I am an avid traveler and would like to show people the beauty of our world through my videos. Hopefully, one or more of you would be inspired to visit the wonderful places that I have visited through the years. My first taste of international travel happened when I got a two-year contract to work in Singapore in late 1983. I was able to save enough money to embark on a European tour with Contiki in October 1984. The tour started and ended in London, visiting France, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, and the Netherlands along the way. This trip further whetted my appetite for travel. Later that same year, I visited Japan and Hong Kong. I moved to the US after Singapore and it took me four years to go back to my most favorite city in the world, Paris, in 1990. Since then, my wanderlust has taken me to many exciting and beautiful places which I want to share with you through this channel.

It's so much fun to re-live the Havana Extravaganza! Thanks, Larry.
nice
that thumbnail was well chosen, Is that sesame oil floating?
beautiful food
🤪 *Promo sm*
I made a similar journey in December. Day trip from Lisbon to see Pena Palace and Quinta da Regaleira. They are both amazing!
Yes they are!
MERCI BEAUCOUP POUR SETTE vidéo ☝️🤩☝️
De rien.
as predicted yet another pretentious restaurant doing the FOAM element .. every single fancy restaurant video on youtube has this silly foam BS..
Very nice video. Thank you for sharing your Morocco trip. We have booked the same tour with Gate1 for September 2024. May I ask if you purchased any or all of the optional excursions? If yes, which ones, and it is worth getting the optional tours?
I took all optional tours except the cooking class. I liked the Fes and Sahara Desert tours. As for Essaouira, the commute from Marrakech takes 3 hours each way and for a non-shopper like me, it was not as enjoyable as the other two. I would have skipped it had I planned to explore Marrakech more beforehand.
Que Bellezaa!! 🇦🇷 ❣❣
Also the other commentor probably never heard of tasting menu and dont understand that such meal are usally way to feeling 2 weeks ago i was in a resturant in florence which has the best service in the world as well as book of 50 pages of wine list including vintage up to 1M euro a bottle 15 pages for water list 10 pages for tea list and so much food that i personally enjoyed that by the end of it you would want to throw up but keep eating cuz is so good
Honestly i am thinking of spending noon-till morning in vienna and was wondering if i do which probably 2 resturant i should eat in
Amador is Vienna's only restaurant with 3 Michelin stars; 4 have 2 and 5 have 1. guide.michelin.com/at/en/vienna/wien/restaurants/all-starred
Probably have lunch at either Steirereck Im Stadtpark or Konstantin Filippou and dinner at Amador.
My daughter and I were in some of the same places, only a few days behind you. I liked your footage. Peace!
Thanks a lot!
What was the $$$ damage?
$420 per person without the wine pairing.
So it's MORE than the French Laundry? Jeez.@@convergenttraveler
It’s an experience, it’s not just food. I’d gladly pay that for the experience.
I watched the sunrise behind temple I from temple II on the spring equinox in the late nineties sometime...before that silly boardwalk got built. stayed a week at the "Jungle Lodge"...is it still in operation? Magnificent city of stone.
Nice place
Nice but wrong music, this isn’t Vienna.
Hard to hear the description of the dishes! Is this an old railroad tunnel? So how were these miniscule iprotions? How much was this overpriced meal?
It used to be a wine cellar and the scrumptious meal costs 365 euros.

Ate there in 2018 when I turned 70! Great place! Lovely setting and absolutely exquisite experience! The menu you show here is different from what we had in 2018.
So beautiful
how wasthe weather in November was it raining a lot?
I stayed for 3 days and there was no rain at all.
It is really helpful video to decide to go this restaurant! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
This seems to be a very interesting and beautiful place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
Thanks for sharing this beautiful video 👍 I hope to visit this place one day and admire its beauty with my own eyes 😊 See you next video
Thank you for your kind comment. I hope that you also saw my separate video on Dubrovnik which is actually part of this tour as well.
The quantity of trucks there is pathetic. A true lack of regulation and control by the park's authorities.
