Let’s Talk Food

Beer & Breweries

Let’s Talk Food brings all the delicious experiences in one place. From the best food I ever ate in Santa Barbara, Tofino, Ireland, Scotland, Las Vegas and many other areas of the world.

I like to eat and the world is an open menu from amazing cooking classes and markets to recipes and stellar restaurants all around this great earth of ours.

This is where you start when you are looking for food and helpful guides on where to eat. As always, if you are brand new to a city the best way to explore the food scene is by food tour!
