September 19th, 2009
Another stellar suggestion from Maria, the MUAY THAI BOXING is a must-do when visiting Bangkok. Be sure to go to the fights at Lumpini Stadium and sit up front (VIP) for all the action &#8211; including the splatters of blood and sweat.  Be sure to check the listings for which nights have fights [...]]]></description>

September 19th, 2009
Upon a suggestion from the lovely Maria at the Four Seasons Bangkok, I headed out to see the famed KATHOEYS (Lady Boys) of Thailand perform. I went to the latest evening performance at MAMBO Cabaret, which was recommended as having the best looking ladyboys around though, I beg to differ. The one I [...]]]></description>

September 17th, 2009
My apologies that I cannot write more right now. I&#8217;m exhausted from a long, hot day &#8211; woo-ee is it muggy here. But I&#8217;m going to post some pics and promise to add more textual reference to them tomorrow.  Thank for your patience.

September 14th, 2009
The Number 1 Silk Factory doesn&#8217;t get its name because its the best in China, rather because it&#8217;s the oldest. Its one of the few remaining factories where employees still do some of the work by hand. It makes for a surprisingly enlightening tour, causing you to rethink every silk possession in [...]]]></description>

September 14th, 2009
Here in Suzhou, a smaller city in China (though still 6 million people), I&#8217;ve discovered what my buddy Ben in Hong Kong had forewarned about traditional Chinese business dinners.  As Ben rattled off lore (lazy susans, chicken feet and hideously potent alcohol) I absently shook my head thinking there&#8217;s no way our [...]]]></description>

September 13th, 2009
I went to the Urban Planning Museum in Shanghai which at first seemed a bit frustrating that I was going to a museum about a city I was actually in and thus able to visit the city itself. Yet, I stand corrected. The museum was interesting with photos from the city&#8217;s past plus [...]]]></description>

So, as customary, I returned the following day to retrieve my custom designed, tailor made selections; a brown cashmere coat with added detail on the cuff and pockets, a purple cashmere dress with added pockets, a green and gold wool dress and a silk print shirt. What felt like a giddy foray into [...]]]></description>

September 13th 2009
First off,  HOLY MOLY! The FABRIC MARKET  in Shanghai, located now at 399 Lu Jia Bang road, is one of the most alluring and dangerous places I have ever been.  It was Willy Wonka&#8217;s Chocolate Factory and I embodied every single one of the bratty child characters at one point, including Charlie, [...]]]></description>

September 12th, 2009
Am so excited to be here in Shanghai. Once again the Chinese dazzle with night lights and towering skyscrapers to keep man humble&#8230;or something like that. I&#8217;m staying as a guest at the Shangri-La in Shanghai on the Pudong side of the river. So far I&#8217;ve learned that &#8220;Pu&#8221; means river and [...]]]></description>

September 11th, 2009
Mooncakes are a traditional Chinese pastry made for the Mid-Autumn Festival and are meant to be eaten outside, under the moon. They come in all types of varieties and are generally a tad dense for the western palette being that they&#8217;re made with duck egg yolk.  Haagen Dazs though has rolled out [...]]]></description>
