Da Noi Trattoria Ristorante

Hello everyone, today I’m going to talk about a place I like to go to eat. First of all I love going out to eat with my family, girlfriend or friends as well as cooking at home. My favorite food is Italian food I love gnocchi, lasagna, cannelloni, fettuccine, the different rooms to go with pasta, etc. To eat the best Italian food in Santiago and at a very good price I recommend "Da Noi Trattoria Ristorante", this restaurant is located at Av Italia 1791, commune of Ñuñoa. This restaurant has a friendly family atmosphere, people can go as a couple, with children or just with friends, it is nice for everyone. It has a varied menu where you can find salads, meats and desserts, without mentioning its extensive variety of homemade pasta that are prepared at the site. You also have the possibility of buying food to go and from Monday to Friday at lunchtime they prepare collations. If you have the opportunity to eat at Da Noi I suggest you try the "Trietto Da Noi". This dish is composed of a bolognese lasagna, ravioli stuffed with ricotta with provencal sauce and fettuccine with alfredo sauce. this place is very popular so if you want to go is good to make a reservation.

Alex Trochut

Hello everyone, today I’m going to write about a famous person that I would like to meet, he is Alex Trochut. He is a Catalan graphic designer of our time, he has worked for very important brands like Nike, Adidas, Estrella Damm, Absolut Vodka and many others. He varies the working methodology in each of their projects. Alex Trochut knows how combine the knowledge that he received in the design school Elisava with his own techniques that has managed to develop with a very own personal style. His works are based on the illustration and typography, but in an interview he said that he was not a typographer. The taste for typefaces comes from his grandfather Joan Trochut, he was a typographer. For my, Alex Trochut is a constant inspiration, his designs are vibrant, full of very spectacular shapes and colors, he is my favorite designer. We also share some influences like Herb Lubalin or Milton Glaser. I think it would be great to share a cup of coffee and talk about our influences in graphic design, the methodology that has Alex Trochut when faced with a new project, it would be an honor for me to work in a collaborative project and to have the opportunity to learn from him. 

Next I leave some of his brilliant work.

The Tate Modern Art Gallery

Hello English classmates today I'm going to write about a place I learned doing the London Webquest. I chose The Tate Modern Art Gallery, its address is Bankside, London SE1 9TG, United Kingdom and to get to the Tate Modern in the fastest way is to use the London Underground. The nearest station is Southwark on the Jubilee Line, is approximately 600 meters from the Tate Modern. The entrance is free for all visitors except some special exhibitions, at the Tate Modern you can do many different things such as play games, watch films and read about art in their interactive areas, or sketch in the gallery. You can also take three types of tours, these are a special tour for two, a private tour for a group or free daily guided tour. Besides you can visit exhibitions, see films, go to conferences and talks. I think if you have the opportunity to visit London you can’t miss the chance to visit one of the most incredible museums in the world.
