Some images from Peter Luger, probably the best traditional American steakhouse I’ve ever been… (and no, this trip to NY had nothing to do with diet!)

Forget about artisanal pizzas from fancy, unconventional ingredients. What I look forward mostly whenever I go to New York is the New York style pizza with a crust so thin, and crispy on the sides that you have to fold it in order to eat it without making a mess.…

I’ve written about Frantzén restaurant (at that time- Frantzén/Lindeberg) one year ago, so I won’t elaborate on it too much, but for me Björn Frantzén is one of those chefs who have a natural talent to think outside of the box without trying to change the world. And when I think…

As an American cartoonist Charles M. Shulz once said, “all you need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt”. I don’t know another city in the world, where you will find so many exceptional chocolate shops as in Paris. Here are some of my favourites (my…

This freshly baked bread with sage, rosemary and sweet potatoes served on every table at the Nomad could be a dish by itself… Yes, it’s that good.

And that’s where lays the secret of the long queues (no reservations)…

My favourite burger from Le Camion qui fume food truck, driving around Paris, has some serious competition. The burger at the recently opened, simple and affordable Café Trama (83 Rue du Cherche-Midi, 75006 Paris; tel. +331 45 48 33 71) is served only on Saturdays and I, unfortunately, forgot to…

Professional chefs are known for not having much life outside of their kitchens. It’s a difficult job, not only physically, but also emotionally, often becoming your whole life and vice versa. Hedone’s chef Mikael Jonsson brings his passion for the art of the gastronomy to a whole new level. I…
