With every week comes a “cool” new burger restaurant churning out “dirty” food. I can’t open a magazine without reading about the next “hottest” burger “joint” (hottest now also…

Following my burger disaster in Ella, I carried on travelling north in Sri Lanka to the historical city of Kandy. I arrived in Kandy late at night. It was raining, again, and I was hungry, again. During the eight hour train journey I’d been fantasising over all the dahl, fish curry, roti, and kottu I…

*This blog post first appeared on website Civilian Global who were keen for me to share my love of burgers, Bruce Springsteen, food and travel. I don’t remember the first time I heard Bruce Springsteen’s music. I’d love to tell you I recall those first few notes of “Thunder Road”, that the opening lines of…

*This post first appeared on Time Out, on Friday 14th June. Living in London, I’ve developed quite a list of my favourite places to eat, drink and be merry. Whilst I appreciate it’s unlikely this will ever happen, I can’t help but daydream about the chance of taking Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band…

For any of you who follow me on Twitter, you’ll realise there’s a third ‘b’ I’m developing a bit of a liking too. That’s right, I’m really hitting it off with my new road bike. Who knew cycling could be so fun! Plus, cycling means I can eat more burgers. With this in mind I…

I’m a bit miffed to only be trying parmo now. My Dad’s from Newcastle, so I’d have hoped he would have introduced me to this specialty dish from North East England earlier in my lifetime. I’ve been raised listening to Bruce Springsteen and appreciating burgers, but my dad sadly let me down in the parmo department. For those that aren’t…
