Foody Friday: Dal Baht Power, 24-Hour Dal Baht is simply what Nepal lives on. It’s the energy of the country, it’s the fuel that fills the bellies of the mountain giants, it’s delicious, and it’s every budget travellers dream.

Foody Friday – Thai Pineapple Fried Rice
Foody Friday – Thai Pineapple Fried Rice This week’s Foody Friday is perhaps one that was chosen because I cannot look at the image of it in on my camera without intricately describing to someone how not only does it taste amazing, but to be served a dish in a pineapple is just good ol’…
Foody Friday – The Pad Thai Diet
Forget Thailand, when I’m back home in Canada I often get a craving for Pad Thai from the local Thai Cuisine – but in Thailand it’s a whole different story. There are literally days when I will pack down a solid 4 helpings of this delicious dish in the span of about 6 hours. Pad…
Foody Friday – Vietnam’s Banh Mi
This week’s Foody Friday will feature a dish that I indulged in at least twice daily, if not more. It’s a perfect breakfast, lunch, dinner, and late night snack. It’s absolutely delicious, it comes in multiple varieties, it’s available on virtually every street throughout Vietnam, and it should never cost more than a dollar –…
Foody Friday – What’s Good Pho You?

It’s the staple food in every major, minor, and one shop town throughout Vietnam. Pho,…

Balian Beach or Lalang Linggah in Bali, Indonesia is easily my favourite spot on the whole island. About an hour and a half drive from Kuta you find this quaint little surf village. The people are friendly, full of smiles, not heckling you to buy their many similar knock-off souvenirs, and always willing to lend…
Foody Friday: Nana’s Kitchen (Kuta Beach, Lombok)
Kuta Beach in Lombok is vastly different from its Balinese counterpart. Although slowly gaining popularity, this little stretch of multiple beaches split up by a few headlands is relatively untouched and not tainted by inflated prices and quiksilver surfing boutiques. In recent years it seems the locals have started to recognize the increased tourist influx,…
Foody Friday: Eating Cheap in Bali, Indonesia
Perhaps one of the best things about Bali, Indonesia, and likely all of Indonesia is the food; it’s plentiful, it’s cheap, it’s spicy, full of flavour, and you’re always served a massive plate. Like most Asian food, dishes in Indonesia are typically mixed with either rice “nasi” or noodles “mie”, and the selection is a…
