If you read my diaries, you know that I've been very busy filming a new movie and since I can't talk much about what we're doing, I've been kind of silent here on my website. However, I have a little story and some photos that I want to share with you today.

After filming in a small harbor village in Taitung, Taiwan, we were on the way back to our hotel when we realized we hadn't eaten lunch yet. Our driver told us about a small bread shop where the bread is homemade and very delicious (especially the cinnamon raisin buns). So we decided to go there. 

When we arrived I saw that it wasn't really a bread shop at all! It was a tiny (only 5 tables) Italian restaurant. The owner is Italian and his wife is Taiwanese and American. Our lunch was quite delicious and so I decided to share this little secret with you - - great Italian food in Taiwan!  Here are some photos we took:

I am sure the food is delicious as his father was an excellent chef and I enjoyed many meals at Marino's in Johnsonburg many yrs ago.

I really loved reading this blog - too Dave and Rolly had not had this restaurant when I visited them in 1997 when they lived in Taipei. I'd love to test their dishes! Congratulations to both of them!

Hi again ! Today, I only see cowardice(guns), dangerous (nuclear bombs), personal interests (money). All of this will bring us into destruction and chaos, and many other living beings will die if we continue to take more than Earth can give us. "We take for a while, but one day, we have to give back". Hopefully, not all humans are like that.

Hi, Jackie Chan ! For me, all principles of martial arts should be valuable for all living beings but in our world, it is not so. I'm afraid of the human race because they are the most dangerous on this planet and many of them are destroying the environment just for money. Some humans are suffering because of that, and animals too. You and Jet Li are good people, many of us are counting on you.
