This is a shoutout to the new eatery inside the 99 ranch complex on Clairemont Mesa in San Diego. While not a veg restaurant, they do a super yummy veggie mini hotpot, complete with a litany of sauces and pickled bits to dip in and enjoy with the rice and bubbling veggies. Not being anContinue reading “e & drink in san diego”

camel safari masala
We recently finished a three day, two nights “camel safari” out of the desert city of Bikaner, in Rajasthan, India. Our party consisted of myself, Ryan, two camel men (Sankar and Aridam), and two camels (Kwalu and Moni). There was one camel for pulling a cart of supplies, one camel for riding. Our playgroundContinue reading “camel safari masala”
thali time
Welcome to Rajasthan, a desert state south of Delhi, but still in the north of India. This is a land famous for its ancient network of kings, forts, princes, palaces, and, of course, delicious cuisine. One ubiquitous offering found all over India, but especially here in Rajasthan is the thali. Rather than one dish, thaliContinue reading “thali time”
achchha lagta hai!

Writing about the joys of veggie-voyaging in India is like shooting fishContinue reading “achchha lagta hai!”

Capadoccia is a region in central Turkeythat is well known for several interesting features. Everywhere you lookContinue reading “Capadoccia Days”
A Delicious Day in Istanbul
We have a very limited time here in Turkey, and an even more limited time in Istanbul. Certainly not enough time to dig our teeth into the nitty-gritty details of the culinary wonders, nor enough time to befriend people, go into their homes, and learn their recipes and ways. This is disappointing to me butContinue reading “A Delicious Day in Istanbul”
Noble Canyon & Alpine Brewery
happy love day… Here’s a “fungestion” for you… About a one hour drive from San Diego proper is a trail that takes you through forest, valley, meadow and lake. This is one of those magical spots that I actually hesitate to post about as I love the tranquility and peacefulness of the place, butContinue reading “Noble Canyon & Alpine Brewery”
