Moreish – Cafe Ish

July 13, 2010

All-you-can-eat ribs. It’s such a beautiful concept that it almost makes me tear up at the thought. Tender, succulent crescents of meat that slips effortlessly off the bone.

May 6, 2010

From time to time, there are circumstances that arise in my life that make me sit back and look at the bigger picture.
