Friday February 12th, 2017 – Alberto K, Radisson Blu Royal, Copenhagen Although not normally a big fan of hotel restaurants (they can swing wildly in my experience between averagely bland to downright horrible, and are usually overpriced, the Radisson Blu Royal’s sister-hotel in Copenhagen, the Scandinavia, being a case in point) this didn’t stop me…

Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Weekend 1, Day 1
Saturday 11th February, 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 1 Being in Copenhagen for work again, this time for three solid weeks, I was in the fortunate position of being able to fly home or have my partner flown out to me for one weekend of the two. I opted to stay put and let the company…
Food/Travel 2017 – Copenhagen (Week 1)
Sunday 5th February to Thursday 9th February, 2017 – Copenhagen February may not be the best time to visit Copenhagen, especially in a snowstorm, but I didn’t have much choice as my new employers sent me out here for three weeks to complete a gruelling, brain-frying training course. I opted not to fly home each…

Saturday January 21st, 2017 – The Crazy Bear Thai Restaurant, Stadhampton, Oxfordshire Back when I was a student (sometime in the Jurassic period I think) we used occasionally, provided someone had transport available, to head out of Oxford in search of pubs, and would often end up at Stadhampton, in a fine if somewhat eccentric…

Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 4
Thursday 12th January, 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 4 British Airways while I was away introduced their new “improved” cabin service. Now while I will grant that the ham and cheese croissant I was offered on the way out was a long way from gourmet food, it was at least included in the price of my…
Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Days 2-3
Monday 9th to Wednesday 11th January, 2017 – Copenhagen, Denmark Here are a few more reflections on my first visit to Copenhagen. It’s work not pleasure so there’s not much sightseeing apart from walking about after a day in the office. So a second walk in Copenhagen after work took me down past the Tivoli…
Travel 2017 – Copenhagen, Day 1
Monday January 9th, 2017 – Copenhagen, Denmark A new year, a new country and a city that was on my list of “would be nice for a long weekend”, Copenhagen. As it is I’m here for work for three days, flying back on Thursday, but work has never stopped me being curious about my surroundings,…

Travel 2016 – Berlin, Day 4
Monday, December 6th 2016 – Berlin And so for our final day in Berlin. We’d packed, left our bags in our room courtesy of the late checkout option, and had one last breakfast care of the Club Intercontinental (not too much, we were booked for lunch at the Reichstag later in the day) and so…
