This is an invited media tasting, opinions are mine. Photos by the talented Roger of Camistry Lab. The pre-Lent observance period, Karneval, is often unofficially known as the fifth season in Germany. A traditional festival, Karneval, as its name sounds, is a festive carnival parade celebrated […]
When I visited USA back in 2012, I was awed by the ‘sampler’ platters that eateries have. I loved the concept of being able to try a little bit of everything even when you’re a solo diner. This is exactly why I like Ichiba Coji. […]
