You’ve probably never heard someone tell you “I’m going on vacation to Belgium” – fair enough! But we often hear about Brussels when the European Commission has a big summit.
I am so behind with my blog posts and I have so many great restaurants I would like to share with you. Summer has absolutely flown by in the blink of an eye! I tried Damas during a visit to Montreal during Labor Day weekend. I still remember how we all left the restaurant so full we could hardly walk: it was quite funny!
On my recent trip to Peru, I was spending only one night in Lima, Peru. As a result, I was determined to find a rare gem and to finally discover what makes Lima’s cuisine so famous and sought-after. Sadly, I wasn’t able to make a reservation at one of the world’s 50 best restaurants.
I went to Orchidea a while ago and I was debating whether or not to blog on it as it’s a bit outside the beaten track – in Guadeloupe. Since then I’ve added a “Travel” page to my blog so I thought I’d share with you my experience.
I have neglected my fellow Belgians and I apologize for that. It’s not because of the lack of excellent restaurants and chefs in the country, but rather a lack of time on my side.
This is a trip I’ve been meaning to share with you for a while; sorry it took so much time to come up with my blog post! Guatemala is a beautiful country and hosts some fantastic treasures. It has so many interesting and wonderful sites to visit. Guatemala is somewhat overshadowed by Mexico, which people often choose as their vacation destination, but precisely for that reason it has not been spoiled by too many tourists and stays authentic.
It took 25 years of marriage to finally travel to the region where my husband spent his childhood vacations: Hossegor. Not that I didn’t like it, or I thought it wasn’t interesting…and it was certainly not because I wanted to make him unhappy. Do I look like I’m a bad wife? But after hearing the same story over and over again, I felt like I myself spent my own vacations there.
Oh-my-word! This restaurant is mind-blowing! I was not expecting this level of creativity and inventiveness, not only in terms of presentation and conceptualization of the dishes but also in their eye-popping tastes and flavors. It’s one WOW after another. It’s worth it (or almost) to get on a plane to Bangkok for just a night, brave the jet lag, just to try Gaggan!
Damnoen Saduak floating market is without any doubt the largest and most famous floating market in Thailand.
Located 100 miles south of Bangkok, the market is open everyday from 6 am to 11 am.
There are more than 100 vendors selling fruits and vegetables to tourists and locals, floating in their small canoes along the canal.
