One of the many beaches of Penghu, Taiwan

Penghu is included in the Most Beautiful Bays in the World Club. This is one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been to, and I've been to lots of beaches throughout Asia, the US, and Europe. This beach is off the beaten path, and once you're on the beach there's nothing but the sand and water - there's no food, no water, no bathrooms, no infrastructure whatsoever. It is simply relaxing and gorgeous!

The weather when I woke up early in the morning was overcast, but in the middle of the morning the sky cleared up and Mother Nature painted the sky with amazing colors and bathed the tree tops with sunlight. Kenting, Taiwan is beautiful!

Food Factory by Nitin

Posted on 2016-08-27

At the first ever Din Tai Fung restaurant in Taipei. It probably started right, and it still is right. But can we neglect the crowded, monotonous, factory-like setting these people are working in, almost like raising chickens for KFC?

I am caught between ethics and taste. Between space and time. And between many other emotions as I witness this scene in the restaurant kitchen.
