I’m always looking for something healthy to eat and drink, but when you are on a weightloss program things get a lot tougher. I love drinking Yakult. If you don’t know what it is, it is probiotic drink made by fermenting skimmed milk with a special strain of Lactobacillus. This is supposedly a very healthy…

Talking to a Japanese friend about Japanese food and ramen, I cannot but think about taking you to this ramen place I’ve been going to since I was young called “Ramentei.” If you live in Bangkok, I’m sure many of you have heard about this place and have been to it. They have a…

The weather is kinda blue, the sky is cloudy, the rain drizzles. It sounds like a perfect evening for a night out listening to Jazz/Blues. I’ve been in Bangkok for years and heard about this “Saxophone Pub” as the place to go listen to jazz/blues, but never had the chance. Finally, one drizzling evening, I…

I love Japanese food. I can eat it everyday and still not get bored with it. Tonight I feel like having some Japanese Oban Yaki (which are Japanese pancakes with some fillings) so to curve my craving, I will tell you instead about it. It’s incredibly delicious and satisfying.

Since my good friends are out eating at Taling Ping today (which I have to skip due to a bad stomach) I thought I’d write about this restaurant that is a great place to take guests from out of town or a place to have little reunions over authentic Thai food. The great thing about…

Sunday night is here and finally this writer gets to continue on with her blog. The fast few days have just been hectic, tiring and not enough “me” time. There have been some comments that I haven’t been reviewing enough restaurants so tonight I want to share with you a Mexican restaurant that just makes…

If you live in Bangkok, drive, and find yourself caught in rush hour rain, then your usual simple journey back home can take on an entire new life and become an adventure of sorts. An adventure from the seat of your car. Today it took me two hours to arrive home. It usually takes me half an…
