Hush Puppies

It is getting a little cooler in the morning now, I certainly feel that in the air. While I hate to say goodbye to summer, I welcome the cooler weather, too. I guess, after experiencing a heatwave in Europe while we were there this month, air conditioning and cooler weather in the US was very much a welcome relief! Indeed, it is when you travel that you realize how much you miss the comfort of home and certainly aircon!!! LOL. :)

Food and Travel Feature: Prague, Czech Republic 2015

This is part 3 of our series on our European Holiday 2015 covering the month of August (one more post to go!). We have been to England, France and Austria and for this post - the Czech Republic, particularly Prague, is the focus. Right now we are in London and the tour is ending.....it feels kind of sad as I used to live here and have many happy memories. Anyway, let's go on with the post. This is the view of the city on top of the hill at Hradcany. You can also see Charles Bridge. :)

Food and Travel Feature: Austria 2015

We are on our European holiday at the moment so posts for this month will include not just recipes but also travel features about the countries we are visiting. Here are some holiday photos from our trip to Austria. Hope you enjoy browsing! By the way, the above photo is of the Schonbrunn Palace and is featured below, too.

Wagamama's Yaki Soba

There are two restaurants in the UK that we always go back to when we visit England. One is Nando’s (home of the Portuguese flamed grilled Peri-peri chicken) and Wagamama (restaurant featuring modern Japanese-inspired cuisine). Granted that there is Wagamama now in the US, particularly in Boston, since we don’t often go there, we make sure that we don’t miss the chance to visit our favorite branches in London. :)
