Planet Food

-

I LOVE FOOD!! Full stop. I am now officially in-charge of our weekly food discoveries. I named this post ‘Planet Food’ – inspired by David Attenborough’s Planet Earth... Do you see where I’m coming from- the similarities- discovery channel/planet Earth/Food Discovery...? Ok, I accept... it doesn’t make sense now... Just read on... Planet Food it is.

 Melbourne never ceases to amuse me with its little alleys and best food places to try...  Just like music and Art – Food lovers are classified as well...

The Ones who are more religious to the place/type of food they eat and they only prefer THE place and trying out new places occasionally... I can keep G in this category... He tries new places occasionally when I pulled/dragged himJ (Not literally…Puff!!)

Then the ones like me who explore funky places and any food with one mantra–FOOD in its different avatars... If there is good food in a faraway land- IM GOING THERE BABY!
Then there is high-end food lovers who know their fancy food names – just too hard to pronounce them... This is where I don’t fit in...I really can’t do the justice to the place. I’m sure they are OSM, but not for me.

Testament of FOOD is One should never ever judge food by its place... So far, some of the best ones were the street foods... I’m sure G doesn’t agree with this and he always teases me for that one time in ITALY I had this street food just outside colosseum. Although I must agree, it was not that good. Come-on! I have to try it to say this now... Food in a new City/Country have to be tried it like locals do... That is my theory... Most of the time I have had really amazing ones... and there are times it doesn’t go well too...

I have been always lucky & grateful to have good circle of people I can count on to try new places/food – good or bad... They would always be there with me for next time...
My god is calling me now!!! Time for some FOOD..Caio..

Lost and Found myself..

Rule of thumb for a blind date is to trust the process and to go on a date with no/zero expectation. You do not know who you are meeting until you see them. You cannot check their FB profile or see their stories in Insta. You go there with open mind. If you are lucky, you get a wonderful experience and stories to tell your grand children. Mine was no different, I must say I was always lucky with my blind dates. I have had so many experience of this. However, it was not like I didn't have a choice. Like most of you I too had a conventional way, but choose another way.  I'm talking about my blind dates with this world. Would you dare to go on a blind date with this world? I would. I certainly would. I love the idea of exploring the world , a new place without a map/GPS in hand. I just love the idea of embracing the local culture without reading a travelogue. I just love to taste local food at a street shop in a small alley 'coz local people eat there. I...

Solving business problems – what is your team’s approach?

Whether it's a business problem or a technology problem, the first step is to find a solution. Am I right?  I don’t need a Business degree to recognise it's not the right way to solve a problem; surprisingly, many teams follow this approach. Often a solution is reached before defining a problem. You might argue “Why would an organisation spend $$ without analysing the problem?”. I agree with the intention, but I believe getting clarity on the problem will save time and avoid complications in other business processes, time, money, and resources in the long run. I have noticed instances where businesses quickly resolve problems without knowing the downstream effects on other processes, which can lead to further issues later. In some cases, standard processes have workarounds because no one had time to go back and fix it. Here is your guide to solve problems in an ideal way, The first step is to  analyse and identify the problem  - Explore thoroughly to get to the core ...
