Who doesn’t love a good, hearty brunch? It’s not quite lunch, and is usually eaten after a long sleep in, so what’s not to enjoy? I think brunch is pretty much my favourite meal of the day at weekends and when travelling, so I’ve made it a mission to explore some of the best places […]
5 Good Reasons To Visit Krakow
January 24, 2012 by 4 Comments
Krakow is one cool city. I never really knew much about it before I visited last year, but now I can’t stop telling everyone I meet about how much I loved it. Not only is it cheap thanks to the Polish Zloty, but there’s so much to see, eat, drink and do that you’ll be […]
Drinking And Eating In Eastern Europe: 5 Treats You Must Try
August 2, 2011 by 17 Comments
Eastern Europe traditionally was not a huge tourist destination due to the conflicts it’s seen over the years, but now the region is really coming into its own – and more tourists than ever before are visiting. Travelling around Eastern Europe had always been high on my travel to do list, and last year I was lucky […]
Getting Lost In Melbourne’s Laneways
June 23, 2011 by 8 Comments
Being a native Melbournian people always ask what the main attractions are to see in the city – Sydney has the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, but what does Melbourne have? The truth is, when it comes to ‘famous’ attractions, Melbourne doesn’t have a huge amount…well, obvious ones anyway. But what I love about it is that it’s not […]

You don’t ask whats in a Squiggly, you just enjoy it. If you really wanted to know the nutritional content of this famous Delhi street food, then you probably shouldn’t be eating it…and for the record, it’s pretty much just flour, sugar and fat, but man, do they taste good! While we were only in Delhi for […]
The Best Of Las Vegas – Elvis Not Included
May 23, 2011 by 3 Comments
Money, food and sex – whatever the sin, Vegas has it in excessive quantities. A lot of people hate it, or think it’s tacky but for me, I love the place! Sure – it is tacky as hell, and if I stayed longer than a week I’d probably be tipped over the edge into alcoholism or wind up […]
Falling In Love With Bangkok Street Food
March 13, 2011 by 7 Comments
Salty, sweet, sour and spicy – Thai food is all about balance. The heat of the chilli released into the tart, freshly squeezed lime juice; the so-good-you-could-eat-a-whole-slab-of-it palm sugar dissolving slowly into a salty concoction of soy and fish sauces. And don’t get me started on the herbs! The chlorophyll-stuffed stems of coriander, Thai […]
The 10 best London lunches under £10 (almost)
February 21, 2011 by 11 Comments
You don’t believe it, do you? It’s OK, I didn’t used to either, and when I moved here 5 years ago I don’t think I’d ever heard the words ‘London’ and ‘good value’ uttered in the same sentence. And not only that, everyone I spoke to seemed to say the same thing – that London […]
