Do you fancy a Cola with Garlic or Bacon? Unfortunately, they are all fake. But this Cola with Yuzu is real. Before tasting it, I made a guess that the taste of Yuzu will probably be the most prominent. This is because of the fragrant, sharp and acidic taste of Yuzu. But I was quite …
Spicy food is normally associated with cultures in warmer climate and nearer the equator. India, Central America, Sichuan in China, South East Asia and Korea. Korea? It’s always been a mystery to me why Koreans love spicy food. There is an explanation on the internet that says that Koreans eat spicy food when they are …
I am quite a fan of Sauvignon Blanc from the Marlborough region in New Zealand. My previous encounters have been positive and I can’t wait for the next. The next happens to be a oddly named Yealand Sauvignon Blanc 2019. Yealand as is in (New) Zealand? Actually, it’s because it was established by Peter Yealands. …

Many years ago, non-alcoholic beer does not taste like beer. In fact, they taste really weird. Nowadays, modern non-alcoholic or low-alcohol beer is very close to the real thing. Even big brands are jumping on the bandwagon. Non-alcoholic beer has a big market in Arab countries or to those under 21, where consumption of alcohol …
Biscuit sticks is an ingenious snack for dieting. They are long and skinny. When you eat them, it makes you feel like you are eating a big piece of biscuit (because of the length), but you’re actually eating a lot less (because it is skinny). As long as you don’t eat those that are coated …
