Bar Boca’s is a hip hangout perfect for lunch, drinks and dinner with friends. At Bar Boca’s sharing is caring. The innovative menu is always changing but the concept stays the same: delicious platters and small bites to split with good company.

Sugo Pizza: Pizza Al Taglio in Amsterdam
Sugo Pizza is a sleek unassuming pizza al taglio shop in Amsterdam’s De Pijp neighborhood. In case you’re unfamiliar with “al taglio”, it means by the slice. Romans eat pizza like this morning, noon and night and I have to admit, it’s one of my favorite things about the city! This is the one and only Roman […]
A Day in Mitte, Berlin
At the heart of Berlin, exists Mitte, an affluent neighborhood known for its shops, eats, and galleries. Though it may not impress the hipsters in Kreuzberg or the trendsetters in neighboring Prenzlauer Berg, Mitte seems to have it all. Here, abandoned graffitied buildings sit adjacent to modern contemporary homes. Sprightly young families sip on freshly […]
Buck and Breck Berlin: Cocktail Bar
Buck and Breck Berlin is a pretentious secret doorway speakeasy wedged between a seemingly desolate Doris Bistro and a quiet police station. The discreet entrance is typically only accessible by pressing a buzzer marked “BAR” on the wall outside. When we arrived, poorly dressed and unprepared, we were hesitantly greeted by a young doorman in a […]

Dignita Amsterdam: Eat Well, Do Good
A typical Dutch brunch consists of chocolate sprinkles on toast. No, I didn’t just make that up, it’s a real thing Dutch people genuinely enjoy (see, I wasn’t lying). Luckily, the Dutch are learning that sprinkles are meant for ice cream and leaning toward the eggs and bacon brunch we Americans love so much. Being a devoted […]

Having lived in Amsterdam for a few months now, it only seems appropriate to update one of my all-time favorite posts. I originally wrote this post about a year ago, after having spent only four days in Amsterdam. Now that I call Amsterdam home, I have fallen even more deeply in love with the wide […]
24 Hours in Antwerp Part 2
After a long day of sightseeing in Antwerp and unexpected torrential downpours, we rallied for the evening. Since we hadn’t eaten too long before, we decided our first stop would be for cocktails at a place cleverly named, Sips Cocktailbar. Sips Cocktailbar Sips is owned by Manuel Wouters. Manuel offers an impressive menu of cocktails to […]
24 Hours in Antwerp Part 1
A glass of wine or two and a few clicks was all it took for me and two friends to book a one-way ticket to Antwerp. Turns out, I love Antwerp and here are the many reasons why. So many in fact, I had to split the post into two equally fabulous parts. Want to hear […]
