Despite these days of kitchen wizardry, makeovers and gadgets galore nothing is more enticing than the heady smell of freshly brewed coffee or freshly baked bread. Many coffee lovers swear on the fact that the humble cafetiere is the best method to brew coffee, since it preserves the delicate flavours from the oils, giving a smooth, rich bodied flavour.
History & Design
The exact history and origin of the cafetiere is not clear. Both the French and the Italians lay claims to its invention. What is known is that the first cafetieres appeared in France in the 1850s, but first patented by Attilio Calimani in 1931. Today one statistic suggests that over 63 million of these simple devices are in use world wide.
The early coffee pots were made of metal and fitted with a metal screen attached to a rod. The metal screen would be ...
Advantages: Great food, reasonable fixed price menu Disadvantages: None
On our recent trip to the Loire Valley Mr Tart and myself arrived in Tours quite late on our first night. We drove down to Tours from Paris. We were going to stop for something to eat on the way but in the end decided to make our way straight to Tours and get settled in the hotel and then find something close by. A couple of minutes from our hotel we came across this place and were really glad that we did.
LOCATION:
La Chope is located at 25 Avenue Grammont. Our hotel was on the same road so we just came across it. It is about a ten minute walk from Tours? old town. The restaurant doesn?t stand out and the sign is not particularly bright so make sure you look out for it.
THE EXPERIENCE:
La Chope (which apparently translates as the tankard) is actually a fish restaurant. I?m not really a fish person (ok, that ...

Advantages: Pink and a pleasing retro shape. Disadvantages: 'Stiff' lid, the black handle and base feels oppressive.
Let me tell you a little about my tea-making habits. I am a tea-a-holic. Some people have food, others cigarette, but I have tea. I must drink a maximum of 10 cups a day. Probably because I use making a cup of tea as part of my break from study.
I was attracted to the LaCafetiere pink kettle just over a year ago. It was the only pink kettle of its kind on the market, and it had that label 'limited edition' attached to it which forces me into panic buy mode.
The RRP price is around £50. I think I paid just under in John Lewis. This is rather a hefty price considering it is just a teapot with pink enamel. But I guess they prey on suckers like me who will buy anything pink for their kitchen. However, compared to other luxury teapots on the market, it is about average.
I use this teapot in conjunction with a water filter ...
