By admin on July 10, 2013
I guess with summer in full swing, it’s natural that I have been asked what I will be doing during my summer vacation and if camping will be one of those activities. Well I can tell you this much, it has been a couple of years that I have gone out and partaked in the joys of camping.
Years back I vowed to never step foot in a tent unless it was located right in front of a hotel…seriously. The idea of camping was for ‘others’. I couldn’t see how camping could be enjoyable especially when I was envisioning mosquito clouds at the forefront, horse flies that resembled small birds just waiting for me to distracted so that they could do what they do best – take a nice bite out of me. The thought of sleeping on the ground was mind blowing to say the least and lets not forget the outhouse (mind you spending my childhood in Korea, the whole outhouse thing really wasn’t so bad). All that being said, I finally agreed to go camping and wouldn’t you know it I really enjoyed it…even with the mosquitoes. There was something to be said about having a relaxing meal by an open fire, sleeping under the stars, listening to the sounds of hundreds if not thousands of frogs mating by a lake – it was if anything very tranquil. So before you knew it, still being a ‘newbie’ at camping I was introduced to ‘portage camping’ at Algonquin Park.
|
| Portaging |
For those of you not familiar with this, Portage or portaging is the practice of carrying water craft or cargo over land, either around an obstacle in a river, or between two bodies of water.
In my case it meant canoeing to one island, carry the canoe through a dense forest and then canoe to another island till the marked destination was located. What I failed to mention to you is the fact that from the start of my portage journey, I was also carrying what seemed like a two tonne knapsack that held everything. Now when I say everything I mean the tent, sleeping mattress, food and food accessories like pots and pans and whatever other outdoor gear that was needed for that trip. The icing on the cake while trekking from one island to the next was having an array of insects doing their best to bite me but I found solace in knowing that I had packed some bug repellent and not just any repellent…good ol’ Deet in the highest concentration that I could get my hands on. Well the camping gods must have had a field day with me as the Deet was in my knapsack but all the way at the bottom…how convenient. So let’s just say the bugs had a feast at my expense. Looking back at my portage experience it was one I will never forget. There are so many memories and so many stories to tell…from the water filtration nightmare that I had to endure in order to drink contaminate free lake water, experiencing first hand that a lighter is your best friend when it comes to leeches (I still have goose bumps thinking back on that one) to fishing for hours only to catch poor sunfish – no gourmet meal there….but I digress.
I have since retired any notion of going camping till recently, when I was introduced to glamping.
Glamping (glamorous camping) is a growing global phenomenon that combines camping with the luxury and amenities of a home or hotel. Also called boutique camping, luxury camping, posh camping or comfy camping, glamping allows travelers to experience nature without the hassle of finding camp space, carrying their tents, and erecting and taking down their own tents. Lodgings at a glamping sites (glampsites) include structures such as yurts, tipis, pods, bell tents, safari tents, tent cabins, and tree houses. Glampsites range in price from as little as $50 per night to thousands of dollars per night, depending on the level of luxury. Sites offer amenities such as fresh bed linens, en suite washrooms, food service, private verandas, and, most importantly, direct access to the great outdoors.
Now glamping seems to be more up my alley. In all fairness I can at least say that I tried and experienced the real ‘camping’ and now that I am older and much wiser….I say hello to camping with style!
Depending on the destination, amenities vary widely in the glamping packages. The large majority of chichi glamping venues actually provide air-conditioning, toilets, heated showers, and even Wi-Fi. “With all the comforts of a top-notch resort, glamping appeals to a broader audience and has even been dubbed “recession chic” because of its (relative) affordability. It’s the ultimate travel compromise — and one where everybody wins. Outdoorsmen can get their nature fix while those of us who like to relax on vacation can still be pampered”. It’s all nice and dandy that glamping provides all these amenities but I am more concerned about the food. I learned that food is definitely part of the posh glamping experience. Some destinations have “on-site gardens, resident chefs that will add gourmet touches to the regional cuisine making glamping a more exotic and authentic culinary adventure than what you would have at even the fanciest of chain hotels”.
Glamping may seem a bit bourgeois but when you take into account that it caters to the two main activities that you are interested in: travelling and eating good food, how can you go wrong?!
This new activity has been in such popular demand that it has packages all around the world, from Africa to Australia, New Zealand to New York. And with such locales comes with it diverse activities be it a safari, dog-sledding, wind-surfing, or spending a weekend cooking with the pros, there’s a glamping package that will fit your budget and like the glamping packages state…there’s a package to fulfill your vacation fantasies.
Below are some destinations that offer glamping packages…just to entice you even more.
Enjoy!!

It helps when an interesting destination is discussed and tasty dishes are shared!✈️🍽
Big thanks to @phillydiscover for informing me on the unique attractions that Philadelphia has to offer and to @playfoodwine for their exceptional hospitality!😋
A delicious fish cake followed by the braised beef cheek and ramp gnocchi hit all the right notes. However, I couldn`t help myself from indulging on their grilled Sourdough Bread With Caramelized Butter...Ridiculously ADDICTIVE 🔥 😋😍
Looking forward to discovering new regions! 😊

