With so many beer halls/gardens in Munich and only three days in the city, we had to narrow down our options. A German friend highly recommended the Chinesischer Turm beer garden in Munich’s English Garden, so we put it at the top of our list. This place did not disappoint. In fact,…
When our AirBnB host mentioned Augustiner Brau, we put it at the top of our list of things to do while in Salzburg. We’ve never experienced a true beer hall before and this one’s the largest beer tavern in Austria, so it was a great way to get our feet wet. Augustiner Brau…
We don’t have many beer gardens in the States so Nick and I have been spending our afternoons checking out different ones all around the cities we’ve been. In Krakow, things took a bit of a turn when we stumbled upon Wódka, a Polish vodka tasting bar near Old Town’s…
Bar Mlecznys, or Polish Milk Bars, are government subsidized cafeterias from Poland’s communist past. They were places where workers could get a hot, inexpensive meal after World War II.

Our days in Prague have revolved around finding the best views of the city. During our quest, multiple sources led us to Letna Beer Garden and it’s since become a daily sunset ritual. Letna Beer Garden is just outside of Old Town, located within Letna Park. It overlooks the entire city;…

My grama flew into Edinburgh Wednesday night and of course our first outing together was afternoon tea. We hopped on the bus and headed 45 minutes out of the city center to a big department-type store called Dobbies, with a tea room in the back. It was a bit of…
The customs line at the Edinburgh airport was surprisingly long and when we got to the front, the lady asked us if we too were here for golf. We didn’t know what she was talking about but since we’re the type to follow the action, we decided to find out. Turns out…
Our mission in Paris was to relax and just “be” in the city. I had visions of us sitting in cafés, and wandering around with no sense of time. However as soon as we touched down, an unintentional fire under lit under our asses and we hit the ground running….
Our Paris apartment is on the 7th floor with no elevator, which is only good for one reason: it allows us an extra chance to burn off some off the carbs we’ve eaten that day. When Nick and I reminisce about Paris, the topic of food comes up every.single.time. It’s…
