Collected Writing

Best known as a food and travel writer, David has written on luxury, hospitality and geopolitical subjects. He has travelled the globe, from war zones to hotspots, writing observant, narrative-driven features that uncover the truths of places. Fierce and compassionate in equal measure, these cuttings bring together pieces from near and far. Whether in London, Cairo, Kansas City, or Beirut, with the glitterati in Dubai or the ruins of tsunami-hit Sri Lanka, he pinpoints a story’s heart and makes it unforgettable.
