Sometimes, just every so often, I get these crazy ideas in my head… I’m sure you’re all a bit sick and tired of hearing what a wonderful time we all had at the Plate to Page workshop that took place all the way back in May (and wow, did you see where they are heading [...]

The sweat slowly starts to trickle down my back as we stand in line at the Orangery restaurant in Kensington Gardens. It’s one of those late summer hot days and the waiting line for the restaurant is in the middle of the terrace, in the scorching sun… I feel the sweat starting to go down [...]

The underground is warm and stuffy. People are huddled close and we can smell all cultures mingle together while more and more people get in and only a handful get out at the next station.

I have to admit that having been to Costa Rica once before, I didn’t really have high hopes to find an amazing cuisine or wonderful food. I wasn’t as much into food ten years ago as I am today, so I still had the slight hope that maybe I remember wrongly or maybe I hadn’t [...]

Back from the jungle (but still in Costa Rica) of Corcovado… We stayed for three days in la leona eco lodge while half of the group went for à three day hike into the deeper jungle. We didn’t do that as the heat here is enormous and the rest of the group is roughly 20 [...]

Did i previously tell you that i honestly think that mosquitos must range among the worlds most useless and annoying creatures? Well now you know… I haven’t exactly counted my mosquito bites but i can assure you that they are plentiful and quite goodlooking. We are currently in Monteverde rainforest and while it is much [...]
