Ross Forder, Founder and Director of Halo Burger | #TCTalks Episode 53
Episode 53 of tikichris Talks finds me in Brixton having a chat with Ross, Forder, founder and director of Halo Burger, the world’s first “bleeding plant-based burger joint.” During the interview, I ask Ross why his burgers taste so good, whether it’s possible for meat eaters to enjoy vegan burgers, and how he envisions the future of his very scalable Halo Burger concept.

Unsung Cities | Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Going with Pittsburg for the start of this new series was a no-brainer. I had a great time there in September and would not be averse to making repeat visits. The blank stares I’ve received from people here in London when I say I was recently there (and loved it) suggests the city has a way to go before shaking off any unsung status. Continue reading

Vinegar Pies and Burgers Stacked High: The Most Delicious Side of Pittsburgh (Metro)
Pittsburgh had been on my radar for the past couple of years as an ever-improving dining destination, so I was glad to have the chance to see what the fuss was all about for myself. As I saw it, the food and drink scene was fiercely hyper local, with eateries concerned more about pleasing regulars than appealing to out-of-towners and destination diners. That said, showing up from foreign shores as I did, I was received with a warm welcome everywhere I ate, and each meal came with the feeling that I was not going to be allowed to leave unsatisfied. Indeed I never did. Continue reading

Charleston, South Carolina | Blackbeard’s Wake
I learned about Blackbeard’s blockade and all sorts of local lore during a guided tour with captivating storyteller Eric Lavender of Charleston Pirate Tours. As informative and insightful as he was hilarious in his deadpan delivery, roaming around some the city’s most historic and beautiful streets with Eric in his full pirate garb was a great way to spend a morning – and an activity I’d recommend to anyone visiting Charleston.
