Hotel d’Angleterre – Where timeless Elegance meets Perfection

As a passionate world traveler living in central Copenhagen, a staycation at Kongens Nytorv in the city centre never occurred to me. Oh well, at least not until spring time in 2020 showed up… and the world somehow came to a standstill, and travel bans became a bad habit. The beautiful Hotel d’Angleterre (established in […]

It’s all so delicious…. at the Nimb in Copenhagen

The small, exclusive boutique hotel Nimb, with the perfect location in/next to Tivoli gardens now offers a full year weekend brunch. We were very lucky to be allocated a really nice table by the window, overlooking Tivoli gardens – which is one of my favorite landmarks in town. I had the previous brunch buffet at […]

I ♥ NY. A lot.

Amaaaaazing Thailand… Bangkok and Koh Yao Yai

  We love holidaying in Thailand and keep coming back again, and again…. Last time, we chose to fly from Copenhagen on Qatar Airways, via Doha.It was nice with halfway break at the new airport in Doha. Great facilities like free (fast) wi-fi, great shops (like Lindt chocolates pick & mix… and Tiffany…), good food […]

Strip House (Manhattan Midtown)

The Strip House (Midtown branch) is a MUST visit restaurant if you’re into great steaks. For a Scandinavian (and probably for some others too…..), the name doesn’t immediately leads you to a restaurant. However, it is indeed one of the best restaurant experiences. Ever. And anywhere in the world. We were very lucky to get a table […]

Why not spoil yourself properly at Hotel Frederiksminde?

We recently visited this gem for the second time and it was just as lovely as we remembered it. Hotel Frederiksminde is a small and cosy, yet elegant hotel, situated in the cosy town of Præstø, which is about an hour and a half drive from Copenhagen (100 km. – but lots of roadwork along the way…). […]

Deliciously 222 SW Bar & Grill – a MUST visit on Gran Canaria!

One good thing, and probably the only good thing about a wedding anniversary in the month of November, is that you’ll always have a good reason to travel….. Last year, we celebrated our first anniversary with a “Dining by design” dinner by Anantara in Thailand – simply amazing. This year, while enjoying some relaxed days on […]

Gran Canaria – somehow timeless and still going strong

We just spent a week on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria (in the Atlantic outside Morocco). The “traditional” main tourist destination for Scandinavians since the 60’s.   It was meant to be a nice, quiet and calm week, with plenty of time to relax. I like the island mostly for two reasons; -Lots of […]

Yummy food in Podgora (Croatia)

As the food-loving characters we are, we simply must let you know this….. Being a small village, the selection of restaurants in Podgora is huge and very impressive. Having tried quite a number of them during the last 4 years, we have our 3 favourites, all equally good! They all have one thing in common: […]

Restaurant Jeny – a culinary necessity!

The first time we were in Croatia (2010), we did hear about this restaurant but never made the effort to visit as we could not imagine that the food could be any better than in Podgora…. However, little did we know….and decided to try it out the following year, and….it was far above any expectations […]
