Average priced "Restaurants, Cafes & Food" in Fresno, California, USA
It was a warm summer afternoon, my husband and I went to Fresno to buy an extra battery for my camera. We wanted a refreshing drink while we walked around River Park (where most of the stores are situated). We were looking for a Starbucks coffee shop but we can't find one but I saw a small place that looked attractive from the outside. I take a peek on the glass walls. Lo and behold it is a "dr…

Average priced "Sights & Attractions" in San Francisco, California, USA
When we were in San Francisco we decided that a visit to Alcatraz was a must. We checked out the available tours on the web and decided that a night tour was for us. The tour is slightly more expensive than the day tour at $35 per adult compared to $28, but we thought this represented pretty good value. This includes a mini cruise around Alcatraz and a tour of the island and it's buildings.

Ridiculously Expensive "Hotels & Accommodations" in New Delhi, India
The Taj Palace is an elegant luxury hotel with 400 rooms located inside the Diplomatic enclave with 7 acres of landscaped gardens and a short distance from the Airport. This is quite a fancy hotel and part of the Five Star Alliance as one of Delhi's top 20 hotels. On the occasion of my visit, I had the privilege and honor to attend an Indian wedding at The Taj Palace. The hotel has an enormous amo…

Free! "Sights & Attractions" in Bremen, Germany
Bremen Airport is located around 3km from the heart of the medieval centre and is one of the easy accessible airports going in Europe.
ARRIVING
I flew into Bremen Airport with Ryanair in May 2012 and after leaving the aircraft, passengers were sent into a small terminal building which is designed for handling Ryanair passenger's only. Passports happen straight away (as I came in from an NON…

Very cheap "Sights & Attractions" in Detmold, Germany
It looks like the bolder brother of the Statue of Liberty, doesn’t it? And its message is a similar one: The ‘Hermannsdenkmal – or ’Arminius Monument’ – was meant to be a symbol of liberation. A little forgotten now, and even misused by political extremists in the course of time.
The monument was designed and built by architect Ernst von Bandel (1800-1876) between 1838 and 1875 (!) in…

Average priced "Hotels & Accommodations" in Stockholm, Sweden
The hotel named Lilla Rådmannen is a small nice hotel belonging to a hotel chain in Stockholm that I like a lot. One of the sister hotels, Freys is one of my favorites in this part of Stockholm. I had never stayed at this little hotel before but I knew that I would not be disappointed, because the chain is making quality experiences even out of small hotel rooms.
Hotel Lilla Rådmannen is loc…

Average priced "Restaurants, Cafes & Food" in Clewiston, Florida, USA
It's silly that I'm just writing this review, as I've been here many times when driving to visit my friend and her mom in Fort Myers from West Palm Beach. In fact, I make it a point to stop at this place pretty much every time I make that drive on State Road 80 through Clewiston, a tiny, sleepy town in Hendry County.
Dixie Fried Chicken is a rather unassuming restaurant; it's pretty easy to mis…

Expensive "Restaurants, Cafes & Food" in Beijing, China
We went to this restaurant, Mei Zhou Dong Po, for my grandma's 80th birthday celebration. She suggested it, out of several choices, because she heard from her friends that it was a great place for SiChuan food that's not too expensive. We had booked a private section in advance.
The restaurant, held on the 4th floor of a building with several restaurants in HaiDian, held many small tables in th…

Average priced "Restaurants, Cafes & Food" in Kingston upon Thames, England, UK
Spotted the place as we did a recce around Kingston on arrival. Looked good from the outside, and decided that was where we were heading that night, and glad we did.
Nice warm welcome on arrival, and all the staff, and there were plenty of them, appeared to be Italian. Actually remineded me of a restaurant my son and I went to in Rome, so there was a pretty authentic feel to it.
Quick and e…
