khābo ?

That name takes us all the way back to 1985, when I first saw the light of day in Calcutta (India). Unfortunately, my circumstances there were entirely different from here, and my most basic need was constantly at risk. Therefore:
`I am hungry` or ‘khābo’.

As a food detective, I use khābo to discover unique locations where we can enjoy delicious food.

For that reason, I started my journey into the culinary world years ago. After all, I absolutely love good food. Moreover, I truly believe that food has the power to bring people together, which inspired me to share my experiences. This food blog is the realization of my desire to connect the right people with the right tables.

Bert, nice to meet you.

Adventurer, omnivore, and foodie. My greatest joy lies in discovering new dining spots and meeting inspiring people, then sharing their stories. Through khābo, you’ll find my personal take on the gastronomic impressions I gather along the way. This journey is far from over. With great enthusiasm, I continue to explore unique restaurants and share them with you, the reader of my blog. After all, our shared love for good food connects us. I passionately tell you about my favorite spots and show you through photos and reviews why these places deserve a visit.
