The colourful food is the good stuff. That’s one thing I’ve learned in my eating journey over the past year. Our foodie day (the beginnings of which can be seen here) led us to Milk at lunch. We had walked up the the Edinburgh Castle after […]
As an avid cafe-goer in Sydney, and with breakfast not included at our hotel, one of the first issues S and I tackled upon arrival in Edinburgh was – which cool cafe are we going to have breakfast at?! After scouring Urbanspoon and various food […]
Our first day in Edinburgh entailed basically walking the length of the city to find a jeweller that could fix S’s necklace. Our search led us all through the Old Town where our hotel was, down the Royal Mile, across to the New Town and […]
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 […]
After a 30+ hour journey (various photos of which can be found on Instagram), across basically all continents, across all cultures that I am from, and using various forms of transport I have arrived at the small, idyllic island of Sylt. Sylt is located in […]

As we roadtripped up north we came across Baked Uprising’s instagram – how convenient, since we needed some good cafe and food recommendations in the area! Her instagram feed led us to Suspension Coffee, which turned out to be exactly the type of chilled place we needed post-music […]

Hi!
My name is Ellen and I started talk&spoon sometime around the end of 2012.
I've gone through phases of wanting to grow the blog, getting tired of writing, getting tired of eating, getting too busy to write, missing blogging loads - but my aim has always been to share my eating experiences with you in a food-focussed manner - i.e. you won't see that much about drinks because I don't drink alcohol or coffee.
