist. anyone know what kinds of treatments you can get of the nhs?
Hi, I am also suffering from Rosacae. I am dutch and in the Netherlands many people with rosacae follow a strict diet that seems to work for most. It is very difficult to keep to the diet though. It includes: taking lysine (1000mg), omega3 and zinc. Then have a lysine high diet (search on the internet). Avoid, alcahol, sugar, including fruits, cow milk products and limit the amount of carbohydrates. If you take carbohydrates, try to take oats, quinoa and wholemeal products. Thus a diet of a lot of fish, vegetabels and chicken. Also try to avoid too much meat (especially from the pig, chicken is ok). After a month you should notice the difference. You can also start trying out whether some of the products do not aggravate your rosacae (for example, not all are sensitive to milk products). I think you cannot keep to this diet without the help of your friends and family. They need to know you problem. Don´t be embarrassed and tell everyone. That helped me. Good luck!
I have had Rosacea for a few years now. I went to see a Doctor and she gave me antibiotics, shampoo etc (which I don't take anymore) and told me to wash with Cidal soap twice a day. My girlfriend first thought it was my blood pressure, but that's under control with Nifedipine and Losartan but still Rosacea is with me for good and I have to pay to use SunSense Ultra 50 sun lotion, Originally I had it free but the Doctor said it was the cuts. I do get depressed about the acne and the scarring, at the moment it's ok but will come back to make my face worse. I shave using foam for sensitive skin, but I don't think this can cause anything. Cidal soap can be good but I have been told different things over the years. I was told to use Aqueous cream for dry skin as this is ok for my face, sometime ago I was told to use it instead of Cidal soap. I went back to see another Doctor and she said NO go back to the soap. I naturally get embarassed and depressed and will be for good. I personally don't think the Doctors have been interested in my condition, as one especially told me not to worry, and I will be ok. This is stupid advice in my opinion. I honestly drink alcohol in moderation and maybe have a takeaway once a week. But I have had many healthy foods but there is till Rosacea.
I'm 34 and have rosacea and dermititas, my rosacea developed around the age of 25 and has steadily got worse. Everything seems to trigger it and at times I am constantly a angry red. It is very depressing. This desease is the perfect desease. Its incurable, its on your face, everything triggers it and it rarely if ever clears up completely. I have tried changing diet, givin up drink, stayin calm, wearing factor 20 and laser treatment and taking Anti biotics. Of them all the laser treatment was the best and the anti biotic (tetracycle) was the best to get rid of the big spots that you can get. I really wouldnt wish it on anyone. Its a shame as I was lookin forward to seeing how I'd age but now I'm too embarrassed half the time to go out. Its a cruel joke.

