At its best, travel is a transformative experience, not just in the meeting of local peeps, but in the cuisine and beverages we savor. If you follow my Instagram posts, I now realize there are many, maybe too many photographs of my favorite evening cocktail, a Rye Manhattan. A drink, actually introduced to me by a client many years ago at a delectable dinner at Tadich Grill in San Francisco.
One of my most beloved clients is pretty precise about touring schedules: ‘Gwen, the most important time of the day is gathering for cocktails with our family and friends and sharing our memories of the museums or the extraordinary experiences you have organized for us. We end the day at 5 pm for freshening up and gathering for a proper cocktail!’
A toast to that dear client, I adore her!
At the Colony Grill Room in The Beaumont in London, I always order the same scrumptious meal: Rye Manhattan, Avocado Salad and Dover Sole. In an effort to share more travel inspiration, their spiced avocado recipe. The avocados are from Spain I felt they almost surpassed my favorite creamy California Haas avocados.
Sharing more travel inspiration, don’t worry Jannes, we will be back! The Beaumont Hotel in Mayfair, classic style in the grand tradition, The Beaumont recaptures the spirit of old world luxury.