A recipe for tasty success - this is what A Taste for Life Ottawa is all about.
Last evening, generous restaurants like @faunaottawa opened their doors to patrons who dined and donated to support people living with HIV in our communities.
What more could you ask for?! Stellar dishes while supporting a great cause!!☺️
Fresh meaty Malpeque oysters 🦪🦪 and tasty tempura mushrooms 🍄 as appetizers to a mouth-watering meat fest. Say hello to a 80 day dry aged ribeye for 2 and the tastiest duck breast I`ve ever had!!😲😋😋😍
Because those dishes weren`t indulgent enough, a basque style cheesecake had to be tasted!!😂😋
A great cause and annual tradition that I`m proud to support and be a part of! ❤️

Learning about new destinations and different cultures is always a blast! 😃
Several evenings ago, I had the pleasure of being invited to the Embassy of the Czech Republic😍
Learning about their culture, their unique travel experiences, and surprisingly, how inexpensive this country is, when compared to other European destinations, is always good💰💰
To start the Czech Tourism event, guests had the pleasure to hear from Czech Republic Ambassador of Canada, Martin Tlapa.
Tasty libations and Czech dishes were enjoyed by the guests. Even though I enjoy my 🍾 bubbles, I enjoyed tasting Czech`s prized beer 😉🍻
On the bucket list to discover✈️✈️

Kathā means story in Sanskrit, and with each course, a story about the dish was shared with the guests. This interactive approach provided a cultural and personal background for each dish.

Friday night, I had the privilege of attending the 2024 Canadian Culinary Championships - Mystery Wine Challenge - People`s Choice Award🥇🥇@greatkitchenparty
.
Congratulations to all the chefs involved in this intense competition. The chefs needed to create a dish to pair with the mystery wine. Each chef was given a tricky budget of $550 for the 250 guests. I was witnessing creativity at its best!!😋
.
The winning dish🥇 (centered in the middle of the photo) was created by JP Dublado: Red Deer Resort and Casino, Red Deer AB
Dish: beet & soy cured albacore tuna - ponzu gel - tomato water - puffed wild rice - beet green oil
.
Amazing talent from all the chefs as they paired with the mystery wine (a 2021 Lailey Vineyard Zweigelt)🍷🍷

A classic is always a classic!🤩
.
@alssteakhouse has been serving food lovers steak, seafood, and tantalizing martinis since 1967!!! Just incredible! 🥩🍤🍸
.
As an appetizer, I must say their calamari was outstanding, and believe it or not, their portion was unlike any other eatery - there was so much!! 😮
.
And now, for the main attraction - their 14oz Rib-eye steak. The flavour of this steak was a melt-in-your-mouth gift! I couldn`t stop eating it. I forgot how delicious their steaks are. With their sides and salad with their signature garlic dressing, it was a real feast, to say the least.😋
.
I`m already looking forward to my next visit...like I said, when a classic is this tasty, any excuse to visit is a good one‼️

Exploring different regions of the beautiful island of Antigua🏝🏝🐚🐚
Breathtaking panoramic views from Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout, and gun battery was such a visual treat!😍

Afterward, a tasty seafood lunch at the Mainbrace restaurant, located at the @copperandlumberstorehotelanu was needed. We are talking about delicious conch fritters, spicy shrimp and avocado sushi stack, and Mahi Mahi trio seafood salad - YUMMY!! 😋😋

The Devil made me do it! 👹😉
.
Antigua’s rich history and spectacular topography provide a variety of popular sightseeing opportunities.
.
One of those stunning sightseeing opportunities is the Devil`s Bridge. The sight and sounds of this natural wonder are something else. 👹🌊
.
Natural blowholes around the arch shoot up water and spray, caused by the Atlantic Ocean waves. Simply beautiful and capitavating and yet dangerous if too close to the blowholes.😲😍

To discover any new destination, I need to explore and experience their local dishes and eateries. 😋😋
.
Big thanks to @eat_n_lime_food_tours and to the @antiguaandbarbuda tourism board for providing me such a tasty treat!!🤗
.
Eat N Lime`s motto resonates with me so much...`We are hanging out and chilling, enjoying eachothers company with good food` - This is my happy place!😍😋
.
The delicious food tour started in Saint John, the capital of Antigua and Barbuda, at the Heritage Quay Complex, where one can easily see all the cruise ships coming in and offloading their passengers.
.
I had the pleasure of tasting these local treats during the food tour:
1) Island Bhive: shrimp fritters with garlic sauce - so delicious 😋 🦐
2) Quin Farara Liquor Store: Rum tasting and learning how to make an Antiguan Old Fashioned cocktail with their 5-year-old English Harbour Rum.🍹
3) Roti King: a very generous roti that was packed with flavour: chickpea bread, potatoes, chicken, Indian curry, turmeric, and ginger.
4) Brownies Bakery: well-known for its unique bread offerings. Fun fact: it`s also a well-known hangover dish.🍞😉Tracey Ann, our informative and engaging Eat n Lime Food Tours guide, showed us Brownies Bakery`s famous bread - cinnamon butter and cheese.
5) Patti Delight: Jamaican patties with a twist. Jamaican beef patty with bacon, cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce. More please!!😋😋
6) To wash down all this delicious food, we stopped at One Stone Ital Shack - a Jamaican rasta shop known for their fresh fruit juices. Passion fruit for the win!! Tasted amazing and truth be told, I mixed my leftover juice with some local Rum as my afternoon cocktail.🍹😉
.
I highly recommend taking part in food tours when discovering new destinations as you not only learn about the culture but also learn how food plays an integral role in the history of the specific region. Eat N Lime`s food tour was exceptional - great memories from this excursion. 😍🤗

This uber light yet rich at the same time meal is nothing but DELICIOUS!
