Food blogs Around the World

Sites I like - food

  • Monster Munching
    California Asian, need I say more...the epitome of good eating! Here's another one to put on your list of must consult everyday...it just all looks so delicious and yes, indeed, someway, someday I'm going to go and have lunch in Sunny SoCal.
  • Chow Times
    This is so, so good! and it's Asian too. So in keeping with tradition that means good photos, lots of info and most especially good food! I can't believe I've only just discovered this fab blog.
  • Chubbypanda - The Epicurious Wanderer
    Interesting, informative and thought provoking. Excellent photos (and lots of them too), restaurant reviews and some excellent recipes as well. This is a fairly new blog just started in August and has a decidely Asian (my favorite) flavor.
  • mmm-yoso!!!
    Asian food blogs are the best and Kirk's blog is just outstanding. Based in San Diego this blog has lots of delicious photos and is an entertaining read as well; one of my favorites. Can't wait to get to San Diego. Bravo!

On second thought - lunch

Well I know I said I wasn't feeling well and that I wasn't having much of a lunch today but around 1:30 I had to go out to the pharmacy and on my way home I passed the Greek place.  It just smelled so good so here is today's Greek lunch:

P3290003

An assiette grecque (Greek plate). Anyone who's ever been to Paris (especially around the Saint Michel area) should recognize this. I'm not really up on my food groups but I think it covers all of them: Protein (meat) Veg (lettuce, tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers and carrot), Carbs (wheat, potatoes and bread) and Dairy (the yogurt based tzatiki sauce). Not bad for 6,50 euros.

Here is a close up of the  delicious Greek bread:

and the salad:

Fresh and colorful, and here is the doner kebab:

P3290008

Actually this is more Turkish than Greek but the menu did say assiette grecque; perhaps it is just an effect of globalization.

See you tomorrow for another wonderful lunch.
