Adventures at Sea: Saint Barthelemy and San Juan, Puerto Rico: A Wrap

Wrapping Up Culinary TravelsBy John Peppin, D.O., F.A.C.P.November 30, 2021

The stop at St. Barts was amazing. It is without doubt the most beautiful Caribbean Island I have yet seen however, it is very expensive. Hotels for a 7-day trip run $800 per night to well over $3000. Spending $21,000 for a week in a St. Barts hotel is nothing my pocket book could bear. …

Adventures at Sea: An Ocean Wrap Up

Wrapping Up Culinary TravelsBy John Peppin, D.O., F.A.C.P.November 24, 2021

The ocean has always been a great interest of mine. And the cruise from Rome Italy to Miami Florida gave me lots of time to just sit and enjoy the seemingly endless ocean. Interestingly, the best place to be close to the ocean was on my balcony. Sitting with a glass of wine with a…

Our second stop was Barcelona, Spain. I have been to Barcelona numerous times in the past and it is one of my favorite cities in the world. We didn’t have much time and I wanted to get to the Casa Mile and have lunch. It is about 4-5 miles from the port, but due to…

My travel agent, Debbie Welch of Cruise Insider, came up with an amazing trip, 16 days traveling from Rome Italy to Miami Florida USA. It is quit the adventure, especially with all the COVID stuff that one must go through to travel. But I was able to overcome these things and am having a great…

An Anchovy Adventure

Wrapping Up Culinary TravelsBy John Peppin, D.O., F.A.C.P.November 20, 20212 Comments

OK, I confess, I probably have an anchovy use disorder … The thought of those small fillets, cooked in so many different ways, just makes my mouth water. I have to have them if they are on the menu, and I would pay almost anything (within limits) for the freshest of these little darlings. Unfortunately,…

Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing Chef Rodney Jones at his restaurant in Georgetown Kentucky, Rodney’s on Broadway. He was very gracious with his time and I enjoyed the interview immensely. So much so that I ended up going back that evening for dinner. Rodney started out as a musician and guitar player. He…
