From Korean fried chicken to bbq and Shabu, lots of the food in Korea includes meat. Although it is absolutely delicious, after traveling so much the past three months and really eating meat almost every day I have completely lost my appetite for it now being back home haha. Regardless, I really enjoyed the food during my two weeks in South Korea. Lots of flavors and different foods to try out, make Korean a great cuisine. Also, Seoul has a coffee shop pretty much at every corner, meaning you have lots of locations to try from. This is ideal since you can also go somewhere new for your morning coffee. Two of my favorite places included cafe onion and warm braun.

Food food food! This is probably how my mind functions most of the time haha. I love good food and I love to think about good food, especially when I am on the chair lift after finishing a good run down the slopes. We were staying in Campitello di Fassa, a small village in the Dolomites, and it had some great food spots to offer (on the mountain and in the valley). I of course had to have the burrata pizza when I saw it on the menu, and I can tell you I enjoyed it very much. Nothing beats a good Italian pizza with fresh ham, tomatoes, basil and a burrata on top. For good pizza I can recommend Restaurant Tobia and La Stella di Nonno. The latter also has really homemade great pasta and aperol spritz!

Skiing in Italy also means making sure you get that cappuccino. Sitting on the sun deck and having your morning coffee (never have cappuccino after lunch!) while enjoying the view of the mountains is unbeatable. For lunch you can then stop by one of the huts and go for some pasta or like us a classic Austrian mountain meal. This is usually made up of fries, schnitzel, beer, more aperol spritz and kaiserschmarren. These are also some of my favorite meals ahah and I ate all of them during the one week ski trip. 🙂

This might have been the best dinner I have ever had. I was very lucky to be invited to this lovely evening, dine on the 10th floor of the Water Tower in Utrecht and explore the city at night. We had a 4 course menu with the wine pairing along with some freshly toasted bread and home made cream cheese. The meals incorporated new flavor combinations, as well as being very flavorful 🙂 and of course they looked very good. Really great experience!

Usually you would associate a tasting with wine but here at Kompaan Beer you get to do it with kraft beer. You get a selection of six different IPAs to try and of course you can order very good snacks on the side. Maybe not the healthiest snacks but sometimes enjoying some loaded nachos is right what you need. The place is right by the water in the industrial area of The Hague. If you are looking for a good afternoon activity, this is your place to be!

I discovered this place last March when I was in the mood for pizza one night. Ever since then I have been telling all my friends to go here and often go here myself. Even though it can be a bit more expensive this pizza Mammamia place is totally worth it. My go to is usually the burrata pizza, because you know me, I very much love burrata.

There’s no better way to celebrate the cafes and restaurants opening again than by going on a wine date. Luckily, my lovely friend Noor is as much of a wine date lover as me so despite our hurting bank accounts, we decided to go out for a fun afternoon. The place we went to is called Boozy Wine & Food. They have really nice snacks and wine selections, so I would highly recommend going here if you are in The Hague!

If you know me then you know that I love love getting coffee somewhere. Especially on weekends (when there is free parking in town!!) I always go to probably the best place in The Hague Single Estate Coffee Roasters. You can find me there at least once a week and it’s at the point that my phone even gives me the directions to the cafe like this morning. I always go for the iced lattes with either beans from Costa Rica or Kenya but because its getting colder I’m starting to get more warm drinks. I don’t love warm lattes so I’ll usually get a chai instead. You can get really good chai at House of Tribes and get it with oat milk. It’s much better and creamier. These colorful drinks we had at Secret Garden Bakery. The different colored lattes are really fun and pretty but I think they are too sweet for me and I’ll stick to my iced latte ahah.
