Later on, at the bar downstairs: UsaKousa with Carola, in her beautiful santa clause red coat.

Saturday, 8 December: a big Italian dinner at Paganini, with Heinz and his friends from Berlin, Zürich, Tel Aviv and New York.

Our mixed salad & seafood salad. And yes, you can still smoke in restaurants until the end of the year.

And at the catalogue of the US/Swiss artist, David Chieppo (with many thanks to Galerie Brigitte Weiss.)

Monday, 10 December: Hubi treats us to an oyster breakfast at KaDeWe again - a mixed plate of 7 different oysters, and a big glass of Sancerre each.

The ones from Normandy are so delicious, we have to order another plate of them - and a small Sancerre again. Thank you, Hubi :-)
