Feast at Lele

December 1, 2015

Life in Maui (Hawaii) goes at a different pace. It constantly feels as if tomorrow is a long time. It is this amazing island where clichés coexist with amazing surprises. This luau was one of them: the most widespread Hawaiian cliché (hula dancing), of course packed with tourists AND locals. Locals do attend luaus! Who would have told... Check my review here.

 

 
 
 

Tartine Bakery

November 25, 2015

Tartine Bakery is one of the reasons why San Francisco might be the best city in the world. I wish we could have such a relaxed vibe here in London and also those morning buns. And croissants. And lemon tarts. And basically anything they sell there. You can read my review now on Plate Selector.

 

 
 

Gringa Dairy

November 22, 2015

Kristen is a modern hero. She makes Mexican cheese from her south London dairy, Gringa Dairy. Born in California, she quit her corporate job to start her own food business without having worked in that industry before. And she made it. Her story is really inspiring, read more on Comidas magazine.

Caffe Trieste

November 15, 2015

While road tripping the Golden State I shot this story about the cafe that introduced the espresso in California. We coincidentally chatted with a lovely couple who had met at the Caffe in their hippy days back in the 70s and surprisingly she happened to be from southern Spain. Read more here. 

 
 

 
 

E5 Bakehouse

November 04, 2015

E5 Bakehouse is one of my favourites cafes in London and my absolutely go-to place for bread. I was delighted to photoshoot the bakery and interview the founder, Ben Mackinnon, for Plate Selector.

Spending time behind the counters confirmed what I suspected: they are indeed a happy bunch. You can read the story now here.
