How Princess Cruises is servIng up innovative dining

    The exclusive dining experience on the Princess Discovery is unlike any other I have been a part of during my travels. "360: An Extraordinary Experience" is dining immersion making one feel like you’re sitting in the Greek countryside with olive trees or smelling the fragrance of lavender in the south of France. Thanks to Princess Cruises, I savored this time with fellow bloggers. I immediately became captivated with the experience when I heard beautiful music played by two violinists and…

Bon appétit, Seychelles-style

MelanieMaya This archipelago´s cuisine blends various aspects of French, Chinese, Indian and African influences, and not surprisingly, seafood – fish, octopus (above) and shellfish – plays a major role.  Spices that abound here include coriander, ginger, and lemongrass, and other common elements include coconut milk and fruit like tamarind and papaya. Seafood is prepared baked, curried, grilled, salted, smoked, steamed, and wrapped in banana leaves, and invariably served with rice. One…

    This week's cocktail is the daiquiri...Hemingway's drink made the way he would have had it (in other words, not a rum smoothie). Join us, and the birds, on the patio with your own daiquiri. http://tinyurl.com/yam5d8n

    We are very excited to be participating in the Go Green Expo in Los Angeles later this month. Come by Booth #310 between January 22 & 24 at the Los Angeles Convention Center at 1201 South Figueroa St., South Hall J, and watch some terrific video of the eco-adventures we offer at Alderwood Retreat. Naturalist guided hikes, guided sea kayaking past bird rookeries and sea otter colonies, marine tours to see porpoise & whales, voluntourism projects like cleaning up our outlying beaches, historical & cultural tours, cooking classes, and SO much more are all available at our eco-lodge in the pristine Alaskan wilderness on Kodiak Island. This show is oriented by & for people who care about taking care of the environment, so there'll be lots to see! The first folks to e-mail us will recieve free passes into the show!!! Hope to see you there!

    Actually in most tourist destinations, CUN,ACA the custom control is a matter of pressing a button. A formality. Unless you are bringing a lot of gear and trolly packed of suitcases

    Darryl, thank you! I enjoyed your story very much. The way you describe downtown PV - can't wait to get there. Now I'm also prepared for Mexican customs control. Good to know!
    Smiles!

    Emma, try to get to El Set. about half an hour before sunset for a great meal and a spectacular sunset. It's located about a mile south of town on Playa Conchas Chinas, in between the Lindomar and Hotel Conchas Chinas properties. Check out my old Puerto Vallarta report at http://tinyurl.com/yerxbf2

    Also, Cenederia Ene is a good spot for cheap eats downtown.

    Please advice on great little restaurant(s) in Puerto Vallarta. I'll be in town for only one full day, working on an article and am looking for something to wow my readers. Gracias to more experienced travelers who don't mind sharing!

    I agree, the guidebooks generally are no help when it comes to food. We give our travelers detailed info on the food where they're going and restaurant recommendations. Frequent question I get: Is it possible to have a bad meal in Barcelona? To which I always answer, Yes! Unfortunately.

    Next to where I'm staying in Cuenca, Ecuador is Sakura Sushi. It's everywhere.
