If you’ve ever traveled to Asia, there’s a good chance you’ve experienced the glory of the bidet. I used a bidet for the first time a few years back and I’m hooked. In fact, I was so impressed that I bought one for my home toilet. I even bought one for my dad. My review:…
We’ve got another trip through the travels of Mr. Paul Bacon. This time, we’re heading to Nuremberg… On December 26 most of the restaurants are still closed for the Christmas holiday. We asked the hotel for a restaurant that may be open and after they called around they found one that was available. We made…
Fly&Dine Contributor Paul Bacon is back at it with another trip dispatch. This time, Paul checks in from his holiday trip to Germany. First up, the Hofbraühaus in Munich. It’s the winter holiday season and that means travel! I am enjoying a trip with my wife to Munich and Nuremberg since it has been many years…

You may or not know that this Sunday is National Cheeseburger Day. While we can spend all day arguing the merits of a made-up holiday like this, there’s no way to argue with what Delta has chosen to do to celebrate the day.

Chicago, you’re in luck. I’ve gone on record as saying Tortas Frontera is one of the all-time great airport food options and I still believe that. With the opening of Paul Kahan’s Publican Tavern in O’Hare’s Terminal 3, however, there’s a little more competition for the crown of Best Food at ORD. Kahan is currently…
People flying in to LAX from all over America know that there’s an In-N-Out just outside of the airport to satisfy their cravings for a Double-Double Animal-style. We’ve written about it many times here on Fly&Dine — including the trick on how to get a free ride to In-N-Out — but most don’t know that…
I’ll admit it: I can be a petty fool. I’m a middle child and that comes with a lot of baggage. If someone tries to cut around traffic and then merge back in front of me, I don’t let them. If there are three beers left for four people, I will feel absolutely slighted if we…

Just yesterday, the airline announced that they’re adding two great new options to their free snack lineup. You’ll still be able to grab…
We’ve got another foodie travel find from contributing writer Paul Bacon. Enjoy! The Davenport Tower in Spokane, WA is located near the waterfalls, so I decided to take a walk on a sunny and warm afternoon in July. Walking past an open door, the smell of food made my stomach growl. I peeked in the…

While you may be dying to show off your new swimsuit on the beach (and if you are, then you’re clearly better at avoiding chocolate than I am), Australian carrier Qantas is equally as eager to share their new summer menus with the world.
