World Famous Ladurée Paris French Tea Room - Honest Review

The most famous macarons in the world are made by Ladurée, located in Paris, France. We spent 4 days and 3 nights at the Novotel Paris Centre Tour Eiffel since it’s in a great spot just a few minutes walk from Novotel to Laduree and Lafayette Beaugrenelle and a big food shopping center nearby!

We enjoyed our afternoon tea at Laduree, and we were really impressed by the selection of macarons. They weren't too sweet, but each flavour was delicious and incredibly fresh. They all had natural flavours with a hint of almond. The macarons came with cappuccino, sencha, and jasmine green tea, which made for a great combo.

Parisian Dream is all about Laduree for gourmet treats! The staff are super friendly and have a great vibe, and they’re really nice to vloggers.

I have wrote an Google review regarding the amazing staffs, desserts and atmosphere, all rated at 5 stars. We absolutely love Paris and will definitely be returning again and again! This video is not sponsored and originates from last December.

We returned to the Novotel to pick up our luggage's, and we also enjoyed the beautiful sunsets from the balcony. After that, our Uber showed up outside the hotel and took us to the airport. It took around 50 minutes, depending on how busy it was. I remember last time it took us an hour to airport, so make sure to arrive early if you have a big luggage check in, just in case the luggage counter closes.

Budapest Danube River Night Cruise - Párisi Udvar Hotel Budapest | Michelin Fine Dining Restaurant 2025

At the start, there's a brief trailer showcasing night sightseeing along with dining at the Párisi Udvar Hotel Budapest.

Uber in Budapest is more affordable than in Paris. For one ride, it only costs around £7, depending on the distance and whether it's a busy time or not. Honestly, it's really budget-friendly compared to other countries in Europe.

Párisi Passage Restaurant is a fine-dining spot nestled in the historic 5-star Párisi Udvar hotel in Budapest, known for its stunning Art Nouveau design and its fantastic location in a turn-of-the-century building. The restaurant offers breakfast, afternoon tea, and à la carte options, showcasing a range of European-inspired dishes in a classy setting with a smart casual dress code.

We made an online reservation and arrived at 7 PM. We had a 2-hour dining experience there, and overall, it was quite enjoyable.

Atmosphere & Architecture
The restaurant is located in the stunning Art Nouveau atrium of the Párisi Udvar hotel, often regarded as a masterpiece of lavish design. Notable architectural elements include elaborate patterns, sculptural details and a breath-taking glass ceiling, making it a super iconic place for photos and videos and a unique location.

Below are the list what we eat included the local prices. Also, convert the Hungarian currency to euros. The service is amazing so the service charge is well worth for it.

Japanese Green Tea 3370 - €9
1 Beer 2490 - €7
1 Beef Sirloin / Medium 25900 - €66.20
1 Wiener Schnitzel 15900 - €41
Must request the mustard and ketchup for this dishes.
Service charge 15% 7148 - €19
= 54808 €145

Must try Parisi gorgeous signature dessert, the Párisi Cube. A dark chocolate dessert filled with coffee-rum ganache and milk chocolate mousse inspired by one of the most traditional and iconic Hungarian delights.

I rated it a 9 out of 10, which is a pretty high score for dining in Budapest is a real treat, especially at a 5-star hotel restaurant surrounded by stunning scenery. It's surprisingly affordable, allowing you to enjoy a meal in a gorgeous royal palace with good service, good foods and good drinks. Live performances by singers add an extra layer of enjoyment to the entire atmosphere.

After the dinner, we use the uber app to a short ride to a cruise for the beautiful night scene which are already made an reservation in getyourfguide. Make sure to book early before they sell out so fast!

We paid £25, which included a welcome drinks for two, and we booked for 9:15 PM. We got there 15 minutes early since it was our first time, and we weren't sure where to find our seats. The best ones are at the top for the best views. It's totally worth it for what it is, especially when you see the stunning night views in Budapest. We are definitely coming back for sure!

