Now that I am back from my trip in Europe (Prague, Amsterdam, Vienna, Salzburg, and Budapest), I thought of some food related things that really stood out to me in these five cities. Some of these observations are soon-to-be habits that I want to develop at home, but others are just basic parts of European…

Seriously, Ramen…………In Czech Republic?
“Ok everyone, where do you want to go for dinner tonight?” I say. “How about ramen?” replies my cousin Christina (CC), a fan of Asian food. “But, maybe we should try something more Czech-ish. I mean, we’ve already had ramen twice and Vietnamese cuisine once,” I try to explain. “We should still get ramen,” CC…
Great Market Hall Has It All
Hello from Europe! Vienna, Austria to be exact. A few days ago (in Hungary), I visited this amazing destination along the Danube River. This location just so happened to be the well known supermarket known as Great Market Hall. I know I gave a lot of kudos to the Borough Market in London, but after…
Summer Fruits
Summer fruits are back! Peaches, plums, and more are starting to sell at local farmers markets all around town. 80% of my favorite fruits come from this season. I don’t know about you, but summer fruits are the best! Delicious summer fruits include peaches, plums, nectarines, strawberries, mangoes, cherries, papayas and more. I have learned…
Triple B for the Dub
I know burgers are good, but have you ever thought of substituting that tasty patty for a handmade veggie burger? I didn’t like the idea myself in the beginning, but I soon changed my mind when I bit into a wonderful black bean onion burger. Let me tell you, it tastes like healthy mashed potatoes…
Hot? Try These.
Man, what a hot week it has been. I mean, yesterday I think the sun stayed out till 8:45 P.M and guess what, it was still decently hot! Not saying that my first go to option is food when I am hot, but I would like to share some tasty foods that might cool you…
Originated from Taipei….. Din Tai Fung!
I’m guessing that a lot of you LOVE dumplings. If so, then take one night off and try Din Tai Fung, a famous Chinese dumpling house with exceptionally superb dishes. After you exit this fine Asian style restaurant, you’ll never want to try P.F Chang or Panda Express EVER again. Actually, you probably don’t want…
Ice Monster (Really Is!)
Just think of the words ‘Ice Monster’ while closing your eyes. What images come to mind? Maybe a giant brick of ice carved into a statue of a monster? Who knows? If you looked at my last post, the hint is at the bottom. What is the place I visited known for? Very hot weather! Hmm,…
Help at Yelp
Whenever my family and I get into one of those situations where we don’t know the best restaurants to eat at, what do we do? Go to Yelp. That’s right, I found Yelp so useful that I wanted to figure out how it worked! If you don’t know this helpful website, it is a review company…
BANG BANG AT TO-BANG
There aren’t many Korean restaurants like To-Bang, where both the food and service are stellar. If you dine at To-Bang, the food keeps on coming. I mean, just as I sat down, there was already food grilling and appetizers spread out on the table. My favorite types of restaurants are the ones where you…
