Menorca, Balearic Islands, Spain

berkinsel — Mon, 29 Sep 2014 22:48:57 +0000

Of the whole islands I have been in Mediterranean, Menorca has this something that impressed me beyond it’s natural beauty. What I mean is not a tangible thing but rather a feeling you get after you spend couple of days. Yes it has one of the finest selection of beaches. Yes it is easily accessible […]

Gin tonic is without a doubt one of my favourite cocktails. As simple it is to prepare it yet it has to be done just right. Complementary ingredients such as lime, satsuma or cucumber all adds a different twist. The ultimate outcome however relies heavily on the brand of gin that has been used and […]

Beaujolais Region, France

berkinsel — Sun, 11 Aug 2013 06:00:50 +0000

A visit to the wine making region of Beaujolais is a meditative activity. The landscape here at the hills of Beaujolais is so wonderful, so peaceful that you can spend hours looking to those lovely vineyards and the shadows they create. Not to mention the vast number of vineyards you can visit. Just in the […]

berkinsel — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 15:23:03 +0000

I admit, this is not a hidden gem anymore but truth be told it was my first time in Valon Pont d’Arc and it was a memorable start for our riviera journey. Of course, it was late July and the area was heavily packed with tourists. Still, we could be able to find a spot […]

Dost Pide, Cesme

Dost Pide is an excellent example of a local restaurant that knows what to deliver and how to deliver. What I mean is they have amazing Pide offerings and at the same time it comes with consistent quality that you can rely on. I’ve been there for 3 times each in different years and enjoy […]

Hotel Schwarzer Adler Restaurant, St Anton

berkinsel — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 15:13:59 +0000

Was it St Anton’s young crowd who probably prefers a cold pint of beer to a fine dining any time or was it our former meals, which were nice, but far away from a gastronomical wow factor I don’t know but the reality is I did not set my expectations for this night high. The […]

Ziani’s, Chelsea, London

berkinsel — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 17:33:00 +0000

Ziani’s is really the type of Italian I was looking for. I mean I love Italian food but sometimes it all makes more sense when the friendliness of the staff, the intimate feel you get, completes a very good meal as an experience. The décor is not flashy but it gives you this friendly atmosphere […]

It is in very close proximity to the Spanish Steps where also the elegant stores of luxury brands are located. The location […]
