This is a photo journal for a fella from Minneapolis, Minn. The photographs posted are snapped by me from my travels or brief moments of my day. I also tweet from the handle @albertisawesome. Hope you enjoy.
Check out Life in Monochrome for my two-toned photos.

My friend @eatsleepsass made all this in the same time it took me to chop an onion. (Taken with picplz.)

There was no turkey, gravy or stuffing for us this past Thanksgiving. My aunt instead served-up a brilliantly delicious hot pot filled with vegetable, seafood and tofu goodies. Nothing beats a Chinese style Thanksgiving!

Yum.

I didn’t have much of a plan when I first started this blog. I only wanted to keep myself busy with a hobby while sharing photos with friends, family and any person who might stumble on my snapshots. It’s been a great time maintaining it and refining my photographs. To my surprise I’ve even had a number of brief interactions with folks from all around the world.
A few weeks ago, however, this blog opened a different opportunity for me. Through Tumblr I connected with a dedicated and determined Minneapolis hamburger artist who I read about on a food blog called Heavy Table.
John, the creator of Burger Night, a Minneapolis hamburger event and soon-to-be restaurant, asked me if I were interested in helping as an event photographer for his final event of the summer at the venue Old Arizona. I’m a sucker for a good burger so I immediately jumped on board.
A couple weekends ago I dropped into the latest Burger Night event with my cameras and snapped away. I also had a couple of John’s seriously delicious burgers which have convinced me to never eat anyone else’s again.
You can check out some of my event snapshots on Burger Night’s Facebook page. Be sure to keep look for future Burger Night events so you can give the burgers a taste. You won’t regret it.

This is pretty much what our breakfast consisted of during our travel.

My stomach had quite the workout this past weekend but not in any healthy way. I tagged along with my cousin @snnychng and his pals to one of our favorite Minneapolis-eateries, Uptown Diner. This scrumptious place is well known in these parts for delicious grub and extra-large portions. Personally, I like their breakfast selections such as the Tex Mex and Cajun Breakfast (photographed above), both of which are seemingly reaching local legendary status now-a-days.
What enticed us to gorge on family-sized-servings of breakfast foods and stretch the limits of our denim sizes? I guess we aren’t above eating uncomfortably large servings of chow just to gain momentary fame.