"Manhattan Vintage Clothing Show" is like no other vintage clothing show I ever experienced before. From the minute I entered the entrance door until 2 hours later walked out the same door; I transformed into another time where the nostalgic of vintage fashion goes way before you were born up until about 1990s is under one roof. The adrenaline is pumping and I did not know even where to start to look. What was in front of me is definitely an ultra exclusive old, used vintage fashion items at it's best !
Every direction I looked; saw vintage dresses, vintage gowns, vintage tops, vintage blouses, vintage sweaters, vintage jackets, vintage skirts, vintage swim suits, vintage hats, vintage blazers, vintage coats, vintage pants suits, vintage jumpsuits, vintage shoes, vintage lingerie, vintage jewelry, vintage handbags/purses and vintage glasses/sunglasses. They are from different eras, different style, from top designers like YSL, Nina Ricci, Gucci, Chanel, to a more affordable Italian designers like Genny (which I spotted and bought; here)
After minutes from entering the door I realized I ended up in a booth where a rack of row of skirts were hanging. A young Asian woman came and handed out a bright lime green skirt to me and said "this color is very much in trend right now!" I smiled and took the skirt from her hand and thought to myself how does she know that is the one I was attracting to ? It was a "Nina Ricci"! I liked it already. Remember, I just walked in 2 minutes ago. The price tag is USD 130.00. Not bad for a Nina Ricci. The next thing I knew she escorted me to the fitting room which was located on the other side of the hallway. It was a perfect fit. Later her boss an older woman said "I can give you for USD 100.00!" I told her politely I just came in and I want to see more what's out there. So I left leaving the Nina Ricci's skirt behind.
I was walking aimlessly and was mesmerized by the beautiful items hung and displayed at every direction my eyes could set upon. Thought I was in a Vintage Clothing heaven. Perhaps I was !
Oh yes, before I forget I must take some pictures since I want to write a full article about this lovely afternoon experienced in my blog.
Isn't she look like a beautiful young princess from a fairytale land ?
Then I saw two young ladies wearing a gorgeous necklace that I never had seen before. So I asked them politely if I could take their picture wearing the lovely necklaces. To my surprised they were very nice and let me take the pictures.
Julie Skinner is wearing a Laurent G. necklace.
A close up shoot
A purse from Julie's boutique.
I could have spent 2 hours there but I decided to go home after scored 2 tops; "here", "a polka dot anorak" (which I am excited to showcase in this blog in the near future) and" a pair of vintage golden Chanel earrings" here before I did some serious damage. Ahhhh.....am so happy with my purchased and said to myself; "definitely must come back to the next show !"
More pictures from the show
The lobby.
I brought home some 'nostalgia' in a shopping bag.
At home I found out from checking out the business card the lovely lady handed out to me, is a high end vintage clothing dealer herself and an ex top model; her name is Julie Skinner. A full article about her, here. I remember how sweet she was when I asked to take picture of one of the purse displayed on the table in her booth. I was in awe realizing that I have met a celebrity that afternoon. Then the idea of sending her two questions about her and the necklace that she was wearing came into my mind. It would be a good article to have in my blog. So I did.
I have not heard from her for about two weeks and a little disappointed that I could not include her answers to my questions in my blog about the necklace. So I was about to write the blog without the answers all together. What a pleasant surprised when I received her email yesterday. I was in such joy that afternoon to finally have her answered my two questions.
So these are the Q & A or a short interview with 'lovely' Julie Skinner. Thank you very much, Julie ?
Q: Tell me about yourself ?
J.S.: Hello Ellya,
I apologize. It has been extremely hectic here, as I am 8 months pregnant and relocating next week to Los Angeles.
I would be delighted to answer any questions you may have.
The website gives a detailed explanation of how I started and where we are now. (yet we are moving to Beverly Hills this month) We work with clients all over the world.
Recently we have been featured in W magazine on Elle and Dakota Fanning, in interview magazine on Katy Perry as well as Spanish Vogue, U.S. Vogue, and Italian Vogue.
Q: Could you please explain about the necklace you are wearing ?
J.S.: The designer is Laurent G. He is a current jewelry designer, working from Paris. He has designed for the likes of Paco Rabanne, Chanel, YSL, Christian Lacroix for the past 30 years. His designs will be showcased on www.postscriptcouture.com within the next week or two.

Isn't she sweet ? I replied her email by wishing her best of luck, success and happiness in her new home in L.A. and a new baby on the way.
I did not hear from the you lady that looked like a young princess from the fairytale land; but I am very happy to have Julie Skinner emailed me personally and explained about the piece she was wearing during the Vintage Clothing Show. This means a lot to me plus it would make a positive impact on my Manhattan Vintage Clothing Show blog post.

you know those people that sell stuff online. i never try it. there are some that tried and they got their items pretty much in a good condition and in a very nice designs and quite affordable including the posting fee and stuff. i tried looking for some of the clothes that i've seen online in boutiques. but i guess i am just lousy at looking for the right boutique with affordable prices. the ones with affordable prices, i will either not satisfied with the materials quality or i am not interested with the designs. if i found one that i like, it will be expensive T-T
but some of the stuff that people sell online, it is quite cheap since it comes straight from the factory. everything is usually below rm100. and lately i found another person selling boots online, and i become very interested with the designs. and it is all under rm100 including delivery. i really want to try...but at the same time i am worry if i will not be satisfied with the quality. this is the problem with online shopping, you can't see the item for yourself unless you buy it. but i am very interested with these three boots. if i see these boots in a boutique store, it will cost like rm80 and above. while the three boots that i post here, all between rm60-rm65 including delivery. now, i am interested in these designs best out of all designs. but if i am to buy one of them (yes, only one), i am not sure if i should proceed or not...what do you think? should i try or should i pass it? is there by any chance that any of you might know a boutique store with similar designs such as this within affordable prices around KL?

PolyPaintPaper and PaintPolyPaper Impact Test
This is the fourth and final test in the series.
I am simulating an impact on the boat samples using a brick dropped at meter height.
This should give a rough indication of how safe this material will be while in the water in the event that it impacts underwater stones, comes aground, or is tossed and thrown into something from the waves/current.
The result was positive: Even with a fairly hard smash upon a brick sized rock at 9.8m/s (22mph since it fell one meter only), the boat will continue to float for at least 30 minutes and most likely more time if bailing is used to keep dumping the water! Since this boat and most smaller paper boats are going to be used on rivers or small lakes near a shoreline this should pose very little risk. More than likely a boat impact will leave the boat strong enough to reach shore with occupants.
Oddly enough I could surmise that a paper mache boat might actually be safer in calm ocean water than in the rivers and lakes because the main risk to paper mache is minimized : sharp objects, river bottoms, rocks, etc. On average you stand less chance at hitting a rock in the open ocean than you do in the Delaware River, which means that if the waters were calm on both the river and ocean, you'd be better off in the ocean!

