I read somewhere recently that the latest thing to do in Paris is “Le Drunch” – a strange name for a combined lunch/dinner… It sounds much more appealing perhaps once you know what it is! After all, what’s not to like about the idea of a long leisurely lunch spilling over into dinner and [...]
About EmmaRaphael
Emma Raphael left the UK for Copenhagen in 2009, with her ever-patient husband and two small children. Having enjoyed a couple of years in Scandinavia, Emma and her family found they enjoyed Expat life so much that they now reside in Munich – where the pace of life is relaxed, her language skills are small, and the mountains and bier halls are very large. Being one half of a self-proclaimed foodie couple, Emma enjoys the new produce and restaurants in each new country she resides in, and has made it her mission to convince people that English food no longer deserves the bad rap it once had. She can be found in the kitchen when she’s feeling homesick, trying to recreate comfort food from home. She also has huge passions for travel, photography, art, wine, gardening (although according to her Bavarian neighbours, she’s not much good at that!) and her family (of course)!Author EmmaRaphael

Foodie Round-Up: The Christmas Edition
We are in the midst of Christkindlmarkt Season here in Munich… Markets dot the city, and light up these dark December days with stalls piled high with Christmas food… All of it far too tempting, and usually incredibly sweet. Marzipan comes in all shapes and sizes, as does traditional gingerbread and chocolate covered fruit, not [...]

Foodie Round-up: Slow cooking edition
To me, food that takes hours to cook or to prepare can mean good things. It can mean having the luxury of time to work for hours on something delicious. It can mean something roasting slowly over the length of a day, filling the entire house with tempting aromas. And sometimes it can mean being [...]
