Pitango Gelato & Dolcezza: Two Favorite Spots for Gelato in DC
Dolcezza is well-known for its beautiful decorated locations and original flavors. Pitango Gelato’s flavors are more classic, but taste extremely pure, rich and delicious (I know, it’s a cliché, but their hazelnut gelato is to die for!). Both places make ‘gelato’, the Italian version of ice cream. It contains less fat and is churned differently […] Read more…
The London Plane: Rose Granola
For the past couple of weeks we explored Seattle and Portland, not so much sightseeing-wise but food-wise. We had lunch at The London Plane, which is not only a café, but also a bakery, patisserie, florist, and mini-delicatessen. They even sell tableware.

Copenhagen shopping & eating out

Both the wood-fired pizzas and antipasti are made right behind the bar. Love that. That’s why I prefer to sit at the bar, so I can watch […] Read more…

Foodie Shopping in London
When in London, visit a market. Although that goes for about any city in Europe, in London you really should visit one of these great food havens. And for the Ottolenghi fans amongst us: we’ve bought some spices and salt at one of his renowned restaurants. Read more…
Mexican Food in Arizona
Last week my family and I travelled through the rough landscape of Arizona. Outstanding! Even in the desert you can get decent food, just do your best and don’t settle too easily for fast food restaurants.
