Columbia Flower Market

  Sunday, my sister and I decided to drop by the flower market to buy some flowers. We did not go very early in the morning, and it was super crowded! But we managed to find some deals and I got some nice pictures. I didn’t feel all Eliza Doolittle-like (that was in Covent Garden…

Wanderland

  I managed to see the Hermes exhibition at the Saatchi gallery and it was a surreal and exciting experience! I really loved them all – the partial Alice in Wonderland theme (the tea sets, the huge doors and the surrealness to the experience) but my favourite has to be the Parisian Cafe themed room….

Food Journey of London

It has been a whirlwind few weeks! I love travelling, and I am so happy that I was able to visit my sister in London and Prague! To keep in line with the food theme of my blog, I am going to compile pictures of some of the food that I have eaten on this…

April-May Travels: Away

I have been away for a few weeks. It’s been a whirlwind few weeks – I went to Prague, and stayed in London, visiting my sister and my parents. I watched a play, Man and Superman with Ralph Fiennes and Indira Varma. Went to a Malaysian food fair at Southbank, and went to a lot…

Boudoir Nail Bar

  (This happened while I was in Malaysia, in January 2015) It was the day before my brother’s wedding reception, and my sister and I decided to have a mani-pedi with our new sister-in-law in Bangsar. This place is great, the service is unbelievably good. When we arrived we were escorted to our seats. They…

Happy Birthday!

It was my birthday a few days ago! I went to a bar called A for Athens for birthday drinks, and I went for a hike-picnic too. Here are some pictures from my celebration.   That is me blowing the candle on my birthday cake, while I was at A for Athens. It’s a great…

Terry Pratchett: Nanny Ogg’s Cookbook

Today, a great man – author of the famous Discworld series of books, died. Death has led him away. I haven’t been able to stop crying, like I have known him personally. It’s rather odd. But I do feel like I know him personally. His books kept me company and hopeful during the darkest periods…

Hello world! (Again!)

I want to blog more, and not just about what I cook. It seems to be counter intuitive to write about my travels (that involve eating local food) and have them published in 2 different blogs on to 2 different platforms. This an attempt to compile my thoughts, ideas and photographs into one easily accessible…

Greek Feta and Yogurt Dip

  This started out as an experiment on what to do with leftovers that I either had to throw away or salvage to make it into something edible. I had a few chunks of feta leftover at the bottom of my huge plastic package of feta cheese and a few tablespoons leftover strained yogurt in…

Malaysia in January – Food Journey

#makanmakanayin This is not a recipe post. I was in Malaysia from the 13th to the 27th of January of this year, for my brother’s wedding reception. This is a food journey of those 2 weeks while I was there – rather incomplete since I didn’t exactly take pictures of everything I ate while I…

Bedrooms

I have read about this installation last year, as it was first presented at the 13th Venice Architecture Biennale. What a surprise for me to find that I can actually see it now, as it is brought back home in Athens. It is presented at metamatic:taf in the city centre (Monastiraki). The venue was very unique…

Kawaii

      Here are a few photographs of an exhibition I went to see recently. Its theme was ‘Kawaii’, meaning cute in Japanese. Enjoy the photographs!
