Knowing where you and your partner are going to eat during your stay in Scarborough can be a challenge. Often we can be left strolling up and down the high street, promenade or central plaza looking for a decent restaurant only to find there are hundreds to choose from with us having no idea which ones are good, bad or generally OK.

What comes to your mind when you think about India? Bright colors? Spices? Sarees? We all have our own idea of what India is like.

And in recent years, it's been attracting increasing interest from outsiders, whilst still retaining much of its traditional charm.

A table full of good wines to sample along with creative food pairings isn’t a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Luckily, I was part of the Occasional Wine Council blessed with this task.

Four Chardonnays were on our list of wines to sample. I do like a good Chardonnay—sometimes one that is oaky and sometimes one that has been aged in only stainless steel. Three of these Chardonnays were from Wente Vineyards, located in Livermore, California, the country's oldest, continuously operated famil

What you don’t often hear about is Costa Rican food.

That’s not because there’s nothing to write home about. It’s just that Costa Rican cuisine isn’t touted as much as its sloths and surfing.
