The first time I encountered Sansibar was in fact not through food, but through a pair of slippers. Turns out Sansibar is a whole brand of stuff – including condiments, apparel and a restaurant. Several years ago I spied a pair of slippers perfect for […]
You know a dish is good when 4 out of your party of 5 order it – and this is always the case with any form of pasta served with chanterelle mushrooms here in Sylt (an island in the North Sea of Germany). Chanterelle mushrooms […]
