FOODCATIONS: IMMERSE AND INDULGE

“ SO MUCH OF WHAT A PLACE IS AND CAN BE IS SHARED ON A PLATE.” WHEN YOU FIND YOURSELF IN PARIS, and the flavors of the city become so engrained on your palate that the thought of leaving is incomprehensible, picking up a few new skills at the Alain Ducasse Cooking School during your stay just might be the best bet to satisfy your taste buds upon returning home. From French pastry courses that will please the most discerning sweet tooth to a seminar in Mediterranean haute cuisine, the Michelin-star chef’s ultra-modern Parisian facility marks a growing trend in travel experiences that cater to the passionate foodie and teach you to recreate regional tastes long after your journey.

Venues that connect to the world traveler emotionally, especially through their stomachs, provide a way to immerse oneself in a culture through the local ingredients and cooking techniques. With courses suitable for entry level to seasoned chefs, students are guided through the whole culinary experience, starting with a trip to the local market. Traditionally, the extent of food’s contribution to a vacation has been limited to visiting the best local haunts, yet finally, it’s at the forefront for those who want a savory and interactive experience that cuts to the core of a region’s identity with an insider’s guidance.

It’s not just happening in culinary capitals like Paris, however. Around the world, places that haven’t been historically heralded for their gastronomy are stepping up to the plate to leave travelers sated.

For instance, roughly a half hour from Knoxville, Tennessee, in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, is Blackberry Farm, a quaint resort where the beauty and high-end accommodations are surpassed only by their love and appreciation for food. Farm-to-table is the mantra here, as they cultivate such fare as artisan cheeses from their sheep, a range of heirloom produce from the garden, wildflower honey and farm-fresh eggs.

“Travelers want to take something away from their adventures that is useful and expands their knowledge, as well as helps better their life,” says Sam Beall, Proprietor of Blackberry Farm. “Through all of our food-related activities – from cooking

schools and garden walks to breakfast, lunch and dinner – we want our guests to leave with an honest sense of place by using truly local ingredients and a nod to native traditions and techniques. So much of what a place is and can be is shared on a plate.”

It’s all further evidence that for today’s savvy traveler, home-grown food signifies authenticity.

Recognizing this, the Oriental Thai Cooking School at the Mandarin Oriental in Bangkok perhaps best demonstrates just how intertwined heritage and cooking are. Each day, students learn not only how to prepare four regional dishes, but also the importance of presentation and place setting in what’s known as Royal Thai Cuisine. Chef Narain Kiattiyotcharoen, head instructor of the school, explains, “When we teach travelers the art of Thai cuisine, we reveal our real identity to them and show them the diversity of our culture. It is such a great honor for me to showcase our Thai-ness to travelers through our cuisine.”

Now, for an epicurean experience that may fit the more traditional vacation mold, the CuisinArt Resort on the Caribbean island of Anguilla boasts a comprehensive farm that serves as the cornerstone for this food-centric locale. They have the ultra-luxe spa, golf course and tropical beachfront, of course, but their innovative and sustainable approach to growing vegetables and herbs adds a unique appeal. The farm, where they harvest everything from eggplant to bok choy, utilizes a hydroponic system to save water through the use of recirculation and drip irrigation. Classes are available, but for those who place a greater emphasis on the tasting than the cooking process, there are myriad dining options and flavor profiles to indulge in the locally grown grub.

By stepping into kitchens around the world, we open our eyes (and mouths) to new cultures by experiencing them in a way that’s both informative and satisfying. Foodcations allow you to learn new cooking methods, engage with true locals and, best of all, treat yourself to unique flavors as they’re meant to be enjoyed.

THE SMARTWATCH RACE:

TECH MEETS TRADITION APPLE WATCH EDITION | APPLE

THE RECENT LAUNCH OF APPLE’S SMARTWATCH IS BEST summed up as worlds colliding. We’re not referring to the Apple Watch Sport (US $399) or the Apple Watch (US $499).

We’re talking about the one with an 18-karat gold case. The one that starts at US $10,000. The one that puts high-end watchmakers directly in its crosshairs and promises to shake up the watch industry for better or worse. The Apple Watch Edition.

Historically, luxury watches appeared to be one of the few markets impervious to the tech industry’s disruptive innovation.

Handcrafted, bejeweled and enduring, a fine timepiece can be passed down for generations, whereas a tech accessory with a shelf life of a year or two simply cannot. But if there’s one company that could change that, it’s Apple.

CARRERA HEUER 01 TAG HEUER The Apple Watch Edition is an impressive device, uniting craftsmanship and technology. Made from custom gold alloy and a sapphire crystal display, it’s replete with all the apps, fitness tracking and communication possibilities that you will ever need. You can use it as a key for your car or hotel room, make payments via Apple Pay or even control your smart home from your wrist.

While initial earnings have been kept close to the vest, consumer response to the Apple Watch feels tepid compared to other recent Apple unveilings, especially when considering it’s the first new product from the Silicon Valley giant since the passing of visionary founder Steve Jobs, and one can’t help but wonder: did the Goliath of the tech industry step into an arena where it stacks up more like David? Not waiting until it’s too late to find out, some of the watch world’s biggest names are calling all hands on deck to develop a counter punch.

With Tag Heuer and Google announcing a strategic partnership at the 2015 Baselworld in Switzerland, the watch industry’s premier event, comes a best of both worlds scenario, as two of the most established in their respective fields collaborate. It’s fitting that Tag Heuer, the self-proclaimed Swiss Avant Garde watchmaker, is one of the early adopters of the smartwatch movement, and a key focus of their Carrera Wearable 01 is

that it will be the first Android Wear device with upgradeable technology. This means the watch itself will remain constant, unlike the Apple Watch, whose second generation is scheduled to be released before the end of 2015. At the moment, not much is known of the technology in the Carrera Wearable 01, though in a recent interview with tech-centric site Wareable.com, Tag Heuer CEO Jean-Claude Biver indicated it will closely resemble the Carrera Heuer 01 (pictured left). Current expectations have the watch being released before the end of the year, with a 40 hour battery life (more than double the Apple Watch’s 18 hours) and priced around US $1,400, considerably lower than the Edition.

Another Swiss watchmaker tossing its hat in the ring is Breitling, whose longstanding technical prowess and precision has led to an identity deeply rooted in aviation. Their first foray in the smartwatch field comes in the form of the B55 Connected, a timepiece that isn’t going to be measuring your vitals or anything like that, but ultimately serves to improve upon the aviator-specific timekeeping functionalities of their watches by making it all available (and essentially more user-friendly) on a smartphone. Two LCD backlit screens provide an electronic tachometer that allows you to easily calculate the average speed needed to cover a fixed distance, a chrono-flight device records the take-off and landing times (which pilots must record) and the analog hands will automatically adjust to a new time zone, among many more aviator-oriented tools.

There are, of course, big-time brands, such as Rolex and Patek Philippe, who are standing their ground, with no immediate plans to jump in on the tech trend.

A fun hypothetical to consider though, is if the Tag HeuerGoogle relationship proves a success, could it prompt Apple to seek a similar partnership? From this vantage point, the fact that Apple products do not historically appreciate in value combined with the absence of a watch brand name that boasts proven longevity (like Tag Heuer), puts them at a disadvantage.

But, just imagine for a minute, the classic look of a Rolex Daytona merged with the Apple Watch interface. Now, that’s something that could stack up to any competition and stand the test of time.
