6 capitals, 14 cocktail bars
We take an armchair tour of six capitals with the most exciting cocktail scenes in the world.
There’s Noma, and then some
While it’s still mission impossible to get a seat at the world’s number one restaurant, Copenhagen has so much more to offer serious epicureans: from delectable hot dog stands to smørrebrød with a gastronomic twist.
Fairy chimneys and sacred sites
Turkey’s most fascinating sights lie beyond Istanbul in the surreal and ancient landscapes of Cappadocia and Izmir.
Budapest trails
This historical, laidback city makes a proper first impression but one that is cheekily lined with bohemian undercurrents. It’s a gem just waiting to be discovered.
Bustling Barcelona
Forget about going to bed early in Barcelona. The city is a non-stop whirlwind of exciting tapas bars, funky neighbourhoods, and pulsating clubs.
Peru delights
For London-based chef Martin Morales, the colourful and friendly city of Arequipa in Peru always leaves him feeling at home in more ways than one.
Eating and living as mother nature intended
With a diverse arable terrain and a generous sprinkling of hot springs, Taiwan is a great destination for a wellness holiday. Mavis Teo visits Miaoli, Wulai and Taipei and immerses herself in the nourishing culture of eating seasonal produce straight off the land.
Living on the waterfront
The scenic backdrops, excellent local produce and enjoyable thermal springs of Lake Garda combine to give chef Denis Lucchi an excellent package for a truly blissful retreat.
Bombay fever
Chef Irfan Pabaney’s love affair with Mumbai stems from the city’s blend of cosmopolitan energy and traditional charms.
