We aren’t food critics, and though we love cooking, we can’t bring our kitchen with us. Without a doubt, though, food is one of the central pleasures of travel. This is our running repository of the tastes that defined our journey: the street food that surprised us, the recipes we’ve hacked together in tiny kitchens, and the local spirits we’ve discovered along the way.

For as long as we’ve been able to raise a glass, Kat and I have loved a cocktail. Our beloved bar cabinet has followed us across oceans and we’ve kept it stocked with the best and the bizarre in our mission to make ever more interesting tipple. We’re leaving the cabinet behind, but not the spirit of adventure that drives our adventure for spirits.

We don’t discriminate when it comes to a world-class meal. Whether it’s a perfectly plated tasting menu in a Michelin-starred kitchen or flawless street food down a side alley, we are always looking for good food. This rarely has anything to do with price and everything to do with the skill of the chef and quality of the ingredients.

This is a curated repository of the flavors that defined our journey. You won’t find filler here—just a collection of the most exceptional dishes, the most interesting spirits, and the kitchen rituals we’ve picked up along the way. These are the provisions that make the adventure worthwhile.

Back when we had a permanent home, we liked nothing more than preparing a big meal in a well-equipped kitchen. We still like that, but a life in motion doesn’t always provide the tools to which we’d grown accustomed. These are the recipes we’ve adapted to be made anywhere in the world using the ingredients most likely to be available.
