Finding the Best Restaurants in Stockholm with the White Guide

Sometimes it can feel like a game of Russian roulette when trying to find good restaurants at which to dine on vacation.  Guidebooks have limited restaurants which sometimes have gone out of business since printing.  Review websites like TripAdvisor, while normally incredibly useful, sometimes fall short when it comes to restaurants, especially when you run a search and find McDonalds listed as the number ten restaurant in the city.  For our trip to Stockholm I found a great resource, the White Guide, for finding the best restaurants in Stockholm. 

Sea and Farm-to-Table Dining in Rosarito Beach Restaurants

We all know that Baja California is the land of some of the best taco stands in the world.  The towns along the coast have also been long known for delicious and affordable grilled local lobster.  In addition to these Baja food staples, Rosarito has also joined the farm-to-table movement, which provides some additional exciting dining opportunities for visitors to Rosarito and nearby Baja towns.  During a weekend in Rosarito we had the chance to eat ourselves into oblivion at a few Rosarito restaurants so we could share some of Rosarito’s best food finds with you.

10 of Portland’s Best Restaurants, Bars and Eateries

Portland, Oregon is one of the undisputed food capitals of the United States.  I believe food is a huge part of the travel experience, whether in a foreign country or my own.  We recently enjoyed a road trip through Oregon and stayed for six nights in Portland, which gave us ample time to try out a number of restaurants, bars and other eateries.  Amazingly, absolutely everything we tried was fantastic, and I highly recommend trying one or more of what I believe are some of the best restaurants in Portland during your next trip to Oregon. 

Portland Restaurants

Beast was our favorite dining experience.  Beast is in northeast Portland and has two scheduled seatings a night with a set six-course meal with optional wine pairing.  What makes Beast even more unique is that the courses are assembled in the middle of the room, providing a food performance and allowing the patrons to see the skill, thought, and care put into every dish.  Our meal included a buttermilk yogurt soup, a charcuterie plate (including a foie gras bon-bon, liver mousse, steak tartare, and duck breast prosciutto), a perfectly cooked and visually beautiful pork loin, a salad with beets and edible flowers, a selection of cheeses, and a chocolate tart.
