San Diego Bites: Searsucker

Insider San Diego's Searsucker

As I sat down at a table at Searsucker in downtown San Diego I had to pinch myself. I would never have imagined that I would be eating in two Top Chef restaurants in nearly as many months (first one here), especially while on a trip with Mr. Misadventures. It is very hard to convince [...]

Friday Food Foto – George’s at the Cove

Georges At the Cove Shrimp Ceviche

I normally don’t post multiple images for Friday Food Foto, but I am breaking the rules today. George’s at the Cove in La Jolla (San Diego area) is a famous spot for lunch (or dinner) with a gorgeous view. You have to come early or plan ahead with reservations to get a good spot, but [...]

Friday Food Foto – Cuvee Napa Oh! Benedict

Napa Terrace Inn Cuvee Breakfast

I love eggs. I even have a Pinterest board dedicated to them.  I can eat them any meal, any way.  So having eggs benedict is nothing new, but I had a very original version of it while staying at the Napa River Terrace Inn during my #Trafalgar2012 trip. I had breakfast at their restaurant, Cuvee, [...]

Making Dinner at Ramekins Culinary School

After a full day of some of Trafalgar’s best Northern California guided vacation highlights, including wine and olive oil tasting at Round Pond Estate, a lovely lunch at Cindy’s Backstreet Kitchen, and Italian medieval adventures at Castello di Amorosa, we ended our day with dinner at Ramekins Culinary School.  I was familiar with this place [...]

Cindy Pawlyn

Leaving Round Pond Estate where the #Trafalgar2012 group had the pleasure of olive and wine tasting in the most beautiful facility that I have seen in wine country, we headed into St. Helena for lunch and to what would be the biggest thrill for me during the entire weekend.  Despite being a Top Chef geek [...]

After a wonderful morning of wine blending at Ravenswood Winery, the #Trafalgar2012 group hopped in the coach and headed into downtown Sonoma for lunch at El Dorado Kitchen. It was another facet of the Northern California guided vacation that the I experienced with the amazing Trafalgar team – the total satisfaction of my inner foodie, [...]

Friday Food Foto – Tres Leches at Cha Cha Cha

Cha Cha Cha Tres leches cake

After the holidays we’ve just had the last thing you might be thinking of is food….but I can’t help it.  It is a topic that I am insatiable about! There are still so many foods I haven’t tried yet and I am constantly on the look out for new ones. Sometimes it is just a [...]

Tasty Tuesday – El Dorado Kitchen Banana Crisp

Banana Crisp from El Dorado Kitchen

For the last couple of weeks, and through December as well, Fridays have been and will be reserved for my A Passion for Paris or Beyond Paris posts. However, being the total foodie that I am, I have decided to temporarily move Friday Food Foto to Tasty Tuesday (what can I say, I like alliteration!) [...]

J’adore – Eat Boutique

J'adore Eat Boutique - Out And About Paris by White Loft Studio

The first time I encountered Maggie, the mastermind behind Eat Boutique, was at professional social media conference three years ago in Boston. She was speaking on a panel about community while in the process of transitioning from Trip Advisor to Haven in Paris where she had begun to work with. Being an avid reader of [...]

Crushing it in Sonoma

If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area a certain length of time you are bound to become acquainted with someone who owns a winery, co-ops at a winery, grows their own grapes to make wine OR with someone who has a friend who does any of the aforementioned activities.  It is inevitable, trust [...]
