Food Porn- What's yours?

I was watching a Special Episode of No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain last night. I love watching this show! :D Anyways, He did one on Food porn where he reveiled his food porn is Pho. I learned that "Pho" is pronounced as "Fa". I was astonished! Anthony thinks the sexiest, addictive and tasiest food is.... Pho? LOL!

Watch Anthony's Food Porn at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsSiA-JHm0U
After I watched that part twice, I think the food porn had gotten to me. I started craving for Pho.

I think my food porn is Cold Korean Noodles (Naengmyeon) and Bung-O-Pang (Taiyaki or Fish cake with Red Bean Paste).

What is your food porn?

Movie - Food Inc

This is a documentary about food, specifically, the fast foods and the meat industry. The movie unveils interesting stuff about food and how it is controlled on a political players and the corporates. I was amazed that corn today can be used for almost anything! It is used for batteries, diapers and other things. What saddened me the most was how powerless the farmers' roles are today. I'm talking about the farmers who partnered up with the corporates. The corporates delegates what do to and if the farmers do not obey or resist, the farmers can be sued their hearts out.

I recommended anyone who loves food, has an interest of nutrition and open-minded folks to watch this movie.

I'm hungry...

I'm a small girl but I can eat a ton.
I love to eat!
I can't imagine my life if I was hit by a truck the next day and I ended up in the hospital with feeding tubes in me. I would rather die.
I'm a vegetarian who cheats meaning yes, I do eat meat occasionally. For sure I am not able to eat it everyday.
What initially made be start this blog was when I was looking for a specific Dim Sum Restaurant in Downtown Toronto. I was not able to find their online menu. So I decided, "Hey, why not start a blog about food, restaurants, recipes and other things related to food?"

I love taking photos of food and sharing my experience and recommendation of restaurants. So why not start now?
