A Malaysian meal in London (and a hotel or two)

I’d love to blog freely tonight but let’s just say my internet connection leaves much to be desired.

I just wanted to share my dinner… Satay House at 13 Sale Place near Paddington A delicious Malaysian restaurant located just off of Sussex Gardens. I had a delicious dinner there… Udang Galah Goreng – king prawns sauteed in chilies, peppers, lime leaves, turmeric and coconut milk. Very good flavor – not at all spicy (despite what the waitress told me). Let’s face it – spicy in the UK is not spicy in Texas.

An unexpected meal in London

Tonight I find myself in London… I’m staying at the Hyde Park Radnor, a quaint and affordable little hotel located a mere 2 minutes from Paddington station. The hotel is comfortable and reasonably priced – a mere 65 pounds for a room with a private bathroom. The room is a bit on the tiny side but, when you’re traveling on your own, does it really matter? Everything is nice and clean and the location? Well, the location is ideal. Paddington is two blocks away and provides easy access to the tube and the Heathrow Express.

The weather in Aberdeen is something else… I woke up to beautiful sunny skies. A short while later, swirling snow was coming down… followed by sun… then rain… then sun…

My Quick Stay in Aberdeen

Many people know Aberdeen as the oil capital of Europe (the North Sea is teeming with oil)… probably 80% of the industry in this city on the Northern Sea is dedicated to the oil and gas industries. It’s also not hard to figure out why Aberdeen is called the “Granite City” since everywhere you look, buildings are made out of locally quarried granite. In fact, one could call Aberdeen the gray city and do so without it being a disparaging remark. A vast majority of the granite quarried in the area is a deep gray color so everywhere you look, you see gray…
