I love Mexico for many reasons, but regardless of where I visit, every trip usually includes a sunset moment, a tequila session, the song Besame Mucho and tacos, plenty of tacos. Not just any tacos either, nope – Tacos al Pastor. What is a Tacos al Pastor? Besides delicious? The taco is actually fusion…Lebanese spices […]

Not Reveling in the Pizza from Revello’s in Old Forge, PA
Old Forge, the (self) proclaimed “Pizza Capital of the World,” is a place I’ve wanted to visit for nearly a decade. It’s been on my list since I first heard about the pizza in 2004 and I finally visited Old Forge and stopped at Revello’s Pizza (voted one of the best in town) for a […]
Postcard-Mexico’s Golden Treasure
Mexico offers many treasures to its visitors. The list is endless. But one of its true golden treasures remains accessible to all- the corn tortilla. On a morning walk through the “pueblo magico” (magic town) Creel in Chihuahua I stumbled upon a Maseca; a place where corn tortillas are made early in the morning (usually […]

When asked to name the most popular ethnic cuisine in Miami most people think Cuban. And those that provide a different answer probably don’t even consider Cuban ethnic but rather native cuisine. During my time in Kendall, Miami I met many Cuban-Americans. Some even told me stories of how their family left a Castro controlled […]
The International Gourmet Festival of Puerto Vallarta
When offered a chance to attend a food festival, I usually jump at it. Offer me a chance to visit Puerto Vallarta, Mexico I defintely jump at it. Offer me a chance to attend a Food Festival in Puerto Vallarta – its a no brainer. It’s just, “When do I need to be there?” Every November Puerto Vallarta […]
Good Food, Good Wine, and a Good Time equals the Perfect Trio
When a German chef receives accolades, I am often impressed. They toast to an orderly “meal time” in Germany. It’s not a food culture. But Bernhard Guth’s resume impresses. He even spent some time at Bouley in New York. (For those not up on the New York scene, it’s on all the lists) And now […]
