Posted Saturday November 15, 2008, 12:15 pm, Over one day old at Gadling
Filed under: Food and Drink Now that my head is a bit less fuzzy (from drinking six glasses of Joe Bastianich 's Italian wine, topped off by one--and that's one too many--glass of grappa), I want to recap the wonderful wine dinner I had last night at Zinc.

"No Reservations" season 4, episode 11: Laos
Posted Tuesday July 8, 2008, 2:34 am, Over one day old at Gadling
Still scarred by violent memories of the Vietnam War, it is a country largely untouched by the typical tourist trail of Southeast Asia but ripe with beautiful places to visit and delicious new foods to taste. A friendly send-off for a visit to one of the more fascinating places on earth.

Big in Africa: Bizarre foods from across the continent
Posted Monday July 7, 2008, 1:55 am, Over one day old at Gadling
Although the idea of eating Africa's most majestic herbivores might be off-putting to some, antelope jerky is seriously delicious stuff, especially when it's spiced up with peppercorns and hot sauce. Of course, mopane worms aren't chips, but caterpillars - big, honkin' caterpillars.

Galley Gossip: Airline Bashing, bringing the world together

I've now been linked to the worst flight this person has ever had. Perhaps somehow he knew something about the future of aviation we could not imagine back then when things were...well...good, even though back then we still didn't think things were all that great.

Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations starts up season 4
Posted Monday July 7, 2008, 1:55 am, Over one day old at Gadling
Airing on the travel channel every Monday, No Reservations always seemed to me to be a real travel show, shot from the streets in places that you or I might visit, and for some reason, seemed to have a streak of authenticity and candidness to it.

Filed under: Food and Drink, United States, Airlines Perhaps one of the most interesting inverse relationships in travel today is that between airlines and airports. And let's not forget that anchor of time well spent at the airport these days: The upscale bar.

Who eats which kind of ice-cream? What flavor are you?
Posted Saturday July 5, 2008, 12:55 pm, Over one day old at Gadling
The flavor you order tells something about who you are. When people are standing before him, undecided, he'll ask them what they ate last to help them pick a flavor. I usually pick Rum raisin, but the woman working with him said that the Tiramisu is her favorite flavor that has alcohol.

Galley Gossip: Snacks on the plane

I take a deep breath, because I really don't want to tell this guy we have nothing, not one thing, so I make the face again, the I'm-sorry face, and decide to make light of the situation. You never know what's going to happen next and you never know when you're going to eat again.

Posted Thursday July 3, 2008, 2:48 am, Over one day old at Gadling
Rumored to be a creation of Japanese fishermen, this meal was the word on everyone's lips by the time we reached Southern Baja. The first time we ate at a taco stand we tried a little of everything, then we looked around and noticed that everyone had their plates piled high.
