I think my trip in Hong Kong has been defined by limitless amounts of good food. Like being in NYC Chinatown but much much better. After what seemed like a 15 course dinner, I wandered about a few hotels along the river: The Bank of China And then my brother Linus...
by Calvin Sun | Dec 18, 2010 | Blitzkrieg!!!, Fit for Foodies, Hong Kong, How's the weather?
UPDATE: I added some videos of the drive in and through Hong Kong – Out of the Airport and into the Maw I have to say, the 60ºF weather here is a welcome respite from the biting 20ºF I experienced right before leaving NYC. It’s funny to see so many people...

Nothing I can write about my last country on this journey will do this subcontinent any justice. This isn’t a place to visit or fetishize; it’s a place that just is, and demands for you to just be. FOOD Home cooking – everywhere You just...

Singapore should have been our intermediary between the Western world and the in-your-faceness of Southeast Asia…but instead we saw it as a reminder of the excesses of this place called the U.S. of A. Convenient and thoroughly designed subway systems, speedy...

From beaches to mountains, from villages to megacities. This is the diverse face of Indonesia, where thinks look a little like what Earth should look like, and where sometimes you just feel like you’re on Mars (or at Shangri-La). It begs exploration, as it...

It might just be the easiest country on the Southeast Asia circuit you’ll travel to. Boasting diversity in both ethnicity and religious tolerance that might hint that of major cities in the United States, Malaysia creates a nice fruit salad of Malays, Chinese,...

Thailand. Consider it famous, consider it infamous: It’s the dream tourist capital of Southeast Asia. From the quieter “Rose of the North” in Chiang Mai to the cramped hustlin’ n’ bustlin’ of Bangkok, Thailand has something for...
