Chocolate Heaven
We arrived into Bariloche - Patagonia and we were surrounded by chocolate!
In the 1800's, Austrians and Germans looking for a better life settled in Bariloche, a beautiful town nestled in a valley surround by the Andes close to the Chile border. Bariloche's chocolate history began after World War II, when some of the European immigrants began making chocolates at home. Today There are many chocolate shops and chocolate supermarkets offering a huge range of gourmet chocolates. We couldn't resist buying a few chocolate bars to make our own selection boxes, which we thought would last a while. Too be honest, they didn't last long :) Yum!!!!

To do in Palermo!
In love with the trendy Palermo District.
Amazing eateries, cafes, deli's, restaurants, boutiques, cute residential townhouses, cobble stone roads and a late nightlife!
Oui Oui
As the name suggests a cute french style cafe. A great selection of sandwiches, salads, juices, coffee and if this is not inviting enough there is a table decorated with fresh pastries, biscuits, muffins & cakes! For all Frankie Magazine lovers, this is the cafe stop for you.

We spotted this amazing Cupcake shop. I just had to go in and try one! Based around the 50's, these delicious cupcakes have a variety of flavours and toppings. A definite for the sweet tooth amongst us!!!! Thats me!

Need a fancy fresh salad, gourmet sandwich or a refreshing juice lemonade? This is the place to go. A hotspot for locals for catch ups and little hipsters.

We arrived to a long queue of eager people waiting to get a table. We were recommended this restaurant from a friend of friend of ours who had said it was an extremely popular place for dinner. We waited 45mins, but time flew as they served champagne and tapas while we waited! Apparently a regular thing. Of course everyone didn't mind waiting...while sipping on champagne!!! After a few glasses we finally had a table. Amazing service, excellent steak and an extensive selection of wine. We left more than satisfied.
