Verao em New York
Quem disse que e preciso gastar muito pra se divertir em NYC?
Não estou sugerindo comer hot dog a viagem toda, mas aproveitar as boas atracões da cidade e que são na faixa - literalmente:
Agora no verão sugiro aproveitar os Parques, os festivais de verão, e se conseguir se programar direitinho assista uma peca de Sheakspeare no Central Park, com artistas de primeiro escalão e de graça ainda por cima. Isso mesmo de graça!!
Adorei...! Assiti Twelfth Night no verão passado com nada menos que Anne Hathaway. Esse Al Pacino faz o Mercador de Veneza (The Merchant of Venice).
Confira a programação desse ano: http://www.shakespeareinthepark.org/

O Brasil dos GrinGos
Estive no Rio esse fim de semana e na nossa roda surgiu o tema "os gringos estao invandindo o Brasil".
Eu sou defensora homérica dessa tese que ja virou constatacao. Quem vive em Sao Paulo e no Rio começa a "dividir" a metrópole e a influenciar e ser influenciado por eles. Como tudo na vida, existe os dois lados: o bom e o ruim.
A globalizacao, diversidade, mix cultural. Posso praticar meu inglês todos os dias - ao invés de pagar aula de conversação, saio pra jantar com meus amigos gringos, que por sinal estao aprendendo o português rápido e bem. Eles aplicam a mesma técnica com a gente...
E por falar em jantar, foi-se o tempo em que podíamos chamar um restaurante de familiar. Hoje os melhores restaurantes estao coalhados de gringos, executivos de multinacionais que estao pegando "senha" pra serem transferidos pro Brasil, e viver vida de ex-patriado, o que significa alugar uma casa no Jardim Europa, ou um loft no Itaim, almoçar nos restos da moda e badalar na noite paulistana pagando a conta com um cartão Platinum/Black PJ*. E o que sobra pra nos simples PF (pessoa física)? A conta salgada e inflacionada no fim do dia.
Me ofereceu, fiquei mesmo no suco de tangerina, mas a surpresa veio na hora da conta.
Os pratos estavam incriveis, com valor medio de R$50, mas a champagne que eles passaram oferecendo no almoço custava a bagatela de R$47 a taca. Gente nao é ser "cheap" é ter percepção de valor. Chegamos a conclusão que as unicas PF do restaurante éramos nos.
Portanto amigos brazucas PF se preparem para enfrentar a concorrencia dos gringos no trabalho, na balada e nos restaurantes.
Enquanto o Brasil continuar nesse ritmo de crescimento e com essa receptividade, Pedro Alvares Cabral vai ser substituido rapidinho pela nova geracao de descobridores.
Pra terminar vejam so os Lençois Maranhenses no NYTimes:

Champagne
E pra quem
curte uma boa champagne, a dica é pegar o
TGV de Paris a Reims (na região de Champagne) e de la alugar um carro e ir ate
Epernais, visitando as vinícolas.
Fiquei hospedada no Chateaux Le Crayeres, uma verdadeira atração a
parte, com restaurante estrelado pelo guia Michelin e ao lado da Pommery, casa
famosa no mundo todo.
Sugiro a
visita a Pommery, alem do imperdível tour particular a Don
Perignon que, juntamente com a
Cristal é considerada a melhor champagne do mundo, e pertence a Moet
Chandon. Se tiver mais tempo de um
pulo a Veuve Clicquot ou a Mumm. Salut!!!

Lisboa by Valerio Marega
Pra quem esta indo pra "Leixboaa..." e aprecia boa comida e bebida, entao caiu no post certo!!
Siga a trilha do meu amigo Valerio Marega, que esta sempre por la a negócios e assim como eu, e chegado na gastronomia e nos bons vinhos.
*Largo - no Chiado – Mais novo, decoração linda, aquários
negros com água viva, bom atendimento. Em frente a loja Marc Jacobs (tinha uma
vaquinha cow parade laranja)
Solar dos Presuntos - portas de santo antão, tradicional cheio de fotos de
artistas brasileiros – garçons estão la há mais de 20 anos
Tavares Rico – Super tradicional fundado no século 17, mas com um novo chef
Francês (acho que tem estrela no Michelin). Decoração clássica, com detalhes em
ouro. Come-se muito pouco (pra gordo eheheehe)
Solar dos Nunes – Também super tradicional parecido com o Solar dos
Presuntos.
Pap Açorda – Bairro alto, esse e um bar onde vai os casais modernos de Lisboa,
comida muito boa, servem um prato chamado Açorda que e uma espécie de Midas (farinha / pão) com lagosta e camarão e coentro, muito bom.
Bica do Sapato – Fica em frete ao rio Tejo, dos mesmos donos do Pap, ao lado da
Lux boate da moda em Lisboa, moçada mais nova.
Meninos do Rio – Ao lado do Bica do Sapato serve comida japonesa em frente ao rio, estilo lual, moçada nova e descontraída
Coelho da Rocha – Na rua coelho da rocha, tradicional, serve pratos tipo empadão de lebre, tradicional para os lisboetas mais antigos.
Pinóquio – Tradicionalíssimo, na praça libertadores, servem o camarão no vapor de entrada e uma frigideira com file ( chamado de pica pau ) muito bom, em cima da calçada.

