You never really think of Prague as a foodie destination. One of my friends had once jokingly said that if you get hungry in Prague, you eat meat and potatoes because that’s all there is. So to be honest I had no expectation of savouring any extraordinary meal when I reached Prague. But it took me less than a day to fall in love with the local food. The way some locals & restaurants are trying to revive pre-war culture & bring back the lost recipes to table is extraordinary. I am going to give you a small glimpse of it in this Prague Eating Out Guide.

Use this for your weekend of gluttony! Let me tell you the 12 things you need to try in Amsterdam in this ‘Hungry in Amsterdam’ guide.

Most of you will think I am being ridiculous when I tell you that I am not a big fan of beach holidays. Firstly the idea of sitting on the beach whole day doing nothing terrifies me and second the salty breeze ruins my hair (something that ladies with extremely curly hair can relate to) I like active holidays or immersive travel experiences – walk, hike, eat, drink, understand the culture, admire the true beauty of a place kind of holidays. Read in this Lanzarote travel guide how you can escape the tourist traps and really explore the island life.

A lot changed for me in this year – both on Personal and professional front. Changing my base to London was the best thing that happened in 2017, it brought with it a lot of challenges as well. Finding a new job (Yes, I am not one of those ‘quit my corporate job to travel 365 days a year’ kind of a person :)), saying goodbyes to my family & close friends and thinking of how The Nomadic Gourmet can bring you the best in travel & food. Let me take you through The Nomadic Gourmet’s year of travel & food.

“It’s so cold and windy here..Are you sure Spring has begun?” I think to myself as I walk out from the exit gate in Belfast.

From that to single digit temperature in Belfast; I started doubting my travel plans. But I spent the next 3 days enjoying every second in this beautiful city. Here are my top tips for your weekend in Belfast.
