Valladolid may be small, but its food scene has more character than we expected. Traditional Maya cooking, Yucatecan craft beer, tropical gelato and some surprisingly good vegetarian restaurants all sit within walking distance of the colourful historic centre. We only had a handful of places we really wanted to recommend, but each of them brought…
Amsterdam has one of the most diverse food scenes in the Netherlands, and there is always somewhere new worth discovering. Between creative neighbourhood restaurants, natural wine, excellent specialty coffee and a bakery scene that seems to get better every year, the city has plenty to keep food lovers busy. These are the restaurants, cafés and…
Constantia feels remarkably removed from Cape Town, even though the city is only a short drive away. As one of South Africa’s most historic wine regions, the valley combines old estates and established winemaking traditions with beautiful tasting rooms, restaurants and mountain views. We spent a few days exploring the area and these are the…
Berlin is one of those cities where the food scene feels almost impossible to keep up with. Every neighbourhood has its own character, and the variety is huge — from serious bakeries and specialty coffee to handmade noodles, plant-based restaurants and one of the most unusual Michelin experiences we’ve had. These are the places that…
Paris is a city where we can easily plan an entire day around what we want to eat next. Over several visits, we’ve collected a mix of places that reflect what we enjoy most: ambitious but relaxed restaurants, serious specialty coffee, wine bars with personality and a pastry scene that is almost impossible to resist.…

Its food scene moves easily between modern bakeries, serious specialty coffee, vegetable-forward restaurants and bars where Hungarian wine gets the attention it deserves. We covered a lot of ground during our visit, but these are the places that stayed with us — and the…
Tallinn may be compact, but there is a lot happening food-wise. Contemporary restaurants, vegetable-forward cooking and a strong specialty coffee culture sit alongside Scandinavian-inspired bakeries and more traditional cafés. We particularly liked how relaxed eating out felt here — good food without too much formality. These are the restaurants, bakeries and coffee spots that stood…
Breda is our hometown for part of the year, which makes this guide a little more personal to us. We have seen the city’s food scene grow over the years, with creative restaurants, Mediterranean flavours, specialty coffee and some lovely places for lunch. These are the Breda restaurants and cafés we keep coming back to…
Canggu is one of those places where you could eat somewhere different every day for weeks and barely make a dent in the list. Between Berawa, Batu Bolong and neighbouring Pererenan, we found everything from natural wine and communal Italian dinners to plant-based kitchens, serious coffee and beachside lunches. These are the places that stood…
Mérida has a food scene that feels broader than you might expect from a city of this size. Yucatecan flavours, ambitious seafood restaurants, artisan bakeries and French pastry all sit surprisingly close together. We were only in the city for a short stay, but these were the places that stood out enough to still recommend…