Quran prints that were written during the lifetime Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) lifetime are now on display at the Berlin State Library.
Quran prints that were written during the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), that have been hidden away in the Berlin State Library for years have been scientifically proven to belong to the era of the Prophet of Islam (Peace be Upon Him). Examined in a laboratory in Zurich, the seven page parchment papers Quran script prints were written between the years 606 and 652, World bulletin reported.
State Library spokesperson Jeanette Lamblia told, the copies were examined as part of a major long term project called the "Corpus Coranicusm" and analyzed in a Zurich laboratory. The project examined all the copies of the Quran across Europe.
This particular print of the Quran was kept in the State Library for over 100 years. The prints were originally as part of an inheritance to an Egyptian scientist were thought to brought to Germany, either at the end of the 19th century or beginning of 20th century.

How Bikes Make Cities Cool - Kona
A Pretty rad video from Kona. The Northwest is pretty well known for having "bike friendly" environments. I've only ridden in Portland once but I was pretty amazed at how well the city flows and how well drivers treat cyclists. On the other hand I was completely surprised by how "un-friendly" Seattle is for cycling upon moving here. Seattle doesn't quite have the infrastructure that allows for easy riding: narrow streets, tons of potholes, and terribly designed bike lanes. So come on Seattle, support your supposed hippy ideals and make this city more accessible by bicycle.

Cute bike!This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.MargieCraig2 years ago
I bought 2 bikes at Academy for 2 little boys who might not have gotten anything for Christmas. One of the bikes was 12" for a 3 year old and the other was 16" for a 6 year old. Both the bikes were easy to assemble (what little assembly there was), very nicely painted and the graphics were nice and bright. The prices were great, too. I was able to buy them both helmets and some other things, as well. I just hope these 2 little boys wake up Christmas morning and love them as much as I loved giving them to them.

Well Built and SmoothThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Nick34281651 year ago
I purchased this bike online and had it assembled by a professional bike shop. I was really impressed by how it turned out. My daughter picked this bike out of a line of them in the store (because of the color). I was worried that it would be a piece of junk but it turned out to be a very decent little bike. The rear ended has no suspension and drops like a rock, but other than that, this is an awesome bike for riding short distances on and off road.
Good bike, but make sure you can stop!This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.LeAnn4172 years ago
I bought this bike about three weeks ago. It's a starter bike for me, so I knew I wasn't getting "high end". I do mostly paved trail riding, with a little off-road. I've ridden about 45 miles on it, and I already need to replace the brakes. Other than that, I'm very happy with my purchase for the price I paid. I would definitely recommend this bike (make sure you grab some extra brakes) to others just getting back into riding. Just know that you get what you pay for.

Perfect for my 4 year oldThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.Mariposa224310 months ago
Got this as a Christmas gift for my 4 year old daughter and she is now obsessed with riding her bike. It didn't take long for my husband to put it together and we had to tweak the training wheels a bit when she was on the bike but she loves it! The streamers on the handles come off pretty easily. But other that it's a great bike and so far performs perfectly.

Disappointed at ChristmasThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.dcjax10 months ago
This bike was purchased online for my son's Christmas present. While assembling it on Christmas Eve, I discovered the forks were bent inward so much that I could not attach the front tire. I returned it to the store a couple of days later and received one already assembled. My son loves the new bike but it was disappointing that he was not able to receive on Christmas morning.

Could not assembleThis reviewer rated product 3 out of 5 stars.LoveMyAcademy2 years ago
This is a nice looking, no frills bicycle that is worth the money. I was unable to assemble the bicycle, because the front fork was poorly manufactured. The width was a quarter inch too narrow and would not fit on the wheel. The local store manager concurred and gave us one that was already assembled. Other than that, our 5y/o is happy with this bicycle.

Got this bike about 3 weeks ago for my 11 year old son He loved it. Rides it regularly and is comfortable for him. Had to put seat all the way down but clamp made it easy to adjust. Seems to be a good product that he will be able to grow into for the next few years. Will probably get the adult versions of this bike for myself and wife.

This is 2016 year model, but I honestly think it is better than the 2017 year model. The 2016 year model comes with kickstand, looks much better than the third party ones. The green color looks beautiful! The only reason I can not give 5 stars is that the box seems opened although the bike appears brand new

The Mobo cruiser is a great workout and fun to ride. It is not made for taking on hills, so you need a flat area to ride it. Nice, relaxing seat that is adjustable. My average speed is about 5.8 mph, so enjoying the ride.

