Pig Parade in Seattle

These photos were taken in 2007. Just wonder whether these pigs are still around or not.

Beef Undergoes Aging Process

Beef Aging Process

This restaurant in Las Vegas proudly displays the process involved in the preparation of beef.

I think similar process is also used by the Peter Lugar ( see my Peter Lugar Post). Please click on the photo in order to read the words.

I did not try the beef this time. Maybe my next trip to Las Vegas.

Dragon Gate 龙门, 西山Yunnan

This is one of the popular mountains that you must not miss when you travel to Yunnan as it can bring you luck and also elevate your status.

If you are not that adventurous, please stay away from these delicacies

Very nice aerial view

The sign says so

You must touch the Dragon Gate for the effect to take place

Even Nobel Laurette visited here and the list goes on

First time seeing such a big sunflower, I think it is One RMB

This is the proper way to prepare Chinese Tea 昆明普洱

普洱, Kunming

The lady boss is so kind to demonstrate the proper or easier or faster way to prepare 普洱 tea even though the hour has already passed midnight.

In return of her work, I actually bought all the tea utensils shown in the video.

Spaghetti with Squid Ink - - Spaghetti al Nero di Seppia

This Italian can speak Mandarin.

Mona Lisa, Musee du Louvre in Paris

I just wonder whether this painting is real or fake. If it is real, why the authority allowed flash to be used by the visitors?

This is How the Female French Students Welcome Foreigners

2009-10-8

While taking a Seine River Cruise, a group of students ( I presume ) was shouting at us, so my video camera also was diverted from river scene to them. Please watch the video towards the end. You will be surprised what I had captured.

Making my wish at Trevi Fountain, Rome

Trevi Fountain

This is my second video take as I forgot to make a wish while throwing the coin into the fountain.

Do you think it is easy to become an actor?

法式海鮮晚餐 French Gourmet Dinner, Paris

After being bombarded with much cajolement from the "Tour Director", I psychologically plunked down 60 euro for one session of French Gourmet Dinner at a restaurant located somewhere close to Galaries Lafayette, Paris.

I don't know the exact location, perhaps the readers are able to locate the restaurant based on the statue shown above.

Walking gingerly into the restaurant.

I don't want to iterate the name of the restaurant.

For ease of reference, I have enlarged the individual pages as follows.

Inside the restaurant

每人1/4支紅酒及白水

On the whole, the foods are palatable. However, I am not sure whether the whole meal would actually ring up at 60 euro. For the sake of my fans and readers, I happily wrote off the 60 euro.

For those who wish to carry out patronage on this restaurant, exercise your wisdom ?
