  1. I loved Vietnamese Che (a sweet dessert soup, the one I tried had sweet potato) Really comforting and unusual! All of these look great though (except for the bugs, which just aren’t my cup of tea, not quite brave enough for that!)

    • I haven’t tried bugs yet either…I would like to say I could easily stomach them lol but I guess the real test will be when actually faced with it. Will keep you updated :D

  2. I enjoyed Japanese food a lot and found it very special and unique, the Thai dishes were pretty good too especially the spicy papaya salad! :)

    • I have to travel through more of Asia; they possible have the best cuisine in the world!

  3. How about the heart of the Mediterranean one Friday ? I love your posts !

    • Thanks Lea! Love that idea for a post! Will start going through my photos to see what I can come up with!
