Travel Guides are created with the help of local knowledge and the ins and outs of a destination when visiting a foreign country.

TALK
TALK is our interview section on Food For Thought, where we sit with industry veterans to found out what their latest thoughts are about. We speak to chefs, mixologists and personalities who are here to explain their philosophy when it comes to cooking and day to day life.
THOUGHT
THOUGHT The greek philosophers had a saying: know thyself. Most of the time we lead unhappy lives because we don’t (and never really get to) know ourselves. This is why introspection is important to understanding how we feel. It is not enough to go through life coasting without truly understanding ourselves. We need to understand our intentions and motives for doing the things we do. Your words should coincide with your actions, and your actions should coincide with your emotions. Here, we explore on the ideas about self knowledge and how we can try to better our destructive habits and learn how to cultivate good ones.
