French Salted Caramel Chocolate Tart

I have a tendency to overdo it when I travel. I get excited and want to do everything. The more guidebooks and blogs I read, the more plans I make. My friends and family remind me that “You can’t do everything” and I politely ignore their advice. This was the case during my last trip

Chouquettes

Chouquettes or French Sugar Puffs, are an easy and delicious dessert or anytime treat. Simple to make but impressive!

During my junior year of college, I spent a semester studying in Toulouse, France. There were a few Canadian students in our study abroad group, and with the advantage of French as their first language, they seemed to figure out the city much quicker than we did. It took us three days to get our

I was never happy with the standard witch or princess and requested oddball costumes such as a drive-in waitress on roller skates, Carmen Miranda, and a flamenco dancer. The Carmen Miranda costume was the most memorable.

I unabashedly love pumpkin. Fall is my favorite time of the year and a major reason is because pumpkin is back in season. While I only drink one or two pumpkin spice lattes per year, I could eat pumpkin muffins, cookies, rolls, cakes, and other baked goods every single day. A few weeks back, I shared my

Cream Cheese Coffee Cake | The Hungry Traveler | www.thehungrytravelerblog.com

Take a look at the cream cheese coffee cake above and you’ll notice that it isn’t perfect. Here’s a closer look so you can see what I’m talking about… I sprayed my pan well, waited for the cake to cool, and used an offset spatula to loosen the edges.  Even though I did everything right,

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to meet chef Daniel Boulud at the IACP (International Association of Culinary Professionals) Conference in Washington D.C. He was at the conference for Jacques Pepin’s 80th Birthday Celebration and was wandering around mingling with guests during the party. With Daniel Boulud in Washington DC When I realized his

Every time I travel abroad for extended periods of time, I find myself craving certain foods that are mainstays of my diet back home. When I spent a summer in Asia, I craved Chipotle, fresh salads, and Cracker Barrel (my guilty pleasure). When studying in France, I craved Asian and spicy foods and, yet again,
