I recently visited Mosebacke Etablissement, the restaurant of entertainment venue Södra Teatern, situated at Mosebacke Torg on (or more like on top of) Södermalm in Stockholm.

Wapa Tapa restaurant
Our last night at the Palm Oasis Maspalomas, and on the south side of the island for that matter, we decided to head for the Wapa Tapa restaurant that had got some great reviews.

Canary Islands part two: Palm Oasis Maspalomas Hotel
After our first two days in Playa del Inglés, we managed to make a last minute booking for the Palm Oasis Maspalomas.

If I were to spend the rest of my life on an island, eating only one dish of my choice, it would almost certainly be a classic spaghetti bolognese. Most people are very aware of this Italian classic (although they call it ragu) and there are probably almost as many versions of this dish as there are… Continue reading Homemade spaghetti bolognese recipe
