We spent three weeks in Europe this summer, travelling across London-Brussels-Amsterdam-Paris-Luzerne-Interlaken-Milan-Venice-Florence-Rome-Ibiza-Barcelona. Besides searching for great monuments, museums, and churches, we were obviously constantly on the hunt for great food. It would be tough to talk about our 21-day tryst with the cuisines of Europe, so see our journey through this photo blog.
We have also tried to give our quick overview of the food scene in each of the city and the not-to-miss stuff
