Scandal related to Kamil Durczok

Have you heard about .... Kamil Durczok?

A couple of weeks ago when I read the news, that many journalists TVN submit successives comlaints, I didn't associate the case with Durczok...But  Investigation developed... ''Wprost'' published an article who accuses unanimously Durczor for sexual harassement. I was shocked. I was waiting for the response of the accused. But, the suspect holed up in his house and doesn't comment significantly accusations.

You think Durczok return to the program?

Finally...
Oscar for polish cinema... :)

But it's not just next prize for Poland, next prize for this film. Many polish cinema's authorities consider that recent Oscar win for best foreign language film for Ida is a symbol of polish cinematography's renaissance.
During the last decad more films are produced, more and more people go to the cinema to see polish movies.

It's an important info, I hope that it's not just temporary change. I always try to keep up with novelty in polish cinema, Smarzowski, Szumowska or Komasa. But..about them...next post!

Ida is what about?

The film tells the story of a young orphaned woman, Ida, who is on the verge of taking vows to be a nun in the early 1960s when she discovers that she is Jewish and that her parents were murdered by a Polish peasant during World War II.


You saw it?

Eating for exams!

Eating for exams!

This title is taken from article read on BBC. The exams are nearer and nearer. In the past, particularly I remember my first session. It was so stressful. I was sitting at the desk till 3 am. I was drinking another cup of coffee or energeticist. After couple of days I was a wreck. Over time I learned that it's not good way, especially for my body and mind also. I'm the type of person who likes to sleep, otherwise I'm nervous. Now, I try to sleep at least 7 hours, this also applies to the time of exams. I drink Yerba Mate and eat nuts. :)
A few days ago I came across nice article.  It presents some useful advices during exams. 10 top products for four brain: wholegrains, oily fish, blueberries, tomatoes, pumpkin seeds, broccoli, sage and nuts.

The Hundred-Foot Journey


....
Another film I ve'seen during the holidays is The Hundred-Foot Journey. It's a little in similar topic as the previous film. Cultural differences and transcultural understanding... I think it's great family movie solution. Idealistic, but very funny and pleasant. For me, it was important that Helen Mirren played the main role, wonderful actress with so many faces. Besides, theme of the kitchen is always attracting, so it was a lot of fun watching this film.

Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu?

Hi,

Happy new year!

During the holidays, I always forget about such mundane matters as the blog. :)
I was eating, resting and watching movies! Today I would recommend you one.
If you haven't seen it, you have to do it soon.

I'm talking about : ''Serial (Bad) Weddings'' ( french: ''Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu?'' ).

Firstly, film gained enormous fame in France. The film attracted over 200,000 viewers just on the first day! In France...ok, in other European countries also, but there's one problem. UK doesn't belong to them. To say nothing about USA...The film has been rejected by film distributors (american and british) who deem it politically incorrect and possibly racist!


I've watched it and I can say that I don't see there nothing extreme. But, maybe you have a different opinion? Watch and tell me.

interview

There is a fragment of interwiev with W.M. Amaro. Seems to me very intriguing. Maybe you want to read?


Describe your culinary philosophy in 5 words...
Nature, science, seasonality, creativity, honesty

How did you feel when you were awarded your first Michelin star?

It was a dream come true, after 22 years of working in the kitchen, as well as being a historical moment, as it was Poland's first Michelin star. Most importantly, Polish cuisine joined the family of great cuisines around the world and a new era was begun for Polish chefs...

What is your greatest insipiration?
Naturs in my major inspiration. I go foraging, hunting and fishing, as they allow me to have my mind and senses open to absorb as much as possible - I call it the art of observing nature. My food tells the whole story about what I observe.

What three things would you take to a desert island?
Knife, a fishing rod and a Bible
