Just some of the many highlights of San Sebastián. Pintxos rule. Amazing bar staff, friendly people. On to our next adventure @djsgoodlife . #holiday #sansebastian #foodietravel #pintxos #wine #beers #cider #fun
This #InternationalCoffeeDay join me and @djsgoodlife as we explore Europe`s coffee scene.
📷1: Brunch was all types of delicacies from the Mercado do Bolhão followed by coffee, of course!
📷2: After a stunning tasting and tour @sandemanporto and fabulous lunch at Sandeman Seixi restaurant with @vascocoelhosantos
📷3: On the @culinarybackstreets tour in Lisbon at Mercato da Ribeira. Spot the traditional Portuguese tart - have you tried one?
📷4: A coffee hit in Porto just before going on a Free Walking Tour (pay at the end according to satisfaction)
📷5: Sintra at Quijadas da Sapa has been making these little tarts since 1756 in their cafe! Like the traditional Portuguese tart invented by a nun but slightly different, which are named after the shop. These tarts have a very thin crust and are made from cheese and cinnamon.
However, note, like many other places in Europe beware of ordering a coffee with milk as it is often long life milk and I can taste it!
A very special birthday dinner @arzakrestaurant with @djsgoodlife so many years after meeting @elenaarzak in Melbourne. A long held wish to dine there satisfied with exceptional attention to detail, delicious food, fabulous wine list, outstanding staff all happy in their roles. Well deserved 3 Michelin stars. Elegant but warm. Unforgettable and so generous. #birthday #arzak #food #wine #dining #restaurant #michelin3stars #michelinpower #foodietravel
This #TourismDay I would like to share some wonderful reviews from my Puglia Culinary trip from Jane and Merrie.
Making my guests happy is what I find most rewarding about a trip, being able to help and provide them with new experiences, sights and flavours.
From visiting small, local producers to wine tasting, burrata making and tasting at a local dairy farm to travelling around Lecce and the White City of Ostuni.
Whether you want to travel solo, as a couple or with a group, there’s something here for everyone on my 2025 culinary trip.

Did you know that blood oranges are sweeter now mid-season with good colour right to the centre?🍊
They’re also great for making making syrups, cordials, curds and not too late to dehydrate to zap up your drinks way after the end of the season.
Make the most of the short blood orange season by whipping up this blood orange crostata. The buttery, sweet pastry case is the perfect vehicle for the floral citrus notes of the oranges and can be easily whizzed up in a food processor. Link in bio for the full recipe.

Why can’t I taste my spices? There are several reasons why this might be, so make sure to consider:
- How are you storing your spices?
- Are your spices out of date?
- Are you buying quality spices?
- Are you adding enough spice during cooking?
- Do you need to toast your spices or give them enough time to let the spices bloom?
I hope these tips will help improve the taste of your cooking. Comment SPICE below to learn more about my Just Add Spice recipe book.

Come make focaccia from scratch, sail the Adriatic Sea and eat the freshest seafood with me in 2025.
I invite you on my culinary tour around the captivating, off-the-beaten-track regions of Puglia and Basilicata, Italy.
Spend an unforgettable week in Puglia, the sun-drenched heel of the boot that spans two seas, the Adriatic and the Ionian. With over 50 million olive trees and a tradition of wine growing that has seen a fabulous dynamism in the last ten years, this area produces some incredibly exciting wines as well as amazing food.
Avoid the chaos of Rome, the tourists of Tuscany and join me on a journey through flavours, culture and culinary traditions.
