Louis Vuitton just got “smarter” but it comes with a hefty price! July 12th I attended the launch party of the Tambour Horizon Watch at the Louis Vuitton boutique in the Houston Galleria. All I can say is….WOW!!! Apple you have some BIG competition in the smart watch division.
Sipping on champagne and cocktails mixed with music provided by a resident DJ made for a mix and mingling fashion forward unveiling event! My friends and I had a great time browsing the latest inventory, socializing with fashionistas, and of course getting familiar with the guest of honor….the Tambour Horizon watch! Thank you Tenley Huste aka Regional Retail Training Manager of Louis Vuitton for presenting to us all of the benefits of this savvy new gadget! It’s a game changer!
I recently traveled to Quebec in Canada and fell in love! The whole Province is French speaking and everything about Quebec is simply charming. The architecture, rich history, food, art, and culture, it is not what I expected for Canada. My first stop was to the city of Montreal , and on the first night my husband surprised me with a romantic dinner at a renowned Relais & Chateaux restaurant. I did not research for this trip at all (and on purpose) and had zero expectations, and I had no idea what was in store!
We pull up to Europea in a charming neighborhood. I am immediately drawn to the old world look of the building. When we enter they take us upstairs to an intimate table for two. As I look around I see a few couples, some business people, and all looked very entertained and pleased. I glance at the menu (in French) and before I had to make any decisions my husband said “Let’s have the chef’s tasting dinner!” Lo and behold, a 12-course meal was in queue plus wine pairing! Celebrity chef Jerome Ferrer and his team of highly trained and engaging servers certainly put on a show. An almost theatrical kind of affair one would say. Each course had a surprise. Courses were served in books, boxes, clay pots for us to hammer open, there was steam, and fire, and grand finale cotton candy trees. Every plate was a work of fine art and tasted delicious. They love their fois gras in this town and their dessert too. Plus, the wines they chose were absolutely exquisite and the perfect enhancing match for each entrée it was served. We were overly stimulated I must say but in the best way and they even sent us home with wrapped gifts!
