miss alsace & 2nd runner up of miss france
At 24 years old and in her sixth year of pharmacy, Cécile Wolfrom is taking a break from her studies in order to fulfill her missions as Miss Alsace and second runner-up of Miss France! Her ambition is to create her own cosmetics brand and she has already passed the entrance exams for Essec in order to obtain a double doctorate in pharmacy and business school. Originally from Strasbourg, active and creative, she is passionate about tennis, piano and skiing, and says she is a “very good taster” when it comes to good food!
1. A good local dish
The tarte flambée au gratin without hesitation! The normal one is still delicious but it’s not enough for a foodie like me.
2. A VILLAGE TO VISIT IN SPRING
A village which for me is to be visited all the time: Kaysersberg
3. THE BEST LAMMELE
My grandmother’s, she is an exceptional cook! Otherwise, the Stein pastry shop in Strasbourg.
4. A SPRING SPECIALITY
The rhubarb meringue pie or the cottage cheese pie, it’s hard to choose!
5. YOUR FAVORITE GRAPE VARIETY
Riesling because I like very dry wines. It’s just right for me!
6. A STORE OR MARKET TO EAT LOCALLY
The Burestubel in Pfulgrisheim for the best flammekueches! And the Christmas market in Strasbourg remains a must in winter. I count the days every year!
7. AN ATMOSPHERE OR A PLACE TO DISCOVER
I invite anyone to discover the famous wine fair in Colmar, the Wine Route and Riquewihr which is an absolutely splendid village. (Yes, I am indeed a wine lover!)
8. FAST FOOD OR CATERING, A TAKE-AWAY MENU
The Maison Klein in Strasbourg for its childhood taste.
9. AN ACTIVITY IN THE REGION
The hike to the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle, for the pleasure of admiring the breathtaking view…
10. A TASTE OF CHILDHOOD
My grandmother’s mirabelle plum pie, or her potato pancakes. She cooks so well that I couldn’t choose!
11. YOUR BEST GOURMET EXPERIENCE
The Dampfnudels with leek soup from Gilles Leininger, they are incredible!
12. A DISH YOU LIKE TO COOK
Fleischnakas, with my mom, or good home-made Spaetzles.
13. A PLACE TO RELAX ON WEEKENDS
A walk in the Orangery Park in Strasbourg, or simply through the vineyards on a sunny Sunday, what a pleasure!
14. “THE PLACE TO BE IN THE SUN
On the roof of the cathedral. Although, considering the number of steps, it’s worth it!
