For when we are past covid-19 and able to travel again, I thought I’d write about the best Seoul food markets I explored during my trip. Hopefully this post can help with any future South Korea travel planning! Seoul has some of the best food markets I’ve ever been to in the 40+ countries I’ve […]

Myeongdong Food Market, Seoul
My best travel memories are getting swept up in a bustling food market, sampling an endless selection of unfamiliar dishes. Exactly as planned, it’s what we did in South Korea 80% of the time. (We ran long distances almost every day during the 2-week trip, otherwise I would have most certainly landed back in London […]
Seafood at L’Altro Baffo, Otranto
You may have already guessed by now that my partner and I are completely food obsessed. Especially when travelling around Italy. It has to be one of the best places to travel in the world for food. Or perhaps very close behind Bangkok’s street food. Most of the dining we did in Puglia was either […]
One Day in Ostuni
Our next stop in Puglia, after the incredible lunch at Masseria il Frantoio, was probably my favourite part of the trip: Ostuni, The White City. It’s famous for bright whitewashed walls – extra bedazzling in the Italian sun – dotted with coloured doors, green cacti and potted plants. It’s really one of the prettiest little towns I’ve ever […]
Masseria il Frantoio Lunch Experience
So you’ve heard about Monopoli and Polignano a Mare, where we basically spent our days hopping between restaurants and cafes (with a couple of beaches thrown in). Little did we know, the most extravagant meal we’d have would be at Masseria il Frantoio. I’ve really been looking forward to writing this food post, and sharing […]
The Best of Monopoli, Puglia
My latest travel adventures took me to Monopoli in Puglia, a region in Southern Italy with overwhelming beauty. Coming here is the ultimate escape from the tourist masses. The whole of Puglia is incredibly laid back, where time gratefully slows down and you can instantly feel your body relax. But to be honest, if there’s one reason to come […]
Lima Restaurant, London
If you’re looking for a London restaurant to go to for a special occasion, then Lima restaurant in Fitzrovia could be the perfect choice. I came here with my family after reading great reviews of the creative menu. Also because Lima is the first and only Michelin starred Peruvian restaurant in London. I was eager to see what […]
Restaurant 100 Maneiras, Lisbon
The Tasting Menu at restaurant 100 Maneiras is truly something special. Since this intimate restaurant at Bairro Alto in Lisbon has no menu, you’re welcomed to experience a succession of 10 exquisite and delightfully surprising dishes from chef Ljubomir Stanic. It’s worth opting for the wine pairing too (plus it doesn’t hurt that it’ll be served by a very charming sommelier) […]
Time Out Mercado da Ribeira
As promised in my last 48 Hours in Lisbon post, this one is dedicated to my brunch feast at one of Lisbon’s best food markets, Time Out Mercado da Ribeira. Bringing together some of the city’s most revered names in food and drink, the former fish market is now home to a selection of popular vendors as […]
Formula One Grand Prix Weekend, Abu Dhabi
With much excitement and buzz, the final round of the 2015 Formula One Grand Prix season took place here in Abu Dhabi. The races took place on Yas Island in the impressive, purpose-built Yas Marina Circuit – complete with waterfront views, luxury yachts and the spectacular Viceroy Hotel wrapped around it’s sharp bends. It’s a big occasion […]
