For a long time now I’ve been thinking about writing about food. Well, I sometimes do write about food but in a very unstructured manner. Food is important, without it what do we have to look forward to after a nights fast or a long hard day grinding away at the keyboard. I recently created a “food” category on this blog and a couple of sub-categories, but quickly I realised just how inadequate this all was. I mean there is such a variety of food, both Vietnamese and non-Vietnamese, to choose from in this place and such a variety of places in which to eat it. The subject is MASSIVE.

Even so, many times late in the afternoon when my belly begins to rumble and thoughts turn away from whatever I’m working on, for the life of me I have a hard time thinking of where and what I want to eat. So, if for no other reason then, I should create a new blog and devote it to “food glorious food, fabulous food, wonderful food” (thanks to the musical Oliver for that). That way, if I have the food written down in a logical manner I can simply visit royby.com/food and find what it is I want to eat.

Great idea, one huge problem. Where will I find the time to do all of this. Hmmm mumble mumble. Maybe I’ll go eat something and think this over. But where will I eat?
