Detroit Delicious

Food. Yum. Need I say more? Travel anywhere, well mostly anywhere and you will encounter amazing food. I’m going to start with the holy grail of food, Coney Islands in the D. After a late night following a Tigers game, an inevitable Detroit Lions loss, nothing is better than chillyicheese fries, a gyros, and a Detroit style chili dog. I know people stateside and indeed worldwide are scared of Detroit and therefore let that fabricated fear get the best of them. That unwarranted fear quickly dissipates after having those tasty treats. Please support American Coney Island when you finally get to Detroit to watch a Lions victory. Here’s how our global food tour begins: a plate of food on a table Hey, at least I had a diet pepsi.

Beer me

Who doesn’t like beer? It’s simply un-American if you answer you do not. But, let’s face it, American beers aren’t exactly the greatest. While you have your micro breweries and all the hoppy [disgusting IPA’s] that everyone rants and raves about, there’s nothing like going to a foreign land and tasting that local brew. Rule number one after leaving the hotel, anywhere I am, stateside or abroad is to never pass a pub. Walk in, order, drink, enjoy. Let the vacation begin:

Party Time Worldwide

“I can have fun without drinking,” someone once told me. Maybe, it is possible but I prefer the alternative. What’s on your bucket list? (worst saying btw) I hope Koh Phangan, Thailand. DSC01184 Stay tuned for the debauchery, worldwide of course.

We’re Off to Wine Country Worldwide

What makes a good wine? What credibility do I have to tell you what wine is good and what wine is crap? These pressing questions and much more  will be answered in my international expedition: Alex takes on Wine Country Worldwide. So go to your local Costco, pick up your bottle of $7.99 Merlot and prepare to be wowed. As usual, we start with a picture preview: DSC02942

Pho Sho: Top 10 Pho Worldwide

For all my Pho lovers and friends, I have traveled the world in search of that perfect bowl of pho. Pho Tai is my favorite and I will document with pictures and stories where I was wowed by a great bowl and where I was left disappointed. For those of you who do not know what pho is, shame on you. No worries, I’ll take you to pho university. Let’s start with a nice pic to set the mood:
