Hansar Samui, Koh Samui Mar 5th 2013, 08:29 The last stop of my Thai sojourn was Koh Samui, a beautiful island off the east coast of Thailand which the whole world comes for a truly tropical vacation. Since I had developed such great liking and affiliation with Hansar Bangkok, the first leg of my sojourn, naturally I chose to stay at its sister property in Koh Samui, Hansar Samui. I mean, what could be more inviting than a luxury resort and spa situated so close to the airport (just 10 minutes away) that offers a world of island life at Koh Samui's up-market Bophut Bay? I practically alighted from the plane and was greeted by paradise in no time. Just like what is promised, the Sea View Room we stayed in was simply spacious, tastefully decorated and generously stocked for a thoroughly relaxing and luxurious stay. The openness of the balcony gave me a limitless pleasure of private view of the endless stretch of sun-kissed sandy beach bordered by the wind-swept turquoise waters of Bophut Bay. At that moment, I fully understood and felt the true meaning of Hansar, which in ancient Sanskrit, means happiness and joy. My happiness and joy at Hansar did not stop at the room with a wonderful view. My breakfast also came with a...

L.A. Times - Food & Dining: Critic's Choice: Cool, creative ceviche

L.A. Times - Food & Dining Headlines from latimes.com

Critic's Choice: Cool, creative ceviche Mar 2nd 2013, 00:00 Is ceviche poised to become as popular as sushi or sashimi in L.A.? It could happen. I'm thinking Ricardo Zarate is onto something as the Peruvian chef (Mo-Chica, Picca) gets ready to open a ceviche concept called Paiche. Raw seafood marinated in lime juice with chiles and cilantro and other elements suits a Southern California palate. It's cool and refreshing, packs in vibrant flavors and is light on the calories.

L.A. Times - Food & Dining Headlines from latimes.com

Counter Intelligence: Stylish, deluxe Japan-inspired cuisine at Hinoki & the Bird Mar 2nd 2013, 00:00 In a modern, luxuriously designed Century City restaurant from David Myers that is part Bond-villain lair, part garden party, the pan-Asian cooking with high-end ingredients leaves an impression. Hinoki is a fragrant cypress most Japanese associate with extremely expensive bathtubs, popular with the wealthy because the wood is used to build the soaking tubs at onsen , Japanese hot springs. Hinoki wood is also used to build the counters of the most prestigious sushi bars; long, smooth planks that are sanded every day and given weekly baths of milk. Media files: 16x9

L.A. Times - Food & Dining: Farmers Markets: Odd-looking cherimoya is a sublime find

L.A. Times - Food & Dining Headlines from latimes.com

Farmers Markets: Odd-looking cherimoya is a sublime find Mar 1st 2013, 00:00 — The cherimoya is a peculiar-looking, almost intimidating fruit — "like a pre-Columbian jade pine cone or the finial for a giant Inca four-poster bed," in Elizabeth Schneider's memorable words. But at its best it tastes sublime, with sweet, juicy, flan-like flesh and rich flavor blending papaya, banana and pineapple. Mark Twain famously called it "the most delicious fruit known to men," and if taste were all that counted, cherimoyas might outsell apples. Media files: 16x9

L.A. Times - Food & Dining: The California Cook: Let artichoke possibilities flower

L.A. Times - Food & Dining Headlines from latimes.com

The California Cook: Let artichoke possibilities flower Mar 2nd 2013, 00:00 I was giving one of my periodic talks at local libraries the other day, and someone asked if I knew a good way to prepare artichokes. It stopped me cold. "A" good way? Only one? Which one? Do you want artichokes by themselves? Do you want artichokes as an ingredient? Do you want them cooked or do you want them raw? Too many choices. Media files: 16x9
