Today I will share with you the perfect recipe for a quick, healthy, and satisfying sweet treat: Caramelised Pineapple.
Fakarava
Today I am back with the last post on our recent Tahitian holiday and I am going to take you all the magnificent island of Fakarava, in the Tuamotu Archipelago.
Blue Lagoon – Rangiroa
During our recent stay in French Polynesia, we visited the Tuamotu Islands. Rangiroa is one of these islands and we spent 5 days at Hotel Kia Ora Resort and Spa. The island of Rangiroa is famous for its Blue Lagoon, which is an absolutely amazing place! Read on to see photos and read about our…
Rangiroa
If you follow Manu’s Menu, you will probably know that my family and I recently visited French Polynesia. We loved it, so I thought of sharing a few more details about the islands we visited and the hotels we stayed at, in the event that any of my readers may be interested in visiting this…

Papaya Jam
I have a confession to make: my fridge is full of little home-made jam jars like this Papaya Jam. In fact, I like to have different jams available at all times, especially for breakfast. I don’t eat much of it, but I like to have options.
Tahitian Mango Jam
During our recent stay in the islands of Tahiti, we have had plenty of delicious locally made jam. The main flavours were pineapple (always a favourite of mine), guava, some of kind of citrus like lime or grapefruit, and mango. Well, we even had an amazing coconut jam that I will have to try and…
Pineapple Vanilla Jam
The first time I had this delicious Pineapple Vanilla Jam I was in Tahiti. The islands abound in both pineapples and vanilla, so to them is a normal combination. However, to my Italian taste buds it wasn’t and I was literally blown away but how good these two flavours were together! This jam has become…
Passion fruit Béarnaise Sauce
This month, the Daring Cooks got a little saucy! Jenni from the Gingered Whisk taught us the basics of how to make the five mother-sauces and encouraged us to get creative with them, creating a wide variety of delicious, fresh sauces in our very own kitchens. I was really thrilled by this challenge! I make some sauces…
Royal Tahiti
I am so excited about today’s post: Royal Tahiti! A little over 1 year ago, my family and I were enjoying the sun and turquoise sea of French Polynesia. The best sea in the world if you ask me!
Verrine Fraicheur
Today’s dish is a very quick recipe. Going through my Visual Archive, I have realised that I do not have many breakfast recipes on the blog. I guess the main reason is because Italians are not big on breakfast. In fact, we mostly have coffee (or cappuccino) and a croissant or cookies. I personally just…
Fish Fillet with Tahitian Vanilla Sauce
Today’s recipe may sound highly unusual, but it really isn’t. When we visited Tahiti a few months ago, “fish with vanilla sauce” was on every restaurant’s menu and once we tried it, it wasn’t hard to understand why. It is an amazing combination and one of the tastiest ways to eat fish. Obviously, people in Tahiti…
MAI TAI
During my stay at the Hilton Bora Bora Nui Resort & Spa, I took part in their “cocktail class”, during which the bartender showed us how to make their signature drink: Mai Tai and I am here to share it with you all! Apparently, even though this cocktail has become famous as a Polynesian classic, it…
HILTON BORA BORA NUI RESORT & SPA, BORA BORA
Today I want to share with you my review of the hotel we stayed in in Bora Bora during our recent holiday in French Polynesia. If you have read my travel diary, you will know that visiting Bora Bora had been a dream of mine for a long time, so I immediately knew it HAD…
PINEAPPLE AND PASSION FRUIT JAM
If you follow Manu’s Menu, you already know that my family and I have recently returned from a holiday in French Polynesia (Tahiti). Both in my travel diary and in my review of Hilton Moorea, I have told you about the amazing jam we tasted while we were there. Moorea actually has some of the…
HILTON MOOREA LAGOON RESORT & SPA, MOOREA
Today I want to share with you my review of the hotel we stayed in in Moorea during our recent holiday in French Polynesia. If you have read my travel diary, you will know that we LOVED Moorea. The island is beautiful and it has much more than just the amazing sea to offer. …
FIRI FIRI
I am very excited about today’s recipe. During our recent holiday in French Polynesia (Tahiti), we ate some amazing food and we literally fell in love with these doughnut-like sweets. We first bought them at the Papeete Markets and we had no idea that they would become our staple for breakfast during the following 2…
