Le Méridien Le Scoop Gelato Bowls
Channel the South of France lifestyle with these porcelain Le Scoop Gelato Bowls. This two-bowl set is available in two designs — La Pergola, with simple blue stripes, and La Passeggiata, featuring figures taking a post-dinner stroll along the promenade.
French-born artist Marie Doazan created these dessert bowls to celebrate the simple joys of European living (and a bite of something deliciously sweet).
Marriott Cold Brew Tower
Coffee fans will rejoice at this Cold Brew Tower, which turns out premium gourmet coffee beverages in immaculate fashion. The tower is now used in some hotels’ M Clubs to create a flawless Slumbershot: a “nightcap” that helps you relax at day’s end.
The tower’s wood frame holds two chambers and a spiral glass drip siphon that allows a slow 8-to-12-hour brew process, as well as the ability to infuse flavors into a drink. Even the biggest coffee guru will be impressed.
