Gnocchi with Spinach, Tomato & Moz

I had a bunch of left over spinach, so I made this! Very easy to make. First chop up one small onion and cook in some olive oil in a large pan until translucent. Then add like 4-6 cloves of garlic (that are smashed). Take 4 smallish tomatoes and smash with hands, add to pan. [...]

Cookin’ Persian in Prague: Kookoo Sabzi

I’ve been wanting to cook this Persian dish for a few weeks and since I am settled in Prague now, I finally have time and space to cook. This is a really easy thing to make. 1) Finely chop up: 3 cups fresh spinach 2 cups fresh parsley 1 cup fresh dill 3 green onions [...]

Merzbow in Prague

I saw Merzbow last night – a totally bone rattling experience. I recorded a video and I was just looking at it now and there’s no point in sharing it with anyone since it sounds like shit! But i have some pictures… basically yeah he is up there with two laptops and occasionally he plays [...]

Prague Foods

I’m in Prague now, subletting a place for almost 3 weeks. I checked out another cafeteria style veggie place (they’re just cheap…), here is my meal, it was OK. Slice of pizza, some mashed potatoes, some tofu thing, and some veggie sausage/potato thing. Name of the place is “Country Life.”

Lazy Saturday, Busy Sunday

Me and Teresa were worthless on Saturday. Well, I was worthless, Teresa cooked me some pasta. And we watched the German movie “The Lives of Others” — great film. On Sunday, we had quite a schedule: brunch, the Schirn again (this time for the Darwin exhibit – fantastic), and then some waffles. Scoped out some [...]

Sleepless in Frankfurt

I love Germany. So post-museums, I walked around for a second and snapped some shots then returned to Offenbach. Decompressed for a second, because museums are quite exhausting (j/k). Later in the evening, I went out to dinner with Pascal, my Offenbach host. I had spinach with feta. That’s precisely what it was. When I [...]

MMK & Schirn Kunsthalle

Thanks to some friendly advice, I visited the Museum Für Moderne Kunst (I thought it was called the “Kunst” at first, but then I realized “Kunst” translates to art – it’s the modern art museum). I’d never seen art by Thomas Bayrle before, and I liked what they had there. They also had this light [...]

Spectrum in Würzburg

So, the main reason I derailed my east of Europe adventures and came to Germany was to see Spectrum. I’d seen it advertised on a MySpace bulletin, that my MySpace friend Kosmik-Klaus was doing visuals for Spectrum in Würzburg, which is 1.5 – 2 hours away from Frankfurt. That made me want to go more [...]

Budapest-Bratislava-Frankurt

Took a short train from Budapest to Bratislava and then hopped on a plane to Frankfurt. I arrived at my couchsurfing host’s flat in Offenbach around 1am. We chatted a little bit, had some tea and then passed out (my first time sleeping on a floor this whole trip, not too bad). Tonight I am [...]

‘Pest, Food, ‘n’ Hair

I met up with Kyle again and we saw the Pest side of the city today: Hero’s square, the other castle, parliament, and other things. After parliament we ate dinner at Eden Vegetarian, yet another cafeteria style place. We shared the plate of food. After dinner I went to get my haircut, and it was [...]
