Foodie Travel and Experiences

Posted by Sue Bryant Sep 29, 2006

I'd like to see this section as being a mixtures of foodie travel ideas and experiences, and entries based on one unusual or exciting ingredient, with the stories around it and ideas of what to do with it, whether it's sampling gold leaf martinis in a hip bar, or discovering purple vinegar for the first time (thanks to the wonderful Patrice Martineau, head chef at The Savoy in London, to whom I shall be eternally grateful). I'll also be reviewing books, raising travel and food issues and passing on fun anecdotes. I feel very strongly about the use of seasonal, local ingredients and the Fair Trade movement in farming, so these will certainly come into it as well. Can't stand convenience food and fast food (unless from an Asian street stall) so probably won't touch on these!
