Oct 20 culinary paradise: Georgia

TRAVEL, FOOD

When people asked us why do we want to travel to Georgia so much, one of our answers was: the food. True, Georgian cuisine might not be very known to the rest of the world but in Poland you can get it quite a lot and boy, is it good! So no, it wan’t the first time for us trying Georgian food but the truth is, none of our previous experiences can even compare to what we’ve had a chance to taste during our trip.

Apr 6 our favourite random finds that make our trips so special

So this is the way we travel - we wander. Prior to our trip I of course plan a bit ahead, prepare a Google map with some landmarks to see, or particular spots I would like to pass by, some restaurant recommendations I have… but the principal is just to walk around and see where we get.

Feb 24 in search of the best taco in Mexico City

TRAVEL, FOOD

When I first learned that we’ll have an opportunity to spend 1 day in Mexico City on our way back from Cuba, I obviously got the most excited about finally trying the real-deal Mexican food (sic!).

Jul 5 detox done right: coconut-banana pancakes

FOOD

Some of you may know but I like to set myself a little challenge few times a year and go on a full-on detox. Don't get me wrong, I do my best to eat clean every single day but for these few weeks I tighten the rules significantly.

Jun 19 summertime bliss: garden barbecue and family time in Poland

Don't tell me that global warming does not exist when it is now over 30°C in Poland and barely 18°C in France. Last weekend I was wearing a winter sweater here in Paris and let me remind you - we're approaching end of June. Are we?!

Because it’s no news that spending quality time with our loved ones is the best we could ever wish for. Add a bit of travel and a table covered with good food and you’ll have at least two happy faces looking at you...

Oct 1 hello fall!

It's really hard to get excited about fall, especially in Paris with its never-ending rain, grey sky, and low temperatures. There's something however, that I'm really looking forward to thinking of this time of the year...

Sep 24 culinary paradise: Japan

I don't think anybody is surprised anymore that food was one one of, if not the main focus during our trip to Japan. We wanted to try everything and definitely did not cut back on our dining budget. It doesn't mean we dined fancy - not at all most of the time, but we surely got the munching on.

Jul 27 summer feast in Paris

FOOD

Paris can be quite surprising when it comes to weather, in contrary to many people's belief that the city of love = the city of sun. After weeks of rain and harsh witner in the middle of May, July didn't really bring the summer bliss for long but guaranteed at least a few sunny days. So the time to munch on a baguette along Canal Saint-Martin with a glass of rose came. Or actually, the time to munch on anything, wherever and with a glass of whatever just to be outside and enjoy the sun... Here's a few of our favourite summer restaurants.

Jul 21 good morning sunshine: Hubert the dog & mini peach cobblers

I don't need to mention once again how special weekend mornings are for us: lazy time spent on just enjoying the time together. And last weekend it was the three of us since Hubert the dog joined us for the few sunny days! This charming little love ball only made us want to get one of our own pretty soon...

Jun 26 early sunday date with cocoa waffles

FOOD

You can enjoy a late night date with a bottle of wine and candlelights and I don't say we don't, but there is something so special about the long lazy morning in bed with a plate full of chocolate.

Jun 16 culinary paradise: Florence

TRAVEL, FOOD

There are so many reasons to fall in love with Italy: wonderful weather, gorgous landscapes, ancient monuments... but whatever you say, I say food should always be on the top of the list. Florence gave us more than many opportunities to dig into the best of Italian cuisine: pizza, pasta, the tastiest meat and seafood... We did it all. And you should too.
