Thai cookery evening
— An evening in Braine l'Alleud, having a lesson in Thai cooking.”

I do enjoy a bit of cooking, so when J invited me to join her on a Thai cooking evening in Braine l’Alleud, I didn’t need to think about it.
The evening was hosted by Boon and her family. This was her first evening course conducted in English.
Boon is evidently also an excellent (and very patient) chef. She showed our group of eight how to make vegetable spring rolls, a tangy king prawn salad and marvellous perch wrapped in banana leaves.
Here are the results:

Relocating to Brussels throws up lots of challenges such as how to evaluate Belgian supermarket chains and rewire UK plugs.

2/5. Chocolate and caramel flavours with a suspicion of cola. Rather too sweet for my taste.

Black Albert
5/5. Don’t let the heavy alcohol content put you off: Black Albert is nothing less than a sour revelation.

Who you gonna call?
Hello you, I'm Mike Padgett. I'm not a Princeton curator, Knoxville mayoral candidate, Kentuckian pastor or Arizona journalist, I just share the same name. In fact, I am a consultant working in user experience and information design.
I also enjoy travel, concerts, films and walking.
I'm originally from Yorkshire, England but nowadays I live in Belgium. My current favourite Belgian beer is Black Albert.
Shameless self-promotion
Over a year in the making, Dopeology.org is my latest personal project: a topology of doping in thirty years of European pro road cycling.
I collected information from thousands of sources, then I modelled and published it via a lightweight user interface.
