Travel Like a Local. Get the scoop before you land. Tuesday, July 27, 2010. Kiawah Island/ Charleston Gems. Why Kiawah Island is Special. Kiawah has the most natural beaches I have ever seen. It has wide beaches and preserved natural areas. The interior is covered with luscious vegetation and the houses of muted colors blend in. You can rent bikes and leave your car parked for the week, if you are content to stay on the island. Protected bike paths run from one end to the other. For breakfast, you must t...

Travel Like a Local: A Biltmore Breakfast
http://travelikealocal.blogspot.com/2010/01/biltmore-breakfast.html
Travel Like a Local. Get the scoop before you land. Sunday, January 17, 2010. Many of the recipes in the winter section of the Biltmore cookbook are breakfast items. Perhaps that is because the days are shorter and when it is cold outside, who wouldn't rather stay in bed with a delicious breakfast or brunch? They are ultimate comfort foods, after all, no matter what time of day you serve them. Pumpkin Pancakes with Toasted Pecan Butter. Chrorizo Bread Pudding with White Chocolate Cheese and Scallions.

Travel Like a Local. Get the scoop before you land. Friday, April 30, 2010. This is the first place I've tried duck fat fries. If you watch Anthony Bourdain's show on the Travel Channel, you've heard him rave about duck fat fries. As an occasional splurge, try them for the rich flavor that brings out the roasted potato flavor. Not your ordinary fries. You'll see what I mean. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). And she can cook! Coconut Oil Biscuits (only 3 ingredients! Life on a Tuscan Farm.

Travel Like a Local. Get the scoop before you land. Monday, February 1, 2010. Why Spannocchia is Special. Perhaps this is the place that really started it all for me; this fascination about slow food. I had the chance to visit this centuries old sustainable farm two years ago as a part of Liberal Arts course ( http:/ goglobal.uncg.edu/. The people are warm and obviously committed to the history and mission of the farm. They will give you a tour of the gardens and animals. You will meet the happie...I hig...

Travel Like a Local. Get the scoop before you land. Friday, November 27, 2009. Why the North Georgia Mountains are Special.

Travel Like a Local. Get the scoop before you land. Tuesday, October 27, 2009. Why St. Croix is So Special. I spent my last trip trying to figure out how to move there permanently. and people often do. Obviously, I would never consider moving to a place unless there was great food. On my first of two visits to this island, I got a great tip about a vegetarian soul food restaurant in downtown Frederiksted. It's called Yucca's Kitchen. Best sunset view restaurant: Ono's. Day sail trip to Buck Island. T...
