Enter the chaotic world of Kevin Chan (aka Yoshi, Chanman and Jesus)

A New Era?

As you can see, my blog presence has changed and I am ready to write more than usual. A few things went away - my bio page, my friends page - but hey, I think it looks better.

The comments section is back, so for all 2 of you who actually check out my page, feel free to comment away.

Hmm, should I keep doing the advisory column? It’s not always easy coming up with topics…

Anyways, you’ll see that I have embedded the gallery into the main theme, while the forums are pretty much its own theme. It’s just too bad that I am too lazy to integrate everything, but such is life.

As for my normal life, things are going well. Shareena and I just celebrated our 8 year anniversary. We went to one of our favorite places - Napa Valley Grille - and well, let’s just say that it wasn’t the ideal restaurant experience. Let’s count the ways:

  • Ordered one soup…asked for two spoons…one server thought I said “two soups”…told the waiter that I said “two spoons”…server brings second soup…hmm, lack of communications?
  • Where are my wines (3 tasters)?
  • Oops, food spill (not too bad and even understandable given that we were fitting a lot of stuff on a small table)
  • Ack, salty chicken
  • Um, why are you charging us for coffee?

I guess we will be looking for another place in Napa to dine the next time we are there. Della Santina’s in Sonoma is quite nice and very well priced as well.

Otherwise, our next trip will be Vegas! More on this in the near future.
