My Big Fat Face: Intestinal fortitude: The good, the bad and the home-made yogurt

http://www.mybigfatface.com/2011/05/good-bad-and-home-made-yogurt.html

My Big Fat Face. Sunday, May 22, 2011. Intestinal fortitude: The good, the bad and the home-made yogurt. I’ve been a negligent blogger as of late. I’ve got this whole other blog. That I actually get paid to write, and that’s been sucking a lot of my creative attention. That and I’m lazy. It’s great for intestinal health and the flora. And that’s saying something. It's right up there with Rome and Peru. In terms of being one of the great bouts of food poisoning in my life. My first in Asia, in fact. Bough...

My Big Fat Face: First impressions of Australia

http://www.mybigfatface.com/2012/08/first-impressions-of-australia.html

My Big Fat Face. Wednesday, August 15, 2012. First impressions of Australia. I've long known that Australians were serious about food. Years ago, while consoling me about a terrible breakup I was enduring, my friend Holly made me ricotta hotcakes from Bill Granger's cookbook Bill's Open Kitchen. I promptly recovered from the failed relationship and went out and bought the cookbook. I'd pore over it, open-mouthed, entranced by the practically-Asian recipes and the exotic photos of Sydney Harbor. Last nigh...

http://www.mybigfatface.com/2012/07/noodles-salads-and-burma.html

My Big Fat Face. Sunday, July 15, 2012. Noodles, salads and Burma. It's the hip new thing to go to Burma/Myanmar these days. Luckily, I managed to go in November moments before the hordes descended, giving me the right to yawn and say, "Oh, Burma is so. Whenever anyone mentions wanting to visit the country. We started by pointing to what the woman next to us was having, and we gestured that we wanted one too. The perfectly balanced noodle salad, khauk swe thoke,. Made my knees weak with delight. It's.

My Big Fat Face: Larval dinner in Laos

http://www.mybigfatface.com/2012/04/larval-dinner-in-laos.html

My Big Fat Face. Thursday, April 19, 2012. Larval dinner in Laos. One of the less pleasant aspects of getting older is being confronted with one's own inadequacies. As young people, we believe that we're invincible, that we can eat anything. As it turns out, we can eat anything, but we'll then spend months of our lives blogging about how sick we've been. I've been meaning to post these photos (taken by my BFF, Frances. That night I woke up at 3am, stumbled to the bathroom and puked the whole thing up, ba...

My Big Fat Face: Impatient pickles

http://www.mybigfatface.com/2013/02/impatient-pickles.html

My Big Fat Face. Thursday, February 21, 2013. Is one of my all-time favorite cookbooks. It introduced me to a cuisine that I didn't know existed (Japanese food that wasn't sushi or ramen) and to a completely new vocabulary. Within that cookbook, one recipe stood out: Impatient Pickles. Not because I loved the recipe- I didn't- but because of the name. Was it me who was too impatient to wait five days for pickles? Or was it the vegetables themselves, absolutely gagging to be pickled? Maybe it was both.

My Big Fat Face: Cambodia "gastro bloggers"

http://www.mybigfatface.com/2012/04/cambodia-gastro-bloggers.html

My Big Fat Face. Monday, April 9, 2012. Header: BIG FAT FACE. One of most appealing things about living in Cambodia is the occasional bout of "big fish small pond" syndrome. This week I got a taste of it when I was featured in Cambodia's AsiaLife magazine, in a feature on food blogging. Mainly because I write one of the two English-language food blogs in town. Like many other food enthusiasts, her culinary travels were informed by blogs. Eating Asia. For those who want to share their lives in food, creat...
