    Place Sainte-Catherine 50, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgium I totally dig Croquettes and I totally dig shrimp. So when I read online about Noordzee Mer du Nord and their shrimp croquettes I knew I’d be taking a trip there. First off their menu goes far beyond shrimp croquettes and it seems everyone loves them as they were…

    874 State St New Haven, CT 06511 So we all know pizza comes from Italy, more specifically Napoli. But here in America we have some well known pizza hubs, New York City (and for whatever reason) Chicago deep dish. But if you’ve watched any travel channel or any cooking channels (and I assume if you…

    29 Ceres St Portsmouth, NH 03801 I was in Portsmouth, New Hampshire for New Years Eve 2017/2018 for L’s first New Years. It was my first time in Portsmouth and I headed to The Black Trumpet for an earlier dinner on a recommendation. I had the mezze plate special which was delish. I then order…

    Back in 2013 I was in Cannes for the Cannes Film Festival. If you weren’t aware I work in Film and Television as well. Acting comes with some nice perks, like going to Cannes. As glamours as it may sound, the festival is long and the days can be grueling and hectic. Sometimes you just…

    Written in 2016 So Carlo is from Jersey. He got famous with his show The Cake Boss. He opened up a store front in Times Square New York City. The line is always really long. But today I had two hours to kill near Times Square and was in the mood for sweets. So I…

    I do a ton of research on a city before I go. I like to make sure I’m seeing the sites and eating the best food, planning the best travel routes to optimize time and have extra time for unexpected things that may come up. So as I did my research on places to eat…

    The fries were meh 43 Middle St, Portland, ME 04101 Totally not worth it. French fries and a milkshake $18+? No thanks also, I’ve had the fries in Copenhagen, Amsterdam, and Belgium and I need to say Duckfat, leave your Belgian fries to the Belgians please. I’d be totally okay if you became a milkshake…

    I am somewhat familiar to the man behind Meyers Bageri, Claus Meyer (who is also a founder of Copenhagen’s Michelin starred Noma), due again to Iceland. Meyer and Gunnar Gíslason, who is the chef behind Dill in Reykjavík, have partnered to bring the New Nordic food scene to New York City back in 2016. A…

    What’s the big deal with eventide? I tried the clam chowder it was more like clam soup and kind of tasted like I was drinking ocean water. The lobster stew was pretty good, had a nice broth to it, but not something I’d rush back there for. And the lobster roll? Well it was good.…

    Paella is regarded as the national dish of Spain and is THE dish to get while in Valencia. I have not had the chance to go to Valencia yet, but I have spent quite a bit of time in Barcelona. On my last trip, I had 5 nights in Barcelona and had paella every single…
