Punctual Picks #2

A second Punctual Picks, again with five favourites found along my way…

Zymi

In Lausanne, the Zymi bakery has settled at Avenue de Rumine 8. Behind its ovens, Tina, a passionate Dane, works with sourdough bread. I have walked through its door several times. My big favourite is without hesitation the cinnamon rolls and cardamom rolls. While the first is a well-known cinnamon swirl, the second is a delicious discovery. Now, whenever the chance arises, I do not hesitate to treat myself there.

Awwway

One of my first encounters in the blogging world is my lovely, bubbly friend Valentine. A travel content creator, she runs a blog about Switzerland and travels around the world. I love her way of writing and the visuals she shares on her social networks. We share the same taste for indulgent brunches and the same passion for photography. Over the years, a beautiful friendship has grown. On a terrace, on a walk with her beautiful Dalmatian or over tea on her sofa, conversations never run dry. A reciprocity that honours me. To discover other fascinating blogs, head to my blogroll (in French).

Nora Hamzawi

Discovered on the show Quotidien on TMC, Nora Hamzawi is one of the comedians I admire most. Her columns on France Inter are a treat for the ears and the eyes. Whenever one of her appearances is scheduled on TV or radio, I never miss it. I have yet to discover her literary world, as the artist has more than one trick up her sleeve. My favourite: her column on diets, to devour below.

Maison Amarella

Who loves macarons? Me! I had the pleasure of receiving a pretty box from the artisan maker Maison Amarella. Based in the canton of Fribourg, the company offers tasty natural, gluten-free macarons. Its flavours are notably inspired by the Middle East, with rose, saffron or date. With several boxes to choose from, everyone is sure to find the treat they like. The company also makes brownies, already on my to eat list.

Lac des Joncs

Strolling in Switzerland and discovering forest gems is always a pleasure. One autumn, walking shoes on, I walked around Lac des Joncs. Located above Les Paccots, in the canton of Fribourg, it offers a lovely break in the heart of nature. Cows, trees and fields accompany the walk. A pretty chalet lets you enjoy a hot tea or a lemonade on the terrace. A soft spot for the little orange fish swimming at the bottom of the pond.
