For the Love of Curry. Third Place in Travel Cuisine Challenge.
The time I spent overseas in Iraq as an American soldier showed me many things. But one thing I hadn't expected to get out of my time there, was a further introduction to and deepening of, my love for the expansive tapestry of taste that is Eastern cuisine. The opportunity to glimpse what homestyle country cooking is like in a country on the other side of the world.

“Mommy, why did you keep me from this place?” You’ll have to excuse my dramatic words; I was only a kid. I was in the blue ocean. The sun was shining. My family and I were frolicking in the water. I was completely in awe of the island that I had only been to as a baby before then.

My Musings
There wasn't a dining car on the night train from Chamonix to Paris which we realized after leaving the train station. Sadly, after depositing coins for a bag of chips, we received nothing. No chips! The only snack vending machine on the train was broken. Besides being hungry, we didn't sleep soundly in our train seats; but we did manage a few naps. Really, you would have thought traveling by train that falling asleep would come quickly. Wrong! It was a long, long night. Tired and hungry! Of course, we arrived exhausted and starved.

Travel Cuisine: The National Dish of Austria-Weiner Schnitzel Often the simplest food pleasures are surprisingly the best, and no better case could be made than for Austria’s nationally recognized Weiner Schnitzel. The ultimate in comfort foods, Weiner Schnitzel is merely a tender veal cutlet, pounded thin, lightly seasoned, coated with breadcrumbs, and quickly fried in butter and a bit of oil. Add a touch of fresh lemon upon serving and you have gourmet class perfection on a plate.

My Chinese Food Tour
About twenty years ago I went on a package tour of China, starting in Beijing and then heading south through various cities, finishing in Hong Kong. The sights were amazing, and it was incredibly interesting, but for me, the best thing about the tour was the food.

In my twenties I took a spontaneous trip to Thailand. I boarded the plane to Guangzhou, China, and after a lengthy layover, hopped on the next flight to Bangkok. After what felt like innumerable hours spent in burdensome lineups and uncomfortable plane seats, I arrived around midnight; tired, sore, and very hungry.

A regular bubble tea is iced tea using condenced and sweetened milk with chewy tapioca toppings. You will find that many bubble tea shops will have their own twists to this including fruit teas, milk teas and toppings can include jelly, balls that pop and balls you can chew.
