A collection of epicurious experiences, latte grams and world travels likely to whet your appetite. In memoriam of Anthony Bourdain: "IT'S BEEN AN ADVENTURE. WE TOOK SOME CASUALTIES OVER THE YEARS. THINGS GOT BROKEN. THINGS GOT LOST. BUT I WOULDN'T HAVE MISSED IT FOR THE WORLD."
Eat Carbonara!!! The real thing, yes, with raw egg — ideally from a happy chicken which leads to this beautiful deep yellow-orange color from the yolk — and guanciale (the ultimate form of bacon bits in Italy) and lots of parmigiano (not on top but already perfectly balanced in the actual dish.

First unedited impressions from Hotel El Mangroove, the happy medium between a busy all-inclusive resorts and the independent smaller hotels. Disney Adventures uses this boutique hotel as the final stop on their Costa Rica tour, so you get 30 people arriving all at once – and a fair share of more Americans, but also local […]
Cold Costa Rican craft beer, amazing views and great food – all provided by gracious hosts William (chef and soon brewmaster at Monkey Brewing Co.) and Sandro (bartender and always smiling maitre d’) – what more could you ask for? Skip eating downtown at Playas Del Coco and head straight up to “The Lookout”, you […]
