PRC’s South China Sea Grab Goes from Sensational to Subtle

Whatever your position on what belongs to who in the South China Sea dispute (“East Sea” in Vietnam), you gotta give credit to China for creatively pushing their claim to the whole thing. Well, in their defense, not the whole thing, just around 80%.

Cemetery Vultures: Losing Your Head (and your money) Over Ancestor Worship

Wed, 02/13/2013 - 12:57 — idlewordship
If you cherish your deceased loved ones, you might want to encase your loved ones in cement in Vietnam.

If you cherish your deceased loved ones, you might want to encase them in cement in Vietnam.

I am not one to kick the religious beliefs of others —hell, I once did a drunken rain dance in hopes of quitting smoking— but if your thing is ancestor worship, as it is in much of Asia, then you might want to be careful how you bury your loved ones in Vietnam.

Vietnamese Inspired Spicy Vegetables

There was no time to waste. Having learnt to cook fragrant vegan Vietnamese cuisine in Hoi An, I was eager to recreate the flavors in my Korean apartment. Studying the scrappy piece of paper with notes scrawled back and front, I was able to decipher my favourite recipe and blow my friends away with this dish designed to tempt the most committed carnivore.

VU in Vietnam Part 2

Traveling around Vietnam is all very well, but what’s a vegan to eat? Restaurants catering to tourists usually offer a separate section in their menu of exclusively vegetarian options, and even at local eateries there will be several choices for the most selective veg*n.

Mushroom and Tofu Patties

Mushroom and Tofu Patties

Premonitions about Vietnamese food had led me to believe that anything and everything that had a heartbeat would be listed on the menu. I didn’t believe the cuisine of Vietnam could be as succulent as its history.  But after a week spent in the city of Hoi An I was proved quite wrong.

Vietnamese food, I discovered relies heavily on vegetables and flavours more than any other country I can think of.  Coriander and cumin, lemongrass and lime, soy sauce and Saigon cinnamon, the range of flavours is quite stifling, but completely intoxicating.

Below is a simple and easy to make recipe of some Vietnamese Vegan patties.

VU and David HoltVU in Vietnam Part 1

Vietnam has everything! Warm weather, captivating scenery, enchanting people and exquisite food.  It had been over a year since my last vacation, so when my girl-friend Esther Dalseno McCaustlin told me of her wedding in Vietnam I was overjoyed to visit a country whose borders I’d kissed but never crossed.

Vietnam Crystal

Mon, 01/14/2013 - 11:49 — idlewordship

Met my GF’s mom and dad last night here in Haiphong, VN. Her pops cooked some delicious pancake-like dish made from river worms and vegetables. We then got pretty lit on some cheap whiskey and eventually vodka. At some point, before I left, he gave me this awesome crystal vase that he made by hand.

Initial thoughts on Studying Vietnam

Mon, 01/07/2013 - 13:58 — idlewordship

As one of the last of my career chapters begins (local rap legend, male stripper, salesman, journalist, novelist, magazine publisher, international studies professor, novelist, Walmart greeter,) I enrolled in a PhD program in International and Area Studies at Pukyoung University in South Korea.

I would have liked to study somewhere else, preferably warmer (climate and intellectual-wise) but I went and started a damned magazine and I’m kinda tethered to the peninsula for awhile. (I should’ve had some sort of porn/productivity filter set up to allow more porn and less productivity).
