Welcome to Spoon Tripping

So Hi, this is me!

It's about passion.  I am passionate about food...and traveling.  When I can't travel I am traveling from plate to plate, spoon to spoon in my own kitchen.  Putting my on twist on cuisine from around the world.  


When I'm traveling, I am 'eating' my way from location to location.  I love eating local cuisine, tasting the culture.  But I also love the twist put on 'foreign' food in each country.  

Sakura in Kingman, Arizona

BBQing in the snow

I love looking for and finding great food in unexpected places.  Fantastic Japanese food in Kingman Arizona at strip mall restaurant called Sakura.  

Or preparing something out of the ordinary or in a way that is out of the ordinary.  In this case we barbecued with snow on the ground.  No, there wasn't much snow, but it's the though that counts and just adds to the enjoyment of the entire experience.

Lily's Stomach Supply in Basel, Switzerland

To my mind, there's nothing that tells you more about a country or locality than it's food.  And eating out and being there with the locals just brings the experience home, as it were.

I hope to share recipes, experiences my passion and joy with you all.
