#37 Namibia 🇳🇦🔥
View recipe: #37 Namibia 🇳🇦🔥Wood-fired flavors from Southwest Africa. We’re finally back to a country whose food culture I honestly knew almost nothing about before starting this project. You’ll see that is a trend for me on many African cuisines, as they tend to be underrepresented in Western food media, very undeservedly so I might add. So to do…

#26 France – Bretagne
View recipe: #26 France – BretagneHello! Welcome back 🙂 This time, we’re back on my home continent.
