Check out Gizmodo’s Taste Test Week
If you are already a Gizomodo reader you’ve already seen the posts, but I thought their Taste Test Week was worth promoting to our readers. All week they linked to food related stories such as iPhone specific food applications, cooking demonstrations and tips, food gadgets and more. I...
Sunday Brunch at Graze Singapore
Our normal breakfast group was a bit thin this week… which was unfortunate for those who couldn’t make it because it was a highly enjoyable meal / experience. Sunday brunch at Graze is something we’ll be returning to enjoy soon.
Epicurean Concept of the Week – Amuse-Bouche
We here at Accidental Epicurean are looking at ways of expanding the reach of our site beyond Southeast Asia. As part of that mission we’re going to start doing a weekly series of “epicurean concepts”…these could be words that you’ll find on a fine dining menu, boutique ingredients,...
Gonpachi in Roppongi, Tokyo (The Kill Bill Restaurant)
Dun Dan Dun! This post should really start with the iconic “Kill Bill Theme” theme song from the movie and play throughout. If you’d like to load it up to play in the background get it here : ) We had just finished watching the Tokyo Giants win...
Dim Sum Brunch in Singapore – Yan Ting at the St Regis
Dim Sum is like Thai food for me… I love it, can’t get enough of it, and find I enjoy it most when it’s served up cheap in some back-alley hole in the wall. I’ve tried Dim Sum in fancier settings, but it always seems to lack the...
Thai Recipe – Yellow Chicken Curry Recipe
I just got the OK from Blue Elephant Cooking School to share some recipes with you. This first recipe was a bit of a surprise for me and also my favorite. Before moving to Thailand I had tried numerous incarnations of Penang, Red Curry, and Green Curry in...
French Dining on Club Street – L’Angelus, Singapore
(This review has two parts as we’ve dined here twice, the first time unfortunately was just with friends and I didn’t have my camera with me. The second visit covers the weekday dinner set menu) The neon Heineken sign visible from the street coupled with twin oversized yellow...
Tokyo Travel – Why I Love this Crazy City of Tokyo
And left Japan kicking and screaming… The first time I traveled to Hong Kong, I fell in love. I had an inexplicable affinity for the place, and on subsequent trips, discovered many new parts that ultimately led to Hong Kong’s classification as my favorite city in Asia. Now...
People Watching on a Typical Sunday at Tokyo’s Yoyogi Park
Japan = Cute. Japan = Cosplay. Japan = Rockabilly? A Sunday stroll through Tokyo’s Yoyogi Park is unlike a visit to any park anywhere else in the world. Sure you can find couples enjoying the day quietly on blankets, dad’s playing catch with their children, hippies whipping about...
Wine Tasting Night a Great Success Thanks to Epicurious, Underground Wines, and Divine MedSpa
Our first event as “Accidental Epicurean Events” went off wonderfully last night. Another big thank you goes out to our event sponsors – Epicurious, Underground Wines, and Divine MedSpa. Helena from Epicurious, Sianne from UW, and Christine from Divine MedSpa were so relaxed, calm, and generally cool and...
Horse Sashimi and Sukiyaki at Hidari Uma in Roppongi, Tokyo
I went to a Thai language school in Bangkok that didn’t use any English, forcing students to comprehend the language in situations rather than memorizing from rote. Our class consisted of Koreans, Japanese, Germans, and many other nationalities… most of whom had little or no English language abilities....
Mexican Breakfast in Bangkok at Coyote Sukhumvit
Before the day I discovered Sunrise Tacos, my intake of Mexican food was limited to two places in Bangkok – Coyote (Silom) and Charlie Browns. Both were decent, but a bit higher in price… and none did what I was craving most, the Mexican Breakfast. Then one day...