Agora um ponto que não agrada quem toma bons vinhos. TODAS AS GARRAFAS que eu
tomei la foram na temperatura ambiente, no verão isso e um problema, mas no
inverno passa bem, mas uma resfriadinha não faria mal algum em um Pêra Manca
2005, Quinta do Crasto, Pintas, Maria Teresa, Quinta D.Maria. VINHAÇOS que não
perdem em nada para os Bordeaux franceses.
O bom é o custo. Come-se muitíssimo bem com preços não tão caros quanto Londres, NY ou mesmo Madrid e Roma.

Guia Buenos Aires by ASW
People..!! Faço parte da rede social ASW (www.asmallworld.net)* e achei interessante o guia de Buenos Aires. Seguem as dicas by ASW pro pessoal que esta indo e pra mim também que pretendo marcar minha viagem logo logo pra praticar minhas aulas de Tango...LoL!!!
Palermo: Buenos Aires’ Hip, Pulsating Heart
When the 2001 economic crisis hit, Buenos Aires’ creative class picked up the pieces by sparking a cultural renaissance. The city’s Palermo district served as the HQ of this revolution as designers, film types and galleries took over the then-cheap old buildings. Seven years later, Palermo is the established heart of all that is hip in the city. During our recent visit, local ASWers let us in on the secrets of their address books.
It’s all about the beef in BA. Get your prime cuts at La Cabrera, reputed to be one of the city’s best parrillas (steak joints) and the perfect spot for curing a hangover, according to Fernando Bach. Social Paraiso is another staple for its lovely service and inventive fusion cuisine. For a quick lunch, Anne-Maria Korpi’s pick is El Preferido de Palermo, also a choice of Francis Ford Coppola, who has a house nearby. For a break from the meat, head to Krishna, a kitschy canteen offering amazing vegetarian thali. And for dessert, try Scannapieco (Cordoba 4826) for the best ice-cream ever and a time warp – circa 1950s or so – experience.
The Rojo Tango Show at the dramatic Faena Hotel is a night out like no other. And be sure to get to Congo – a bar boasting an enormous outdoor terrace and a particularly good atmosphere on Thursday nights, according to girl-about-town Loli Delger. But, get there before the queues start at 11. You might want to continue the party and head on to Club 69. For a less hectic night out, try Milión. And of course, needless to say, keep an eye on the ASW forums as parties happen in BA all the time!
Bring an extra suitcase or better still, plan a shipping budget. With all the tantalizing objects – modern and antique – on offer, you might decide to refurnish your pad. For antiques, the old but rather touristy Feria San Pedro Telmo on Sundays is mandatory. In Palermo, don’t miss the daily Mercado de las Pulgas, which is chock-full of chandeliers, mid-century furniture and other curiosities at bargain rates.
Calma Chicha is a favorite for fun souvenirs, such as the penguin wine jugs, and try Papelera Palermo for the prettiest notepads and wrapping paper. For earthy, indigenous Argentine wares, check out the technicolor carpets from the country’s northwest at Fernando Bach’s Elementos Argentinos. For cowhides, try Calma Chicha or head out to Boedo and pick up a bargain from the wholesale Nueva Casa Antonio, which also sells to the passing retail shopper.
Materia Urbana is the spot for crafts and prints by contemporary local artists. At Sabater Hermanos, you'll find divinely scented handmade soaps in the shape of flakes, golf balls and plain old, multicoloured bars. Lode Joaquin Alberdi has an extensive selection of that other great local product - wine
Loaf
At the Crack-Up bar and café there’s a jumble of Spanish-language books and a host of amusing (and literary) local characters. The courtyard garden of the very hip Olsen is an oasis for those mid-afternoon stops for coffee or vodka shots from the bar’s extensive menu. If BA inspires you to attempt some poetry or prose, a good place to spark up your laptop is the courtyard café of Boutique del Libro, a bookstore lined floor-to-ceiling with art tomes and other books.
Throw a stone in Palermo and you are likely to hit a boutique hotel. While Home Hotel’s rooms are mini sanctuaries, the hotel also provides two out-of-room oases: its rocking bar and secluded pool. Costa Petit, co-owned by artist Diego Padilla and interior designer Eugenia Choren, is another recommended gem.
In neighboring Las Cañitas, Mariquel Waingarten’s Tailor Made lives up to its name with in-room Mac Minis, hydrotherapy tubs and free bike rentals. In Recoleta, the magnificent Palacio Duhau - Park Hyatt is enchanting. Sometime BA habitué Luigi Tadini recommends having a drink at the neo-classical mansion’s Oak Lounge, overlooking its beautiful gardens.
If you are staying for a week, you might consider renting. There are plenty of lofts available and the new-ish Palermo Hollywood Lofts are fabulously appointed.
If you’ve had enough of BA’s bustle, the flat countryside around the city has many estancias (ranches) that welcome wannabe gauchos and aspiring polo players for short visits.
Head out to Estancia El Rocio on the Pampas (the plains between the Atlantic Ocean to the Andes), which is owned by former financier Patrice Graviere and his wife, Macarena Llambi. Packed with art and mementoes from their travels, the estancia is an extremely stylish getaway, which should come as no surprise since Macarena used to run Hermès in BA.
Eat your fill of the chef's meals - made with local produce and unbelievable vegetables from El Rocio’s organic patch - and then work it all off with a ride around some of the ranch’s 400 acres, guided by polo manager, Camilo Moreno Crotto. It’s easy to spend days and days here - bird watching, learning polo or simply lolling about the pool.
If all you want to do is get out of Palermo, then explore the city’s other nabes and its traditional tourist attractions. Take a walk amongst the magnificent tombstones at Cementerio de la Recoleta or venture to up-and-coming Boedo (think Greenpoint in Brooklyn or Hackney in London) for a bistro lunch at Café Margot. There’s also tango and theatre to be had in the hood. See www.boedomas10.com.ar for more details.
On the edge of Palermo is Villa Crespo – the next big thing, neighborhood-wise. Billed ‘Palermo Queens’ (to complement the existing Palermo Hollywood and Palermo Soho quarters), the area is home to Thames 878, the ‘secret’ gathering spot for ASW porteños. Watch the numbers or you’ll miss it since there are no signs for the bar. Further on, the area on the fringes of La Chacarita cemetery has been nicknamed ‘Palermo Dead,’ the new, new frontier. ASW has penciled in a tour of the hip haunts that are sure to be there by our next visit.

