Seafood on the beach at the Chiringuito in Spain
What could be better than eating a plate of seafood with the sand running through your toes and the sound of the waves in your ears – that’s what you’ll get when you eat at the chiringuito or seafood beach bar in Spain. [caption id="attachment_11935" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Squid and octopus at Los Boliches at Fuengirola"][/caption] These traditional restaurants are typically right on the beach and in the good old days it really was just a few tables on the sand under a makeshift roof, with the fish grilled on charcoal set on the top of an old fishing boat that had been ...
A beach paradise at Cabo Polonio and Valizas in Uruguay
This guest post takes us to Uruguay to explore the remote Cabo Polonio and beach at Valizas, as writer and film-maker Veronica Pamoukaghlian takes us back to carefree summer days of hanging out on the beach, surfing and drinking caipirinha with friends around a beach fire. [caption id="attachment_11877" align="alignleft" width="225" caption="The lighthouse at Cabo Faro, Uruguay"][/caption] The first time I heard about Cabo Polonio was in the early nineties.

A Comfortable Bavarian Gasthaus at Hotel Zur Post in Altötting
The Hotel Zur Post in Altötting is a large and comfortable 4 star Gasthof hotel that is perfectly located on the main town square of Altötting, right opposite the shrine of the Chapel of Mercy for which the town is famous. With 60 rooms, I imagine that this must be one of the largest hotels in Altötting and there are many different public rooms and eating areas to accommodate groups of different sizes, although the overall impression is comfortable and homely.

Wiener Schnitzel and cherries from Bavaria – Germany
If you like hearty home-style meals and plenty of meat, then Bavaria in Southern Germany is your kind of place. I visited this part of Germany recently on a short trip to see the Oberammergau Passion Play and here’s a taste of what you might expect when you eat out in a typical Gasthaus or Biergarten. [caption id="attachment_11502" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Mixed salad with potato pockets and cream cheese in Bavaria, Germany"][/caption] Meat, especially veal, pork and sausages feature prominently on every menu in Bavaria and you’ll find plenty of roast meat dishes on the menu typically served with potato dumplings and salad ...
