Bangkok is similar to many Chinese cities. It’s a massive sprawl of ugly apartment buildings and expressways casting the streets in their shadows. It’s still dark at 5 am in the morning after I leave the diesel train and hop into a tuk-tuk, a motorcycle with a ittle carriage welded to the back, for a fast ride towards Khao San Road, the one of the most disgusting places in the world.

I'm a terrible cook, care little for the effort that making interesting food takes, and would be perfectly happy to eat nothing but ground beef all day everyday for the rest of my life. So what am I going to be doing here? My plan is to do a regular series of posts on my diet, the experiments I plan on performing ...
Since there's a blog feature on this site, and I take tons of pictures of food when I eat out, I figured why not try my hand at making a food blog?
