Very happy about this. 🌟 🌟 🌟 #Michelin #RoadToTheTable #VautLeVoyage

Une des meilleures tables, vaut le voyage ⭐️⭐️⭐️

The definitive cultural history of Michelin (the guide, the tire, the rarefied restaurant) coming from the brilliant @ninacaplan @BloomsburyPub @AevitasCreative!

So @Wix is going to start charging me 10% more for AI I actively dislike and want no part of. No option to just opt out. Any recommendations for better platforms that won’t do this? @squarespace maybe?

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

In case anyone wonders how this panned out: a meaningless logged complaint and a suggestion that the seller claim on insurance. Mistakes happen but the lying bugs me: they invented a safe place that doesn’t exist, and left a valuable parcel outside my front door.

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

Well done @RoyalMail - agreed you’d delay my delivery as I requested, sent email confirmation , and instead have dumped it on my doorstep claiming that’s my nominated safe place - it is no such thing. Chaotic and dishonest.

@chsingthedragon @UPS_UK I’m still waiting for resolution. Was told it would arrive by 7pm last night, it didn’t.

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

I’m actually going to start specifying to companies that if they use @UPS_UK I won’t buy from them. The service is just so bad…

If anyone who follows me here is on Bluesky, I’m now dabbling there…

@shattenstone Great interview Simon. And good to hear he has hopes and plans.

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

@IanDunt That’s a good tip and I will pass it on, thank you. (Sorry so slow, I’m not on here as much any more)

@ninacaplan finds there's much to toast in new film Widow Clicquot, but her inner wine geek feels it's missing some key parts of the story

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

@IanDunt What did you change it to? I know someone who might find this information useful…

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

@SigneSJohansen Commiserations!!

[Nina Caplan @ninacaplan]

@lickedspoon Non. Never. I have just made a phone call, been told the restaurant is closed the night I want to come, pointed out that it isn’t, been told to email my request, then waited 2 days for confirmation of my reservation. The customer is always wrong.

Really proud of being part of this @ninacaplan story.

“It was his ancestor Josep Raventós Fatjó who, in 1872, after a trip to Champagne, decided to create a sparkling wine".
