Recommendations
I specialize in providing curated food and drink recommendations for travelers visiting Paris, Tokyo, and Kyoto. My aim is to enhance your culinary journey by guiding you to the best eateries, cafes, bars, and hidden gems these cities have to offer.
From the quaint bistros of Paris , to the bustling izakayas of Tokyo with their delectable sashimi and sake, and the traditional tea houses of Kyoto offering unique tea experiences - I cover it all.
My recommendations are not just about pointing you to popular spots; I take into account your personal tastes, dietary preferences, and budget to ensure a tailored experience that aligns with your expectations.

ABOUT
Born and raised in Paris, I have lived most of my life in the French capital.
I considered myself to be food obsessed, as I spend most of my free time looking for great places to eat and drink. I love sharing my favorite spots, it brings me joy to know that others will be able to have a good time as well.
I’ve lived in Tokyo and visited Kyoto countless times, so I know some amazing spots to eat in both cities—especially ones that are great for tourists! In fact, I even wrote a guide featuring 160 incredible places to dine, called Délicieux. If you’re curious, you can find it on Amazon!
You can find more restaurants reviews on my Instagram account alba.lostinfood.

Questions

Yes! In fact, many of our customers book multiple travel creators for help with various aspects of their trip. For example, you can have a consultation call with one creator, but then book another to plan and organize your itinerary.
