Before heading off on our trip to the Balkans, I had read that Slovenia had excellent pizza. This was in part due to the country being so close to Italy.
I pinned a few places in the capital Ljubljana for us to consider trying.
While walking around during our first day in search of one of the shops, we came across Pop’s Place, a restaurant which serves Neapolitan Pizza. Continue reading Finding Neapolitan Pizza Excellence At Pop’s Place- Ljubljana, Slovenia
At the end of June, the Michael W Travels family headed off to El Salvador.
While there, we ate lots of tasty pupusas, the country’s national dish. We were tipped off about a pizza version, the PuPizza which we all enjoyed!
On the way up to San Salvador Volcano (aka El Boqueron), we passed what looked to be a very interesting pizza shop called Squisito. Continue reading A Nice Pizza Surprise At Squisito On San Salvador Volcano!
After visiting the Sarajevo Olympic Bobsled and Luge track, we stopped by Sarajevsko Brewery to check out their museum.

We’re currently a week into a month-long trip around the Balkans. Today, we spent the day exploring incredible city of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
While checking out the Mostar Sniper Tower (formerly a bank), I noticed something familiar or so I thought.
I spotted a restaurant named CFC, not to be confused with KFC. As we walked closer, I noticed the last C looked almost exactly like the Chick fil-A logo. Continue reading KFC or Chick fil-A in Bosnia and Herzegovina? No It’s CFC!

Besides travel, pizza and baseball are a couple of my other favorite hobbies.
Traveling doesn’t always mean getting on a plane or even driving very far. Sometimes, we go on pizza tours, visiting multiple shops in one day. We started doing this more over the past year or so, since we had been grounded during the pandemic.
While I believe New York has the best pizza in the world, great pizza can also be found in states close to home like Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Continue reading Did I Finish Pete & Elda’s XXL Pizza In The Whole Pie Eater’s Challenge?
Ever since the TWA Hotel opened, I’ve been wanting to visit but the timing just hasn’t been right. The last time I’ve been to the building was when we visited the TWA Flight Center during Open House NY.
The hotel offers a lot of fun experiences throughout the year like rollerskating on the runway rink(or ice skating). You can also visit the Twister Room and grab a bite to eat in the Food Hall. Continue reading An Awesome Addition To The TWA Hotel Food Hall: Mister Softee
During our visit to El Salvador, we had to try the national dish of El Salvador, the pupusa.
