We are back! After more than a year on the road, 15 countries, 100+ fantastic producers met, the time has come to park the van and put our backpacks in the closet.

We want to thank you all for following our adventures, for all your kind messages along the way and for those who opened the doors to their home, wherever it was. After such a long time on the road, we still have plenty of content to publish & videos to edit. Back in reality, we are now looking for a job that allows us to make a good use of everything we've learnt.

Stay tuned people, a lot more is coming!

Travelogue #2: South American Sips

Travelogue #2: South American Sips

*This is the uncut version of an article that was originally published in thetaste.ie* Well, hello you, it’s a pleasure to welcome you back here. I hope you enjoyed our adventures in the Mendoza as much as we did back then. This time, we’ll step back a little and consider South America as one destination. The main point of our travels was to discover how people would eat and drink in the rest of the World. However, when we left, we didn’t even realise how “European” we were i

Tuk Tuk in Battambang: Cambodian Food with #nofilter

Tuk Tuk in Battambang: Cambodian Food with #nofilter

A great thing to do if you are in Battambang for a short while is to rent a Tuk Tuk for a half day (around $15) & discover the surrounding countryside. We chose the foodie trail, but you can visit temples as well. You can start your day around 10am, no stress, your tuk tuk driver will pick you up at your hotel, they usually speak a good English but you might double check with your hotel/guesthouse reception when booking. Below is the list of the places where we chose to s

My First Olive Oil Tasting in Argentina

My First Olive Oil Tasting in Argentina

Finally, now that we’ve dropped our bags for 10 days in Buenos Aires, I could shop and got some nice Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) to taste! For the first one, I decided to check out a supermarket to see what I could find there. The one I found was called “Pont l’ėvêque”, I know it sounds really French and weird actually to be called “Pont l’ėvêque” for an EVOO, since Pont l’ėvêque is a cheese PDO. You don’t expect an EVOO to taste like cheese! But in the supermarket we went

How do they Eat in...Brazil?

How do they Eat in...Brazil?

A big part of the enjoyment we find in travelling is to get lost in a different culture and to notice the small details that remind you that you’re away. With food being such a key element of our everyday lives, the way people eat tells a lot about their culture. In Brazil, some of these eating habits made up the “exotic side” of going out for a meal. Here are a few things you can expect to find there: Self service: Food by kilo Just like we buy our veggies and fruits by the

Day 9-14: Incredible Ilha Grande!

Day 9-14: Incredible Ilha Grande!

If you go to Rio de Janeiro for a couple of weeks, although the city itself is wonderful with a lot of things to see, don't forget the incredible places surrounding it, inside the state of Rio de Janeiro. One of them is Ilha Grande, one of the islands in the bay of Angra dos Reis, about 2 hours South of Rio. There are plenty of private shuttles organised if you aren't driving, and even if you are, don't even bother with the car since it is forbidden to take it to the island.

Day 5: Gloria & Santa Teresa Market

Day 5: Gloria & Santa Teresa Market

What a day ! Rio has so many different atmospheres to offer! Started our day with the stunning Market of Gloria and then Santa Teresa gave us one of the best views of Rio & a traditional feijoada! We were lucky to meet the owner of the Bar Do Mineiro: Diogenes. He explained to us that his place had become famous after being advertised in the Louis Vuitton " carnet de voyage ". Since that he's been recommended in many travel books and in the fantastic guide "Where Chefs Eat".

Day 1: Arriving in Rio

What is: Old World VS New World?

What is: Old World VS New World?

Apart from movies on pirates, secret treasure islands and wine, there aren’t many things today that still rely on the good old separation between Old World and New World. In fact, it might have been new to the people back 500 years ago, but with Chile making wine since 1530, Argentina since 1560, South Africa since 1655 or even California since 1697, it doesn’t look like the New World is that new anymore… So why do we keep using these terms today and what do they really mean?
