The Fairmont Fujairah Beach Resort is a beautiful getaway on the Gulf of Oman. It’s an all-in-one vacation destination with a beach, two amazing pools, a kid’s splash pad, and even a kid’s club, but the highlight of the resort might just be the food. With five restaurants on site, we had a chance to […]
Several months ago, our family dined at a small restaurant in a hilltop village along the French Riviera. The experience was heartwarming. The restaurant had only one employee, a boisterous chef who greeted each of his guests, never stopped smiling, and most importantly, never stopped moving. We marvelled at the way he prepared each meal […]
What a joy it is to eat in Berlin. Unlike in many European cities, it’s fairly easy to stumble upon a great meal for less than 10 Euros. From Turkish Doners to Polish soup, Berlin’s international mix of cheap eats is a foodie’s dream. Each day brings a new culinary treat for those willing to […]
Discovering Cagnes Sur Mer When we were touring through Southern France this past summer, one of the destinations I most wanted to visit was Cannes. Being a movie buff, I was interested in seeing the city that hosts the world’s most famous film festival, which is held each May. We were due to visit the […]
Our three-day trip to Seville was far too short. Despite an epic struggle to find a parking spot near our apartment, we fell in love with Seville within moments of exploring its maze of interconnecting streets. After spending time in Málaga, Ronda, and Granada, we were exited to explore the biggest city in the region. […]

To explore the medina is a experience that, in my view, […]
Here is a common predicament we encounter while travelling. We’ve just spent the day exploring an unfamiliar city. After walking between 5 and 10 kilometres over several hours, everyone is famished. A good meal and a drink would be the perfect remedy for our fatigue, so we pull out our phones to scan for restaurants using TripAdvisor. […]
Living in a big city, I think it’s a bad idea to have a favourite restaurant. While I am often asked about my favourite restaurant, I never seem to have a ready answer. Having a go to destination in Toronto might mean that I forgo the chance to try something new. Limiting my opportunities to discover […]
While Yashy and I are not shy about taking the kids to a nice restaurant, on many occasions, we are eager to have a night to ourselves. Following a recent Travel Massive meet-up near St. Lawrence Market, we seized the opportunity to discover a new restaurant. Naturally, we conducted some quick research at the meet-up, and […]
With its abundance of great wine, delicious craft beer, and fine French cooking, Quebec is one of our favorite places to visit.
