In a small lane, opposite the Jama Masjid (which is one of the largest mosques in India), in old Delhi, you will find the unimpressive Karim´s restaurant.

If you´re in Paris, be sure to take a stroll in the 6e arrondissement, Saint German de Pres. Not far from my favorite budget hotel, Hotel du Dragon, is the famous Café de Flore. It’s perfect for people watching, a morning coffee or pre-dinner aperitif! Its was the main pre-war meeting place for the french intellectuals, […]
