Kanazawa -Best Sushi in Lisbon
I have finally found the best sushi in Lisbon!
Kanazawa is an eight-seater restaurant helmed by Portuguese chef Paulo Morais, who has just been recognised by the Embassy of Japan in Portugal as the gastronomic ambassador of Japanese cuisine.

July was a good month!
With the lifting of the travel ban across the island, we can finally move outside of our county.

The restaurant sits on top of a hill overlooking the Douro river
Food Traveler’s Guide to Maui, Hawaii
This is a guest post by my friend and fellow blogger Katia Dickenson of uxprofit.blog.
In mid-Feburary, Katia and her family went on a week-long jaunt to Maui. Throughout the week they journeyed across the island, visited a cat sanctuary, toured a chocolate factory and dined very well along the way. Below is a report from Katia on the food aspect of Maui, accompanied by her professional quality photos, which made me want to book a trip to Hawaii’s second largest island right away!
Gluten-free in Portland
This is a guest post by my friend Darcy, who visited Portland last weekend and checked out the gluten-free food scenes over there. Below is a report of her food adventure in the City of Roses:
This is gluten-free comfort food. Started by a retired couple after he learned that he had Celiac disease. They also serve Chicken and Waffles, using different flour mixes.
Lamb Shanks in Seattle

This used to be my favorite lamb shank place in all of Seattle Metro.
