What a journey this was, it was like breakfast, lunch, and dinner all in one meal. Don’t forget dessert at the end. Luckily we had all day prior to dinner to visit Stonehenge and see our neighbor Sara who was visiting with her family in Bristol. We met them for a quick pint at a […]Read Post ›
I know, I know, we are such name-dropping, status-obsessed Michelin addicted whores, but what can I say? At least we’re not in denial of it. I like to see myself as a self-actualized Narcissist. Or at least a Narcissist on the path towards self-actualization. I just need to get all the things on my over-compensation […]Read Post ›
After a quick weekend in London staying with our friends, our road trip to the English countryside was when we really started to feel like we were on holiday. This is an amazing Relais and Chateau property. You realize the caliber of such a place when this is what you see in the driveway. It […]Read Post ›
Ranked the 3rd best bar in the world according to Travel and Leisure Magazine. It employs a strick no-standing policy. https://www.travelandleisure.com/slideshows/best-bars-in-the-world-drinks#9 This is how going to a bar should be, civilized. I don’t like going to a bar and standing in line with all the other peasants. I want to make my reservations 6 months […]Read Post ›
I thought this bit of history referenced by the chef himself will give you a glimpse into the arcane nerdiness this experience gets into. It is never easy naming a restaurant. On this occasion, I wanted something that represented our menu that is inspired by historic British gastronomy, so I searched for a name that […]Read Post ›
Fuck the world bitches! Blood, Color. Chaos. Ultra-modern. Sleek. These are the words that come to mind when I think back to my experience at the Man Behind the Curtain. Very avant-garde with a kind of sex, drugs, and rock and roll irreverent vibe. The chef kind of looks like Vince Neil come to think […]Read Post ›
Up until several years ago, L’enclume was rated as the best restaurant in Britain, before being knocked down to #2 by Nathan Outlaw’s restaurant in Cornwall in the south of Britain. We wanted to also try Nathan Outlaw’s place, but the drive would have made our trip too difficult. It almost requires staying in this […]Read Post ›

If you venture up to Caol Ila, you better also go to Bunnahabhain as they are right next to each other. Bunnahabhain is actually in the process of getting an 11 million pound facelift. You can probably tell that I like Bunnahabhain much more than Caol Ila already, just by looking at the featured image. […]Read Post ›
So, we came here after Bruichladdich, so we were toasted and it was already getting late. The battery was low on our phones and we lost wifi halfway to the distillery, so we had to just mirror the location on the previously mapped out directions and see where the blue dot was of our […]Read Post ›