Amazing hybrid bike at an amazing priceThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.AAFESSCHWINN2 months ago
I purchased this bike to jump into the hybrid cycling scene. This beast has not let me down. As it states in the manual, the bike does require initial adjustment for performance and safety. Due to my previous knowledge, rather than taking it to a local shop, I adjusted the bike myself. Any bike from any big box store will have it's issues since they are all assembled by anyone. The front derailleur was perfect, but the rear derailleur was a little ahead of itself. My bike would simply not adjust ... to the lowest gear. With a small adjustment to the barrel adjuster, my bike easily cycled through all the gears quietly and smoothly. The trigger shifters are worlds better than the twist. Once fully adjusted, this bike is the best I have ever owned. Smooth quiet shifting and decent braking performance. I feel safe and in control when hitting corners. I have to admit, it picks up speed quite quickly with the hybrid tires. Overall I am very happy and obsessed with my purchase. The paint job is eye-catching and spots for accessories are limitless. Easy flexibility and top notch equipment at this price range. The only piece of advice is to check the bike thoroughly at the store. Go in with a little knowledge of the important moving parts on a bike. Also check for scratches and dings as the display bikes are not handled too well. Highly recommend!!!
Truly multi-purpose with updated features to boot.This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Tom Lin3 months ago
After looking hundreds of bikes through all the big box stores and a couple of specialty bike stores, this is the only good looking multi-purpose bike that offered the 18 speeds, front & back disk brakes and forked suspension for a reasonable price. At 5' 5", most of my previous bikes were smaller (therefore slower) bikes. For this 700c size bike I adjusted the seat close to the lowest setting for optimum leg extension. The angled middle bar enables me to straddle over a leaning bike while ... waiting for traffic lights. My partner, at 6', also fits the bike well so I went back to the store and bought a second duplicate bike. Since it's still a standard sized men's bike frame, shorter riders, like me, will benefit from a bit more leg power to get it started or you can mount the bike from behind. If you ever bring this bike back for adjustments, make sure the service tag details your all your concerns to the tech including a parking lot test instead of just spinning the wheels on a stand. The price is about half of what it cost in a fancy bike stores so it's not going to come with 5-star service. :)

Although it took 2 weeks to get here and we had to bring to bicycle shop because the front wheel was flat I have to say the bike is really nice. Cost us $15 to fix flat and another $15 to put bike together. Well worth the money as the gears and brakes work perfect. Also, sent 15% coupon code for our next order at academy. Good customer service.

Super fun, perfect for my 7 yr old, good qualityThis reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.NashLove9 months ago
We bought this for our 7 yr old as a gift & he absolutely loves it! It spins and rides close to the ground. It would be ok for a little younger age as well and probably until they are about 8 or so. It has a brake on it and is very easy to spin (fun for littles). It seems to be made of pretty good quality material that will be durable. It has already produced hours of entertainment.

GMC Fat TireThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Bill2547532 years ago
I like the fact that this bike has an aluminum frame to reduce some of the weight. The bike is fun to ride, very smooth, handles the rough terrain extremely well. Only 7 speeds, but for the type of riding you are looking for with a Fat Tire you don't need a lot of gears. Assembly out of the crate was a piece of cake. The price was a good deal, that always helps.

This was purchased as a Christmas gift for our 3 year old granddaughter. Colors, decals, streamers, front basket, seat design were all outstanding. Many "Elsa" choices -this the best. In putting it together we found plastic cover over chain guard was cracked due to bolt error. A phone call from friendly customer service will get it fixed before Christmas! Very satisfied.

Perfect bicycle for my 19 year old college studentThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.andersontc1 month ago
I purchased this bicycle for my daughter to get around a college campus. She loves it. Delivered on time and in good condition. Very easy to put together. Basically you just have to assemble the front tire, handle bars, seat, and pedals. The only issue was the front tire had a bit of a wobble when it rolled which caused it to rub on the front brakes pretty bad. Took the front tire to a bike shop, they adjusted the spokes and it rolls smooth and straight now.

Inexpensive bike for short trips to nearby shopsThis reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Duncan11381 year ago
I am 5'-2" tall and a 24" bike is the best choice for me. I chose this bike as it is seemingly the lightest one among bikes in the same category. I use this bike to get around to nearby shops at 3 to 5 miles from my home. As it runs entirely on paved roads or pedestrian walkway, I do not need a bike with sophisticated shock absorbers. The bike is easy to use and the saddle comfortable. Change of gears is smooth. It is definitely a value for money buy.
Great Value!This reviewer rated product 4 out of 5 stars.BonoMom196610 months ago
We purchased this bike as an Angel Tree gift. It's nearly assembled when you unbox it. We had to add the pedals, tires & seat but otherwise, it was ready to go. The reason for the 4 star rating is simply because we have no knowledge of how it rides or if it'll last.

