Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

French Riviera/Northern Italy Holiday

Sorry for the long absence from this blog.  Just came back from a 17 days French Riviera/Northern Italy trip with my good friend, Rosalind.  We had a wonderful time.  Here are some of the beautiful photos and of course not forgetting pictures of the food.

                              One of the beautiful alpine mountain top of Jungfraujoch, Switzerland.




                                                       Lakeside City of Lugano, Switzerland


This is the Monte Carlo F1 Racing track in Monaco. 

                                                People playing chess in the park, Geneva

                            Delicious roast chicken dish at a restaurant in Florence.  Very crispy skin.

I have forgotten the name of this beef dish.  This is raw beef which is thinly sliced, topped with cheese and salt. I shall call it beef shashimi.  Quite nice considering I hardly take raw meat. 

                                          Roast pork dinner at Interlaken, Switzerland.  Yum2.

The famous German Pork Knuckles which we had in Munich. I didn't like the yellow rice ball which is something like the glutinous rice.


                                         Fish fillet dish at a restaurant in Munich.  Very delicious.

                                     Another delicious pork chop dish from the same Munich restaurant. 

Seafood platter from the chef  who owns  this nice little Chinese restaurant in Zurich.  He is the brother-in-law of my good friend, Rosalind and the family took care of both of us during our extended stay.  Thank you very much the Teng family.


                                      Vegetable and mushroom crepe at restaurant in Florence.

Are you hungry now!!!
