And The Dish Ran Away with the Spoon
What a lovely sunny day to celebrate the first year of the prettiest coffee shop in Manchester, And The Dish Ran Away with the Spoon.
If you ask me, there is not one single thing to change about this place! The cupcakes are simply delicious and ridiculously pretty, a large selection of coffee and tea to satisfy the pickiest customers, and an absolutely adorable and friendly staff too!
They also propose afternoon tea parties, and cupcake decorating classes!(http://www.dishandspoonfood.co.uk/)
AND all these pieces of heaven come at a very little price too!! Now I'm happy :-)

Marie Louise Gardens, Didsbury, Manchester
This is definitelty one of my favourite place in Manchester. There is this unique peaceful feeling, full of History and souvenirs. It is like a secret hidden place, and a lot of locals do not even know the existence of the gardens.
Find out more about the Marie Louise Gardens on its beautiful website:

The Art of Raclette
Raclette is a dish indigenous to parts of Switzerland and the Savoy region of France. The Raclette cheese round is heated, either in front of a fire or by a special machine, then scraped onto diners' plates. Traditionally, it is accompanied by small firm potatoes, gherkins, pickled onions, and dried meat, such as jambon cru/cuit and viande des Grisons.
