Strictest dress codes - 5 countries with fashion police {Gadling}
Apr 13th 2011 2:22PM On an ironic note, outside of Saudi Arabia, even members of the House of Saud do not abide by the dress codes. One of the princes came to stay at my hotel along with his entourage of 40, including his wife. I expected very modest women with all sorts of covering. I was quite surprised when they showed up dressed like a Kardashian. Skinny jeans, halter tops, and hair flowing in the wind.
Marcel's Quantum Kitchen -- Enter to Win an Apple iPad 2 {Slashfood}
Mar 15th 2011 2:29PM Marcel was a love to hate character on Top Chef, so it will be great to see him not competing against the other chefs and instead with himself. I love the molecular gastronomy aspect and it's already a Seasons Pass on my Tivo!
Contest: Cold hands? Win a Zippo Hand Warmer! {Gadling}
Feb 9th 2011 11:58AM I live in the San Francisco Bay Area & the coldest I had to deal with is in the low 30's. But wait! Before you call me crazy & a whiner, I just moved back in to the mainland from Hawaii, where I spent 8 years. My hands & feet have been perpetually cold since moving back. It's at least a 30 degree difference from what I'm used to and this past year has had the lowest temps in a long time. The weather is kicking my butt!

Top 10 restaurants on Maui {Gadling}
Aug 16th 2010 7:32PM I used to live in Maui County & totally agree with Mama's Fish House. They have amazing fresh food, interesting preparation styles and fantastic service. Literally some of the best meals I have ever eaten
But another restaurant that should be up there is Hali'iMaile General Store. It's got great upcountry fare, it's off the beaten path & I could walk there from my friend's house!
Also, Flatbread Pizza in Pa'ia is delish.
Food, glorious food! photography contest presented by Tamrac {Gadling}
Jul 7th 2010 12:28PM My best meal ever? Not the most fancy or avant garde, but just simple, fresh ingredients at a little restaurant in Riomaggiore, Italy March 2006
My dinner comprised fresh fried calamari, caught that same day served with fresh lemon. Pesto Lasagna with toasted pine nuts. A small carafe of house white wine. Dessert of cappuccino with the best Tiramisu ever. A steal at 32 euro!
It was the most expensive meal I had on that trip & I can still taste the amazing flavors!
