Obsession with Food

        Upon my arrival at the café, I encounter a whole new world. I am in nirvana. This café is a true-life destination, with a fascinating blend of multi-culture and modern design, in a unique space appealing at the same time to the eye, the palate and the senses.                

        With zealous fervor, I try to inhale the scent of the strawberries lying on a just-born cheesecake… inhale the richness of them and subsequently, savor their flavor and the cheesy bed they’re resting on. Besides the cheesecake, there is an alluring variety of scrumptious selections all from different parts of the globe. And so, it turns out to be a “dilemma” on what to order. My “picnic” to take outside or a feast to dine on inside? My baguette, should it be on whole-wheat or on herbal dough, should I have honey ham or oven-roast turkey, add in creamy cheese or tangy taramosalata? Should I pig-out on all the salad or be selective; crispy cos, sun-dried tomatoes, crunchy onions, diet-friendly bean sprouts all together with coronary-inducing mayo? The alternative being slouching on their comfy couches and choosing from their daily specials: creamy Italian risotto (YUM!!!), delicious Japanese sukiyaki, British bangers and mash or Mediterranean seafood bake? Wow, my mind whirls like a maelstrom with this decision making process!
