Funny story about grapefruit ...
Back on the dark ages, with didn't had grapefruit here on the backyard.
First trip to US, breakfast, it was to me like to be on a Hollywood movie.
Ordered grapefruit, taste it and ... Terrible!!! Very acid, very disappointed.
I never dare to taste grapefruit again and I labeled it "gringo stuff".
Little did I know that everything that we taste is an acquired one.
But, by the end, I prefer Vodka to Tequila and lime (that we call here Limão) to grapefruit.
Cheers,
Nilo

Cool. This weekend starts to be great ...
What a beautiful monopusher!!! I need to pay a visit to the MB boutique, for sure. Cheers, Nilo
'Oat soda'? . . .
. . . is that kinda like 'root beer'? One oat soda for me, please! :-)
Well, the topic was 'food' and watches ...
Oats: there not just for breakfast anymore.
Hamburger…
Honestly, I love cooking and eating good food, but I never understood people who need to take phone photos of their dishes in all places and post them online. That’s almost as obsessive as Selfies. So let me take this week’s WS on food from a different an...
Another burger watch....
I agree with you, CC! :) Here is another GP burger: Ref 8021, 37 mm in diameter and 13 mm thick! HAGWE Blomman ...

On a recent business trip to the coast, I brought along my Richard Lange.. and enjoyed some locally sourced fish, superb! Great theme, and looking forward to some tasty pics! Best. Colton ...
Fish with sautéed escarole? . . .
. . . hmmm . . . I'll ask Miguel for a special order someday soon . . .
Good eye ;)
Tuna ceviche, Salmon and prawns.. followed by locally sourced Sablefish and Escarole. Please excuse the unfocused wristshot. They also have an excellent Ahi Tuna, ahh I am looking forward to the next time I can find an excuse to visit that wonderful ci...
My philosophy . . .
. . . of life: "Drive German, eat Italian, and drink . . . . . . Mexican. You can't go wrong." :-) ...
That category is filed under . . .
. . . 'Drive German.' As all German cars are at least good, then it follows all German mechanical products are likewise. Just as all Italian cuisine is at least good, and the same for Mexican libations. Can't go wrong with a German . . . . . . on your wri...
What a delectable pizza! . . .

Great shots! :) The Red + Tomatoes is my favorite! HAGWE Blomman
Awesome pictures my dear Nicolas! I shouldn´t be surprised ...

A JLC for every taste..
Bohemian, indulgent, or vegan. Beautiful photos of stunning watches, dear Nico! You only miss one with cold cervezas beachside ;-) Fuerte abrazo, Alex
Dinking a blend of Columbian . . .
. . . arabica with peaberry beans from Java and Honduras in equal measure as I write these lines, Nilo, plus dates for breakfast. If I were in São Paolo, I'd prepare a bowl . . . . . . of guacamole for you. If you were here, you'd be dining on Miguel's . ...
Chef with that...
cap and t-shirt deserves at least one Michelin star IMHO ;) :) Best D
When Wolfgang Puck had his famous restaurant . . .
. . . a few blocks away, he would come to Miguel's establishment for dinner. A four-star chef's destination should also rate four stars, no?
Again, hs suggested to me, RWS to enter WS: .. Although, I unlikely will.. :)
..start with my own account - So bear with me, one more time, please ! - Already here some limitation: not enough watches probably, in my realm but I chose one that hs and myself sometimes share in wearing, as it's a heirloom from my late father : Nothing...
Nothing quite so charming . . .
. . . as an Omega from the era when they were at the top of their game. Utterly lovely. And thank you for joining in again, R. Art
Great to see you back, RWS!
I think you are destine to be here in the WS considering you R' WS! ;) Lovely Omega Seamaster. Could it be that it is Reference 901? This reference came with several different hands and dial versions... 1958: 1959: HAGWE Blomman ...
We think, you're likely right.. Your repository is phantastic ! :)
