A few months ago, HK and I bounced back to the Northern Hemisphere for a good long stint, and we joined our old Berlin crew in Portugal for a week-long bacchanal of epic proportions. A road trip south to sleepy Vila Nova de Milfontes took […]
Moules, mussels, flavour barnacles, call them what you want – these little treasure morsels of seafood joy are gifts that keep on giving in the kitchen. sh.k was indeed founded on an archetypal mussel dish, the famed P.A Mansion Mussels, and […]