Poorly Poppy
I never totally trust Turkish vets, but this one is the best I've found. Nevertheless they never quite feel the same way as we do about our precious dogs.
She was with him for 6 hours during which time he performed the op, checked and cleaned her teeth and cut her nails. Also, as instructed by Mr A and not me, he trimmed her hair. Well more to the point he shaved her. It wasn't really necessary but it's tidy and clean, and at least it will be more hygenic not to have her hair caught up in her stitches.
You may remember the vet came out a while ago to the village to look at Beki and Poppy. Beki had mastitis and the medication prescribed cleared it up in a few days. Beki was pronounced too old for the snip, so Poppy had to suffer alone.
I hadn't paid for the vet's previous visit...he told me to wait until after Poppy's visit today. I am totally amazed at the cost for all this treatment, which included two round trips to the village. 190 lira...which is approxımately 69 pounds. I'm sure this will come as a shock to those of you in the UK who make regular visits to the vet with your pets.
Poppy is clearly uncomfortable at the moment, and when I tried to pick her up on her arrival she gave me a nasty nip on my finger. She never bites so clearly she is in pain. Poor little girl. Mr A is on his way home now with pain relief and antibiotics prescribed by the vet. The picture shows her snuggled up on my bed with her favourite cuddly toys. I'm hoping for a speedy recovery for her.
It's been quite a day....I don't know who's more traumatised...Poppy or me!

They do seem to recover quickly don't they Maggie? She is already a lot brighter this evening. Thanks xxReplyDelete
....ahh poor lil' girl, she looks so adorable on your bed.I hate when my pets are not feeling well. My husband says I get sicker then them worrying about them. Glad she's might brighter today.She's probably all happy there with all her favourite toys.ReplyDelete
That sure is cheap for a Vet......here I pay about $350.00 dollars just for a yearly shot and it takes 3 minutes.My neighbour across the street is a Vet and she makes a fortune, you can tell by her cars, house and clothes.
Happy all is getting better. Have a super great weekend. :-)))
Thanks Erica. You never see a poor vet in the UK either. Just as you don't see a rich one hereReplyDelete
WOW! That is dirt cheap! Glad that poppy got the royal treatment and that everthing went well with the operation.ReplyDelete
And she's recovering very well Kelleyn xReplyDelete

"There will certainly be something for everyone with such a great line-up of top performers on the bill and we hope to make it a spectacular night of music to remember forever."
Young Australian soprano Lauren Fagan, a recent graduate of the prestigious Jette Parker Young Artist Programme at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, is a superstar in the making.
Sydney-born Lauren, who graduated with a Bachelor of Business before moving to London, has attracted significant attention over the past two seasons in her main stage performances.
She said: "Being an opera singer is a vocation that influences your whole life and I am very excited at being able to appear at a new venue and perform some wonderful songs. It is also a real privilege to share the stage with the great Bryn Terfel."
Accompanying Bryn will be the BSO Concert Orchestra, the ensemble of fine musicians specially selected for the Upton House Music Festival.
The BSO has been making music of the highest order since 1893 and is a unique organisation in that it is the only UK symphony orchestra not based in a major city - the orchestra serves a whole region whilst maintaining important national and international significance.
The evening's conductor is Gareth Jones who regularly collaborates with Bryn Terfel in opera galas throughout Europe and was the conductor on Bryn's gold disc recording We'll Keep a Welcome.
Gareth, founder, musical director and principal conductor of Sinfonia Cymru and with the Welsh National Opera from 1990 to 2008, conducted the 2015 BBC Proms in the Park with the BBC National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales.
He said: "There will certainly be a Welsh flavour to the evening's extravaganza and I can promise you entertainment of the highest order from this brilliant orchestra and our splendid soloists."
Special guests Escala rose to fame in in 2005 as part of the string section with McFly. They reached the final of Britain's Got Talent in 2008 and signed a major contract with Simon Cowell for their first album.
The all-girl foursome of Victoria Lyon and Honor Watson on the violin, Stephanie Benedetti on the viola and Helen Nash on the cello, appeal to a wide ranging audience with their mix of classical and popular music.
They have played all over the world and performed with many artistes, including Katherine Jenkins, Brian May, Richard Ashcroft and Pink Floyd, and appeared at 2016's Royal Variety Performance with Diversity.
Victoria said: "We're really looking forward to playing the festival and showcasing tracks our latest classical crossover album Quadrasonic, such as Tainted Love, Roxanne and Bittersweet Symphony, as well as old favourites."
The three-night festival held at the idyllic country park also includes an 80s Extravaganza on Friday, 9 June featuring R&B superstar Billy Ocean, singing sensation Kim Wilde and punk princess Toyah.
Saturday, 10 June will feature a major international star whose name is being kept strictly under wraps until a big announcement takes place in January.
Tickets for the event are available now, with various hospitality packages available. See the website www.uptonhousemusicfestival.co.uk for details or call 01202 255161.
Early bird tickets available until December 31 are: Adults £35, Children (5-14) £27.50; Family (2 adults + 2 children) £120; Gold Circle £43.
Pre-Concert Dining tickets, including a three-course meal and a Gold Circle Seat, are £95 including VAT while VIP Hospitality tickets at £165 plus VAT, include a gourmet served dinner, champagne, a private lawn in the arena, complimentary programmes, VIP parking and VIP Gold Circle Seating.
Saturday tickets will go on sale when the headliner is announced in January.

