We’re currently looking to find an Australian website that sells pate, but without much success so far. This is for a Christmas gift, so any Aussies reading this can you let me know where I can buy Pate in Australia online.

A bit undercooked

September 16th, 2007 · Comments Off

Now you may have started to realise and may have not, but I do like eating. To celebrate my birthday yesterday I took Miriam out for dinner at Sikkim, a place we tried three years ago and found the mix of cuisine which supposedly follows the route of Marco Polo to suit us perfectly.

September 13th, 2007 · 2 Comments

One thing I always make sure I do when I visit the UK is go out for a curry. It’s simply the best food ever invented and I could eat it at least 5 days of the week. Leftovers are always great for breakfast and the aroma of the spices cooking is unbeatable.

Gran Festa de la Calçotada

February 1st, 2007 · Comments Off

The other day I talked how bad RENFE’s website is when I was trying to find a train to Valls, near Tarragona.
My reason for going was as close to a pilgrimage as I think I’ll ever get; the annual calçotada, which this year was on Sunday 28th January. A calçotada is simply a feast of [...]
