Where Chefs Eat on Vacation: Gregory Gourdet's Seafood-Filled Week in Barcelona

The Mount Hood stratovolcano, around two hour’s drive east of Portland, Oregon, is the most transfixing ski destination you’re ever likely to lay eyes on. It’s a perfect snow-topped pyramid, pushing high through the clouds, with a belt of fir trees and pistes that crisscross the forest like strands of a spider’s web. Get closer and you’ll see the pattern is the result of several exciting ski areas: Timberline, Mount Hood Skibowl, Mount Hood Meadows, Summit Ski Area and Cooper Spur. For those who love winter sports, this region always offers another reason to stay longer. 

The festival of lights is almost here and it’s time to celebrate accordingly in New York City. With food, of course. And Hanukkah’s all about the fried treats — latkes, stuffed doughnuts and more will pop up on menus around the city to celebrate the eight night holiday.

Barcelona is Spain's second largest city, with a population of nearly two million people, and the capital and largest city of Catalonia.

A former police cell is perhaps not the most obvious choice of place for a relaxing treatment, but that is where one of London’s leading facialists is found. Previously the Bow Street Magistrate’s Court and Police Station, NoMad London is not only one of London’s most stylish hotels, but it is also home to an ongoing residency by facialist Katie England, who works out of what was once a former holding cell for the Magistrate’s Court found on the first floor of the reimagined hotel.

The Cycladic island of Ios is a rocky, mountainous environment of winding roads sometimes blocked by herds of bleating goats and sleepy villages hugging cerulean coastlines. In the 1960s, backpackers discovered the nearly untouched island and it became known as a hippie haven, hosting all-night beach parties, with a handful of cheap bars operating in the Chora (main town). A few decades later, nearby Santorini and Mykonos began to outshine their neighbor, attracting hordes of tourists each summer and investing in new developments. Meanwhile, Ios only got electricity across the entire island in the 1970s and most residents here are goat herders or farmers. Today, Mykonos has taken the nightlife crown and both it and Santorini have become severely over-touristed. Ios on the other hand, remains a quiet, mostly undeveloped paradise.

I put myself on my first diet when I was 8 years old. My childhood and teen years are littered with memories of restriction and self-judgment. It's not hard to imagine how I developed an eating disorder, or ED. I struggled with restriction, bulimia, binging, and other disordered-eating behaviors for years. Thanks to my privileged access to therapists, psychiatrists, and help from loved ones, I've been in eating disorder recovery for the last 10 years.