Chowan University advanced placement credit

Think about what career is best suited for you, and where you want to study. Request more information now.
Find information about Chowan University advanced placement credit, and registering for elective discussion sections and seminars. As a student, your first stop should be the registrar's office, where you can pick up a free copy of both the academic calendar and course catalog, in order to find available credit classes that you may be interested in taking. You may be surprised that you can enroll for a full-time course load, without having to attend any 8am classes at all. Finally, check with the admissions office for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Chowan University advanced placement exam information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Chowan University.
As the admission's office must sift through many applications, your goal is to stand out in a good way. If you already have top grades and high SAT or ACT scores, you can still improve your application, given other factors such as talent in sports, the quality of your essay, and extracurricular activities. The admissions essay is gaining weight at selective colleges, but please be aware that on average, a typical college application only receives 25 minutes of reading time. Therefore, keep your application brief, and stick to the point when answering questions.
Admissions officers seek to learn how a given applicant thinks, what kind of person they are, and their level of intellectual promise. Many colleges are paying greater attention to a student's grades not only in core courses, but in AP classes and in honors courses as well. In fact, an ideal academic record is one of progressively better grades, in classes of increasing difficulty. It is optimal to try taking advanced placement (AP) courses if they are offered, and the worst thing you can do in terms of getting into college is to drop a hard course just because you fear getting a low grade. Beyond degree requirements such as Chowan University test preparation, you may consider Fort Scott Community College final exams for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Why Psychology & Marriage Therapy Fails
Statistically, about half of all couples marrying this year will see their marriage end in divorce. For couples undergoing marriage therapy, surprisingly or perhaps not surprisingly, the rates of divorce are no different about one-half will suffer divorce.[1]
The Portuguese-Jewish Cemetery In Ouderkerk aan de Amstel
There is something profound and soothing in the ancient Jewish practice of using the euphemism beit chaim, "house of life," to refer to a cemetery. It is as if the rabbis did not even want to coin the phrase beit mavet, "house of death," for fear of inviting the evil eye.
Learning From 'Mother' Rachel
Throughout the centuries, following the Jewish people's exile from the land of our forefathers, when the name Rachel was evoked, the word "Imeinu"- our mother -was attached to it. Traditionally, Jews cry out to "Mother Rachel," one of the nation's four matriarchs, asking for her help in alleviating whatever woes we are enduring; beseeching her to petition Hashem on our behalf for relief and succor. Many have risked their lives to visit her burial place, known as Kever Rachel, in Bethlehem.
Respecting A Parallel Reality
It goes without saying that the process of getting set up on marriage-oriented dates, going out several times and eventually making the decision that "this is the one" is emotionally and even physically taxing. However, as hard as getting to the chuppah may be - being happily and successfully married is even more difficult and challenging. Two diverse individuals with distinctive mindsets, shaped by their unique experiences from the minute they were born, must suddenly mesh their way of looking at things and their way of reacting to them.

For both parents and teenagers alike, adolescence can be a very hard time. Unfortunately, when family life gets rough, communication tends to break down. And when it does, parents need to restore their ability to relate to their teenagers by learning about the rules of communication.
Yiddish Theater Is Alive and Well (at Least in Chicago), But What Does It...

The viewer quickly gets the sense that something really interesting is happening in the play's myriad flashbacks - which are simultaneously redundant and singular - but even after skimming the Jacob and Jack script, I'm still having trouble keeping the narrative and chronology straight.

