[Title] => A culinary adventure down south at Gumbo
[Summary] =>
Only one thing comes to mind when I hear the word New Orleans: Mardi Gras. For many bon vivants and party watchers, this celebration, held on the day before Ash Wednesday, is the ultimate indulgence, just before the Catholic world goes into the 40 penitent days of Lent. Revelers, adorned with colorful bead necklaces, riot up and down its main street in just one more drunken extravagance.

[Title] => A Chinese Monks tale
[Summary] => Sometime in the year 270, a boy chose to give up all his possessions and live a life of solitude. That day, monasticism was born and, since then, monks have been devoting themselves to serving the lord through worship and rigorous self-denial.
Today, you can find them serving lunch and dinner at Chinese Monk, a restaurant at the Power Plant Mall with an interesting mix of dim sum and Chinese dishes not usually found in local establishments.

[Title] => The discipline of Chinese cooking at Chinese Monk
[Summary] => Except for the receptionist and the bartender, the whole staff at Chinese Monk have shaved heads. The only reason why the receptionist and the bartender are exempt from the haircut requirement is because they are women.
The shaved heads are intentional, says Chinese Monk managing director Albert Alavera. One look at the frames that adorn the restaurants walls emphasizes the obvious: Somebody must have been watching too many Chinese martial arts movies.
