The half century!

Wow, I've made it to 50 posts.  Ok, while one or two were rants, it's taken a lot more work and energy to post about my experiences than I thought!  No worries, I find that I really enjoy writing about my experiences, so I hope you will continue to enjoy reading them as well.  Sappiness done, time to go eat some more.

Trim the fat

Maybe I need to do some trimming of my own, but in the meantime, I plan to make some changes to the blog.  I'm always looking for ways to tweak THN to help readers (and myself!) more easily access what they're looking for.  So as I get more of a hang of things, I'll stop to take a look and see what I think could use some fixing.  Of course, any feedback from other people also helps!

I'm going to add a cost rating system for the items, and will set post dates to correspond with the date I sampled the food.  Geez, seems so basic, yet I haven't implemented them to this point.  One thing I want to do is simplify the Labels - it's just so cluttered!  Well, one step at a time...

I'm hungry and I know it

I can't help watch I'm Elmo and I Know It now and again.  Then again, I can't help go back to where I can get an old favorite.  It sometimes makes for boring food blog reading, but far too often, I find that these old favorites, don't always deserve to remain a favorite... The public deserves to know when that happens!

Good thing I'm hungry, so I can always try new places as well... onward!

It's getting hot in here (but keep your clothes on Nelly)

Weather in Hong Kong has been really hot the past few days.  The start of the Olympics in London has given me a reason to stay indoors with air conditioning and the tv both on full blast!  Despite the heat, I am still spending time wandering the streets of Hong Kong and Macau looking for new foods to try though!

Stay cool and don't forget to put that sunscreen on (or whatever you prefer to use as protection from the sun)...

The start of something simple...

I've fiddled around with Tumblr and Wordpress, but have decided to start with Blogger.  Blogger seems to have more configuration flexibility and so far, I just click better with it so far.  I figure that the layout and settings will initially constantly be adjusted, so rather than spending tons of time tweaking them, I'll probably just run with it and get some actual food posts up shortly.

This is my first published blog (yes, really) so I'm open to any suggestions/feedback both on my blog and any food that you think I should try.  It's almost 2am, and you guessed it.  I am hungry!
