Bert Archer

Bert Archer has been a journalist since 1993 and has written for The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star, The National Post, The Washington Post, the BBC, CNN, the Wall Street Journal, enRoute, Toronto Life, Zoomer Magazine, and others. He started writing about food and drink while on assignment in England for The Globe and Mail in 2009 – a tour that, unexpectedly, became all about the beer. Since then, he's written about eating breakfast spaghetti in Haiti for Air Canada's enRoute magazine; swigging Laotian moonshine and eating Lowcountry cuisine for The National Post; finding a piece of cake worth a trip to Washington, D.C.; and finding the only nation on earth that insists on regularly eating food everyone thinks tastes terrible (surprise! it's Iceland).
