  • An Italian affair with Theo Randall and Piacere Modena

    Theo Randall and Piacere Modena - Guineafowl and Cochetino - Daniela Toporek - InterContinental Hotel

    Showcasing his cuisine and products from the Italian city of Modena, Chef Theo Randall and Piacere Modena team up for an Italian feast at his London restaurant within the InterContinental Hotel. A chunk of tomato just fell out of my mouth and onto my plate in front of everyone at the table. What a great first impression. I’m at Theo Randall’s restaurant in London’s InterContinental Hotel in Park Lane, sitting at the private dinner table with Piacere Modena ambassadors and more experienced London press. Thankfully, everyone’s distracted, except the journalist diagonally across from me, who noticed and gave me a “you fucked up, but we’ll keep it between us” look…

  • Coffee shops in Glasgow to enable your caffeine addiction

    Coffee shops in Glasgow - Daniela Toporek - Off The Rails

    From classic flat whites to intricate pour-overs, when it comes to independent cafes, Glasgow isn’t slackin’. Here are six coffee shops in Glasgow to help you get your brew on! Off The Rails Off The Rails is a candy-coloured cafe just opposite Glasgow’s Queen Street Station. Serving up breakfast and lunch sandwiches, pastries and some damn good coffee, this is a great stop to caffeinated and catch up on some work, whether it’s the start of your journey or the final destination. I had a couple of hours to kill before my train, so I ordered an oat latte and – since Glasgow gave me sweet New York nostalgia –…

  • Exploring England’s Brighton and Hove

    As far as English destinations go, none other is like the City of Brighton and Hove. The seaside town in East Sussex is vibrant, friendly, and filled with culture - old and new. And only less than 50 miles south of London, it's no wonder Brighton and Hove is one of the most beloved getaways in England.

  • A last-minute, irresponsible, glorious trip to Bath

    I drove to Bath on a last-minute whim, and I have no regrets. After a quick, four-day trip in the U.K. with my friend Megan, it was time to go home. She was ready to leave. I was ready to never go back. But I was scheduled back at a job that grossly undervalued its employees. As time grew closer to my departure, I kept feeling that it wasn’t my time to leave yet.
