Lebanese Food

I had the chance to lunch with a fellow American in Bangkok whom I have known since my first month here. We ate at a great Lebanese Restaurant called "Beirut" and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for Lebanese fare in the city. Here are some pics:

Stuffed Grape Leaves / Hummus / Pita Bread / Condiments

Lebanese Salad (Fatoosh)

    This looks pretty authentic. I see hummus, kibbeh, and fatoosh. How did it taste

      It was pretty good really. The Kibbe was a bit dry inside because it was from a special items menu and I think not made to order that day but we also had kofta and grilled eggplant and everything tasted great.

My Adventures in Asia

Image
This blog is simply a collection of my experiences in Asia. I left the USA in 2014 at age 56 to explore a bit of the world and to broaden my horizons. So far I have not been disappointed in that decision. I have lived in both Malaysia and Thailand (my current home) and have also visited Laos and Cambodia. Many of my experiences may seem a bit boring because I am not really here for 'extreme travel' or bungee jumping off cliffs just to say I have done it.

My home base for now is Bangkok, Thailand in a district called Thonburi which is on the west side of the Chao Praya River.

Having said that, it has a few disadvantages, the main one being the lack of a dedicated kitchen. For most dwellers of these types of buildings, it is not a big deal because almost everyone eats out or buys prepared meals readily available on the street. I also do this but I love to cook and also want to control the healthy eating aspect of my mealtimes. Recently I have made some progress in setting up an impromptu kitchen area with a new toaster oven which makes my life easier and a lot more enjoyable. I also have recently acquired a small love seat/sofa to compliment my 2 cheapo plas...

Lumpinee Park

Lumpinee Park is the "Central Park" of Bangkok. I try to go at least once a week to exercise and to walk around as it really is a beautifully landscaped park and offers a great respite from the noise and hustle and bustle of Bangkok.