While we were at the Mystery hotel, it was super close to the boat port. Ubers are really convenient and way cheaper than in Paris, almost half the price for each ride. Thanks for watching everyone! Wishing you all a happy everyday!

Breakfast at the Most Beautiful café in the World - New York Café

Hey Everyone :) Good morning! We’ve got the breakfast buffet at the Anantara (Deep Water Breakfast Room). The vibe feels just like a classic movie. There’s a crowd every day since it’s the most beautiful café in the world, and tons of people are waiting in line outside. The live musicians are super talented, and the atmosphere is absolutely incredible!

The staff took care of us, and they were really polite and knowledgeable. Hearing someone compliment me by saying I look beautiful, that I'm pretty, that they love my smile and my outfit, really made my day :) You all are so sincere and kind hearted :)

As soon as you sit down, the waiter pours some freshly squeezed orange juice into your glass and hands you the menu so you can decide what you'd like to order, including any special requests.

My favourite thing in the morning is a pot of jasmine green tea and sencha green tea; they taste amazing and authentic, 100% top-notch quality.

You can request your fried eggs, and the talented chef will prepare them right in front of you. The golden yolks are stunning, with a crispy base and a smooth, slightly runny texture that I absolutely loved and enjoyed it a lot. Importantly, not greasy at all. Frying an egg seems super easy, but making the perfect one is a whole different story.

Making a Reservation: You can see what's available and book breakfast options while reserving your room on the hotel's official site. Private Service: If you're looking for something special, the hotel has a "Luxury Breakfast with Private Service" option. I'm definitely going to book this for my future stays before I check in.

You can check out the details and maybe even book breakfast packages right on the hotel's official site, Anantara.

I'm really looking forward to trying it on my next trip back here.

What’s on the menu: The breakfast buffet features a variety of fresh fruits, juices, warm pastries, and classic Hungarian hot dishes.

Everything you can find on the classic breakfast buffet for hotel guests. We pick our favourite and set up a nice breakfast spread. so we can enjoy it without having to run around multiple times. Everything's right there on the table for us to enjoy.

Incredible atmosphere. well trainned staffs, delicious food, and great teas, making for a joyful breakfast experience. The pastries and croissants have the beautiful textures.

My Honest Review of 5-Star Hotel | Anantara New York Palace

A trailer of of Anantara New York Palace Budapest moments that truly lifts my spirits. From the bellhop to the front desk receptionist.

Every detail surprised me from the moment I walked in, when the lifts took us up, it was yet another wow, wow, wow moment. The hotel’s service was top-notch, 100% truly the best! I've travelled to many countries in Europe, but this place is where I experienced genuine hospitality.

Our room number is 507, Executive suite with terrace was incredible and worth every penny. When I opened the door, I was totally surprised. The tea table had everything I could ask for, with a fantastic selection of high-quality teas. The kettle was spotless, just like the new ones you buy. I loved brewing the teas, relaxing on the sofas, and reading the books provided by the hotel.

The chocolate cakes are freshly baked every day, and the strawberries are sliced and brought to our room accompanied by a warm smile and joyful birthday greetings. I celebrated my birthday with my husband ItalyPaul on this expansive balcony that provides 360-degree views, resembling a rooftop. It’s truly incredible! This experience is unforgettable and totally worth it!

JING Tea Jasmine Pearl and Jade Sword Green Tea are hands down the best flavors ever! The only hotel we stayed at offered a selection of premium brands and flavors that were genuinely delightful, especially since we're tea enthusiasts! I discovered that the UK also sells JING TEA on the website jingtea.com/collections/chinese-tea. I spent £60 to get free delivery in the UK. I'm so thrilled!

The pillows at the hotel are super comfy, and I had a great night's sleep. The bathrooms are spacious and exceptionally clean, featuring a large mirror, hand wash, soap, shower, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, and a hairbrush. The toilet paper is of premium quality, and all the amenities provided truly reflect a genuine 5-star service. I was also pleasantly surprised by the jacuzzi and all the impressive features!

