I just started a new job in an area which is completely new territory for me: Strand. So of course, the first thing I did on Day One was to ask my colleague, a self-proclaimed coffee snob from Sydney, where his favourite coffee spot was.

He gave me a few tips and I star...

I’m one of those people who tend to get sick when I’m the most relaxed. Hence after having spent two weeks in my home country Sweden filled with nature strolls, meatballs and hour long 'fika' breaks (coffee + cinnamon bun + chat), a horrible cold hit me as the plane de...

New York City has a far from modest food culture. The New Yorkers’ love of cheese is showcased in crazy combos such as mac & cheese with lobster, and raclette cheese melted onto ‘hot dawgs’.

Mon Plaisir claims to be London’s oldest French restaurant.

You will find this busy yet intimate French bistro on Monmouth Street in London’s buzzing Covent Garden district. There is no doubt in my mind - or taste buds - that this gem serves the finest French cuisine pa...

I was lured in by a sign saying “Depresso: That feeling you get when you've run out of coffee.”

Desperate to cure my state of depresso I headed inside.
