Christina and Jim - Mr and Mrs Romance party spread - hero image for Food Drink & Indulgence hub page

Whether we’re on the road or back at base, Christina and I love good food and drink. When we travel, we’re always on the lookout for something delicious – a little bar to explore, a restaurant full of old grandeur or a stall on the street selling exciting hawker fare.

At home, there’s nothing better than trying out a new recipe, be it a dish we’ve discovered or a cocktail that sticks. We also review new wines we’ve found and love talking about gin, rum and whisky!
