Foods of the Week...

Cows head stew in Pogradec, Albania

The broth was wonderful. Some of the meat bits were good while others were chewy or oddly textured.

Travel involves trying new foods and new ways of preparing food. This week we showcase some of the most unusual foods we trialed in Europe.

Breakfast sausage & potatoes in Vlore, Albania

The food was fine, the mistake was ours. Read about it in Decisions: What's for Breakfast?!

Octopus Salad in Naples, Italy

Greg was not a fan and stopped after one bite. Shannon enjoyed her salad, but wouldn't buy it often.

Take five. You deserve it! Many cultures around the world highly regard coffee or coffee breaks. Whether you have a cafe des epices in Morocco, a phe sua da in Vietnam, or a Fika in Sweden, there is always time to slow life and have a coffee break with us.

Coffee or Cocktail?

The production and consumption of alcoholic beverages date back to ancient civilizations. Societies and cultures around the world have made use of alcohol in their religion, medicine, purity measurements, trade, funerary, and entertainment. Drink with us around the world.

Where are we drinking last week and this week?

You can take the people out of Italy, but you can't take Italy out of the people. Prosecco is currently our favorite wine and thankfully we can find it at home too.

Whether you call it a square, marketplace, piazza, cognate, or plaza, for centuries, human life revolved around the center of town. No matter where you lived or how you lived the stones in the town square connected us together. As the gathering place, the town square allowed people to assemble for food, news, skills, religions, advice, politics, music, etc. As we travel and experience the town squares in other countries, we hope to enrich our perspectives of people and yours. We are all human though we walk on different paths.