The spa here is incredibly relaxing. The pools are sufficiently warm and appear to be clean. Additionally, there is a sauna, a gym, and massage services available. When we arrived at the pool area, there were a few couples who graciously allowed us to enjoy our time together. They were all very kind to us. Before back to our room, we noticed they were in the sauna, and we expressed our gratitude for their kindness, saying thank you and good night.

The hotel staff are exceptionally friendly and always willing to assist with a smile. As hotel guests, we were able to bypass the long queue outside the iconic New York Café, gaining immediate VIP access as guests of the hotel to the most renowned café in the world!

The most unforgettable 5-star hotel, café and restaurant I've ever been to was absolutely the leading luxury hotel in the world. I gave it a perfect score of 10 out of 10!

I will create a separate video showcasing the hotel’s breakfast. After we finish our breakfast, we can choose to check out either online or at the front desk, depending on our preference.

We also made a reservation for lunch at the New York Café, but since we aren't feeling very hungry, we opted for something light and ordered two glasses of iced tea, which is quite delightful! So refreshing! After that, we plan to take a walk to a large supermarket for some snack shopping, and I will also feature Hungarian supermarket snacks in the next video.

Ubers in Budapest are roughly half the price of those in Paris for a one-way ride. On the other hand, Ubers in Copenhagen are the priciest. Overall, Ubers in Budapest are super polite and helpful, and the fares are quite reasonable for multiple trips.

We are bringing smiles back to homes, and we will definitely return very soon.

Looking forward to seeing you in the next episode, which will showcase the local supermarket and snacks. Thank you for watching :)

Satisfying ASMR: My Everyday Afternoon Tea from Scratch - How to Make Delicious Coffee from Coffee Beans - Home Café

Last year, I made a video on how to brew coffee without a machine, combine together all that homemade goodness with cup of coffee art. I've removed my old iPhone device as I've changed a new iPhone. Unfortunately, it automatically reset it, and I never imagined that all my videos would disappear. The only way to get them back is through iCloud, but my account is not enough on storage. since I've been using USB sticks, SSDs, and hard drives instead. So, all my hard work is just gone, it really upset me on that day. But hey, I made it again, and now it’s all done ✔️

The videos showcase my daily afternoon treats, documenting my everyday coffee time with my dear husband. The videos showcase my daily afternoon treats, documenting my everyday coffee time with my dear husband. I've selected most favourited moments to put together in this single video, showing how to brew coffee from beans without using a coffee machine, plus some must-have afternoon snacks.
I really hope you enjoy watching it!

Making coffee is all about the journey from the bean to the cup. It starts with grinding the beans, then brewing the coffee, and don’t forget frothing the milk! Every afternoon, my kitchen fills with the rich aroma of coffee, just like a coffee shop. It’s such a great way to lift my energy and mood, making me feel more relaxed and happy :)

All the baked goods recipes are originate from my YouTube channel :)

My favourite’s coffee beans brands
1) Taylor’s Lazy Sunday Coffee Beans
2) illy Dark/ Medium roast

(I used 100ml moka pot for 2 cups).

Directions:
Step 1: Grind coffee beans into ground coffee
Step 2: Fill filter water below safety valve
Step 3: Fill coffee basket with coffee grounds
Smooth the surface without compacting it.

''Tighten upper pot prevent coffee overflow-ing.
High heat for 6-7 minutes, set automatically turn off''.

If you drink espresso, now it’s done. Enjoy!

If you drink cappuccino, cortado, latte, flat white and add your favourite milk into frother maker for a minimum of 75ml milk for the best frothing result. I recommend using whole milk, I placed my milk on top of the most coldest place. For me, it’s a therapeutic to me to brewing coffee everyday and enjoy. you create the little happiness for yourself!
