Avocados: From Grove to Store

March 5, 2013 blog meet-up

A couple weeks ago, my friend Hannah introduced me a TED talk with a scandalous title: “When Ideas Have Sex.” It’s a short clip, about 16 minutes long. We watched it together while sipping beer and munching oil-drizzled dolmas. I suggest you do that too, because the speaker, Matt Ridley, will bring a fascinating perspective [...]

When my friends turn from Ms. to Mrs.

August 8, 2012 blog meet-up

I’m a person who embraces change—or at least, I always thought I am. I relish a fast-paced life strung by capricious days, each day filled with new tasks and activities. I love traveling and absorbing new sceneries and communities. I rarely visit a restaurant twice. I enjoy journalism because it constantly provides me with new [...]

Hashtag this as first-world problem

August 6, 2012 blog meet-up

I sniffed the odor of death a couple nights ago. Okay, I exaggerate, but at the time, it sure felt like dying. Fellow bloggers, you’ll know what I mean. A kind reader had alerted me that some of my blog posts weren’t showing the images. This being a food blog and all, that just wouldn’t [...]

Being and eating Asian in Los Angeles

July 19, 2012 blog meet-up

After being away from Los Angeles for two months this summer, I’m realizing more and more that I haven’t been exaggerating my insistence that L.A. has the best dining scene. When I went to New York City, I heard raves about how amazing the food is by New Yorkers. And then when I went to [...]

Can I bring kimchi with me on a plane?

June 12, 2012 blog meet-up

I have two suitcases lying in the middle of my room, not yet unpacked. What’s the point, when I’ll be flying back to the East Coast this coming Sunday night? So that’s my good news: I’ve been offered a summer internship with WORLD Magazine!! For four weeks, I’ll be living at the editor-in-chief’s house in [...]

A Culinary Gypsy Caravan at LudoBites 8.0

February 12, 2012 blog meet-up

Long-time readers will know that I eat pretty modestly. Most of the places I visit are low-key, hole-in-the-wall places. I love to “discover” a new cultural dish and as a full-time student, I don’t have the funds to visit a restaurant listed over two dollar signs on Yelp. I mean…well, what kind of eateries would [...]
