Dr. Bashioum’s Friday Photos: Hiking the Alps
September 13th, 2012
My wife, Lindsay, took this photo while we were hiking in the beautiful Austrian Alps with our friends. While Peter and Patricia Kitchak had been there before, it was our first time to enjoy hiking up through the high mountain pastures with them. We had a great time, beginning each morning with a hearty Austrian breakfast at lovely Villa Angela in the charming town of Mayrhofen, before heading out for our daily treks.
Dr. Bashioum’s Friday Photo: Sushi Treat
July 20th, 2012
Once again Lindsay and I managed to snag a table at the sushi bar at the popular Sushi Yuzu in Toluca Lake. This time we had our first opportunity to try a rather local delicacy, Santa Barbara sea urchin roe, otherwise known as uni. It was a very delicate and fresh tasting treat. The chef often embraces a flair for the unusual, rewarding the adventuresome and happy diners.
