This post has no pictures. What this post does have is a massive rant. In a height of massive disappointment I have not felt since a restaurant on the JBR Walk lost my patronage forever by telling my dinner party that the meat in front of us always tasted like the bowels...
"We need to find the Mona Lisa!" I squealed. My partner in crime last night was @movie_mafia, who whipped her head back and forth to spot the elusive, smiling woman. Fear not...I was not luring the young MM into a world of crime amidst the cobbled streets of Paris...

I've already blogged about Pascal Tepper Bakery in Dubai Media City before [click here to read my previous post], so when I was asked if I'd like to meet the man behind the brand, I said yes. I already knew Chef Tepper was the recipient of the Meilleur Ouvrier de France...
