Food and Travel

Food and travel: It’s always tricky balancing between indulging in new foods and sticking to your principles. I used to follow a bunch of foodie pages before travel, trying to cram in more restaurants in a week than I eat out at in a year at home. That gluttony was once the focal point of visiting a new city – but I’ve come to realize how that just becomes a pointless, never ending chase for food. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This Europe trip, I managed a 24 hour, 21 hour, and 20 hour fast (just from being so busy), and still found some healthy places to eat, which really made me happy. But I also “let myself go” with croissants (post-workout, of course) and picked a few nice restaurants to eat at. It was a good balance of fasting/feasting: 📷 • Green Bowl/Avocado Toast 🥑 (Lulu’s, Barcelona) • Frog 🐸 legs/Escargot (Roger, Paris) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • Rabbit Brain 🧠 On Lobster/Steak Tartare On Bone Marrow/Prawn Ceviche (Suculent, Barcelona) • Pizzeria 🍕 Poplare (Paris) • Afternoon Tea 🍵(Sketch Gallery, London) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • Taquitos o Virutas de Bellota (Enrique Tomas, Barcelona)
