I like to try to make good use of my time and waiting in line for restaurants isn’t usually my thing. These past two days I’ve been waiting in line for over an hour to have lunch at the same place just because it’s so good. In Japan, I guess that’s what you do if…

Living in Bangkok, I am fortunate to have so many options for good food. From street food to the fanciest restaurants, you can find almost anything to your taste and budget. A few weeks ago, I was fortunate to be invited to savor delicious food by Chef Cayito and days past the taste still lingers…

Sometimes a place so close can seem so far and when you finally get there, you wonder what kept you from visiting sooner. My work this year has given me the opportunity to travel to many South East Asian countries (as some might say “regional” travel) and though most days you miss the comfort of…

Having my own home, kitchen and not so crazy about food as in my fat days, I’ve been eating out a lot less. However, don’t get me wrong, I still go out and enjoy good food. Today my good friend recommended we go try this new place in town called “Chu: chocolate bar and café”…

It’s my last day in Lisboa and I have to say I am starting to miss it a little already. Though the buildings are reminders of former glories and current harsh times are reflected in the state of the buildings, there is a certain charm that grows on you and finds a place of its…

I love the weekend. It’s time for relaxing and for thinking about how to relax. It’s been awhile since I last watched a movie and it’s been an even longer while since I last sobbed watching a movie. Watching a movie on DVD at home where there are not another hundred or so people…
