Extra Fancy Sauce: Pebble Beach Food & Wine

March 11, 2016 by Rachel DuchakLeave a Comment

I can honestly say that I’ve never been to an event quite like Pebble Beach Food & Wine. Over. The. Top. As I pulled up to the Grand Tasting in my Honda CRV, I giggled at the sign which read, “Free valet parking when you drive your Lexus,” and knew that I was in for something completely different at this tasting event. As I walked from my car to the enormous white tents hosting the festivities, I had a momentary concern that my … [Read more...]

Nature Tour of Bangkok? You’ve Got to be Kidding, Right?!

March 4, 2016 by Dave2 Comments

When I first signed up for the Follow Me Siam Sawan 'Jungle Tour' I cursorily glanced at the itinerary and assumed this would be an urban jungle tour - especially since their office is located in Sathorn, right in Bangkok's Financial District.

Unbelievably neither of … [Read more...]