Bal Harbour Shops
E depois do dia inteiro no Sawgrass, se acotovelando com os hispanos que vivem na região, reserve o dia seguinte pra experimentar a vida mansa de quem vive em North Miami, mais precisamente em Bal Harbour e Sunny Isle .
A dica é aproveitar sua manha de praia, piscina e SPA, e depois ir passear no shopping Bal Harbour, o mais floridian de todos os shoppings: alamedas ao ar livre, muito verde, ventiladores de teto, laguinho com carpas, super agradável, quase uma extensão da praia. Mas não se engane com toda essa casualidade.

Reserve uma mesa no Carpaccio de preferência no pátio, pra conferir a chegada das Lamborghinis, Ferraris e outros coupes, com homens de camisa florida, bermuda e Pateck Philipe e mulheres de vestidão, Havaianas e Rolex (de ouro com muitos brilhantes de preferência). A Florida é assim mesmo, um playground pra todos!
Bal Harbour Shops
O que comprar – Bolsas, sapatos e acessórios de grifes como Chanel, Prada, Gucci. A diferença de preço entre Brasil e EUA chega a ser de 50%. Dependendo de sua compra já conseguiu pagar seu ticket pra Miami.
Quando ir – Qualquer dia, mas fim de semana é mais descontraído.
Dica – Se você esta de olho naquela Chanel 255 pode chegar e se decepcionar com a resposta: “I’m sorry it’s sold out”. A verdade e que os brasileiros estão acabando com o estoque das lojas. Minha dica e alguns dias antes e fazer a encomenda.
Onde Comer – No italiano Carpaccio, a burrata e imperdível e as massas são excelentes, com destaque para o Fetuccine com Lagosta (preferido do meu padrinho, habituée do local). Ambiente descontraído com power scene no almoço.