Temper Tantrums
Dear Rabbi Horowitz: Our 10-year-old son, the oldest of our six children, has a very strong-willed personality and is very energetic. He has a very hard time sitting in school all day. (He attends school from 8:30 a.m.-4:45 p.m.) At home, he is frustrated with having to sit and do his homework. He often has temper tantrums when asked to do his work. My husband says that he is lazy and self-centered. I agree, in part, but isn't this what all children are like? Don't we have to teach them how to act properly? Thanks, Rachel
Looking For The 'Finished' Product?
I have been to many singles get-togethers over the years, and have noticed an unfortunate tendency by both men and women to give members of the opposite gender a quick glance over. Each is then given the label of being a "loser," "winner" (one worth making the effort to meet), and those who are "OK, but not really my type; so why waste my time and energy?"
In The Grace And Beauty Of The Matriarchs
When I was considering making aliyah, I was aware of how challenging the move might be, especially since much of my family stayed behind in the U.S. But the deep longing to be in Israel was too strong. It was like a giant magnet pulling on my soul, until I finally let go and came home.

Buenos Aires, buenos aires malbecs, buenos aires restaurant reviews, buenos aires US tourist, drinking wine in buenos aires, fierro hotel palermo, SF tourist, staying in palermo, travel review, vacation activities
You say romance. I say Buenos Aires. That could be because the highlight of our trip was a proposal (to me from my now fiance!), but I'm quite sure it runs deeper than that. Though Buenos Aires is a city all its own, hints of Paris and NYC shine through in the best ways. Diverse neighborhoods easily accessible by foot, historic architecture and plentiful restaurants and cafes are easy parallels to these aforementioned cities and the romantic connection that people feel when visiting.
We spent a week in Buenos Aires at the end of August, at the tail end of their winter. Quite similar to San Francisco's summer ironically. Our trip was much about relaxing, sleeping in, hitting the jacuzzi & pool at our hotel and simply spending time together (and getting engaged!!). However, seeing the sites, taking in the culture, walking, shopping, eating and drinking wine were just as important in our 6 days on the ground. The value of accommodations, food and drink was fabulous. The wine especially was a tremendous value and some of the best that we've had in some time! If you're thinking about Buenos Aires, GO! Here are some things not to miss!
Where to stay: We loved Fierro Hotel, a boutique hotel in the heart of hip Palermo Hollywood. The hotel staff is super friendly and really helped to make our trip special, often going above and beyond. Our room, the penthouse, was like our own little apartment, complete with private, outdoor jacuzzi and view, plus a very comfortable bed. The hotel pool is also a treat as they keep the temperature just right for a winter dip. If I haven't sold you yet, the hotel restaurant is not your run of the mill hotel afterthought. A well-regarded chef is in charge and it was some of the best food that we had on the trip (see below for lunch/dinner recommendations). Everyday a three-course breakfast was prepared for us including coffee, juice, fruit, yogurt, bread basket, and some of the best scrambled eggs (with serrano ham toast point) that we've had! Oh yeah, that's included in the already reasonable room rate. As you can tell, I'd highly recommend this as your home base!
Our Activity Highlights:
Cooking with Teresita – Though an hour and a half from Palermo Hollywood where we stayed, this 3.5 hour empanadas class was well worth the trip to the suburbs of Buenos Aires. Teresita welcomes you into her home for a very intimate lesson with 8 people total in her traditional kitchen. Though we certainly got our hands dirty, it was also quite relaxing with plenty of wine and chatting time, plus lots of delicious empanadas to eat! We met some great people from LA and Guatemala and have a wonderful recipe to use at home. Hint: take the bus that Teresita suggests as it is cheap and a direct route to her home. We took a cab on the way there which was a mistake. It was expensive, the driver didn't know where he was going and we wound up in some really sketchy areas.
Ballet at Teatro Colon – this theatre is amazing. The stat is something like one of the top four theatres in the world and I believe it! Reopening in the last year after years of rehabilitation has paid off. I've never seen a theatre that has been restored to a seemingly painstaking level. It's a must see and if you can actually accomplish seeing it while seeing a performance (the ballet, opera and other shows are performed here), it's a bonus. We saw "Onegin" which was the best ballet that I've seen!
We knew that we had to see some tango while in Argentina, but we really didn't want to go to a tourist trap. We made that mistake in Paris going to the Lido for a cabaret and were really disappointed. After getting much advice from our lovely hotel staff, we ended up at Carlos Gardel, supposedly one of the more traditional renditions as opposed to a hollywood rendition. While the venue itself is touristy and they try to sell you on everything they can (and the drinks were highly overrated), the show itself was quite enjoyable. We opted out of dinner which was the right call and ate before we went. For tango shows which are bound to be tourist traps, I would recommend seeing this one. They showcased a number of different styles of tango and the dancers were amazing!
