Culinary

Read about our authentic culinary exploits around the world, from veggie restaurant reviews to whisky tastings.

As vegetarians and backpackers, we often spend time on food markets discovering real-life local food. In many countries, cheap street food is vegetarian anyway! But we don’t mind taking photos of meat and meat dishes. And of course we also try out typical local restaurants.

We also like coffee, so you will find a number of culinary blog articles about coffee in the Drink sub-menu. During our travels, we like to visit beer breweries and whisky distilleries. Thus, we often write on the travel blog about those tours and tastings. By contrast, the restaurant reviews are mostly from Berlin and Germany.