For an escape from city life, the Palermo Woods are beautiful. It was a refreshing destination with a rose garden, little lakes and a quaint art museum. We had some fun and exercise renting peddle boats on the lake and roamed around the gardens for the afternoon. This also happens to be where we got engaged, so it, of course, holds a special place in our hearts :). For a true escape and some definite romance (no proposal required!), put a few hours aside for this outdoor adventure.
To see the entire city in one go, the Buenos Aires bus, operated by the city, is the way to go. We covered a lot of ground in a few hours and could have hopped on and off as much as we liked. A recorded guide allows you to gain some historical knowledge in any language as you ride the double decker bus. One week is too short of a time to see all that the city has to offer, so this condensed city-wide tour was perfect.
Anuva Wines does wine tastings with food pairings a few times a day at the Rendezvous Hotel in Palermo. It's a great way to see Palermo if you aren't staying in the neighborhood and it's a wonderful way to try some delicious Argentine wines! The pours are generous and the food a tasty snack. Our lovely sommelier is native to the US, but has lived in Argentina for a few years. She was quite knowledgeable and very personable. Not only did we walk out with four bottles of wine (we could have bought a lot more – they were fantastic!!), she also sent us off with restaurant and shopping recommendations. Most of the great Argentine wines aren't exported to the US, so Anuva is a terrific resource for purchasing wine in the future. The San Gimignano producer was one of our favorites!
Hungry?? Well, hop on that 14 hour flight (from SF) because the food and wine in Buenos Aires is muy bueno and easy on the old pocketbook. Word to the wise…ready yourself for cat naps before dinner because most restaurants don't open until 8:30pm. While all ethnicities and varieties are represented, Parillas (steakhouses) are by far the most popular. The smell of steak wafts through the streets at any given hour. We managed to have steak 3 times on our trip and were wanting more. One important tidbit is that they do not salt their steaks prior to cooking or serving them. Hence, you'll find salt on every table and you need it! Our first steak, though good, was surprisingly unseasoned and we were wrongly in the mindset that it was not prepared well.
Miranda was our favorite overall experience on the Parilla front. I will give some credit of that to Julian & Denise who joined us for dinner and made us feel quite at home throughout our trip (thank you!). They also taught us the Parilla ropes here (thank you again!). However, the restaurant itself was also fantastic with a hip, lively atmosphere and top notch food. It's quite NYC! While the steak was grilled to perfection and good, the desserts were to die for! This should be on your list, though at least go for dessert if that's all you can fit.
Other restaurant recommendations:
- La Cabrera – a very traditional Parilla experience. We're talking old school (and a tad touristy), but a fun atmosphere, nonetheless, topped with an honest steak and accompaniments. Thankfully, they encouraged us to share a steak which was the way to go as they are enorme! Not to miss…the malbec! One of our favorites on the trip, we had the Ciclos blend. Dessert was so-so, but you can't win them all.
- Bio Restaurant – a perfect stop for lunch, this is a vegetarian spot that is diet relief after filling up on loads of beef! The space is rustic and super cute with a very laid back, coffee house feel. We tried a spinach pizza with vegan cheese that filled our veggie quota for the day and the cheese was surprisingly cheese-like!
- Hernan Gipponi – Located in our boutique hotel (Fierro), this is a fit for foodies restaurant indeed. Our breakfast every day was three courses with some of the best scrambled eggs, cooked to perfection. For dinner, the menu is heavy on seafood, but a welcome departure from beef everywhere else! All of the food, whether breakfast or dinner, was beautifully presented on the plate and thoughtfully prepared. We had a most delicious scallop appetizer and halibut that melted in our mouths when we joined the restaurant for dinner. A treat to be had!
- Sirop Folie – another lunch find, this cafe down a quaint alley in Recoleta was a great resting point after walking through the must-see Recoleta Cemetary. Rustic and charming, here we had the best Submarino (steamed milk with a bar of chocolate dropped in), alfajores (dulce de leche sandwich cookies) and a nice salad. It's known for afternoon tea (around 5pm), but it was the perfect lunch.
- El Mirasol Campo y Mar – Our last dinner in Buenos Aires and another ribeye down, the views of the Puerto Madera waterway was worth the ride from Palermo. We arrived on a Sunday evening around 8:15 and were the only people in the restaurant until our dessert arrived. The waiter was attentive and slid in a few special touches that made our meal special. The steak was the best on our trip. It was super tender with the hint of fat that a ribeye should have and a ton of flavor (even without salt!). The music and dining room was romantic…sigh…what a perfect ending! We also loved yet another bottle of wine – this time only a half bottle – phew!
Well, I could go on as you may have guessed! Our trip was dreamy and our first time in South America did not disappoint. We came back well fed, well walked, a little more educated, bejeweled, engaged (hence the jewels), relaxed and ready for our next adventure. A trip of a lifetime in our case, but a trip for anyone to be sure! Enjoy!
