Is this the world’s strangest luxury? Nestled in the neon chaos of Bangkok’s Yaowarat, you’ll find vendors serving this ancient mystery: Bird’s Nest drink. It’s a staple of traditional recipes and food history. For centuries, this "liquid gold" was so rare and expensive it was reserved only for Emperors. The secret? It’s made from the hardened saliva of swiftlets found in limestone caves. Known in culinary anthropology as an elixir for health and skin, it’s now a accessible piece of food heritage you can enjoy on a plastic stool for just a few dollars. It’s sweet, refreshing, and a must-try for any curious soul. Now be honest: Knowing what it’s made of... would you take a sip? Let me know in the comments! 👇 Culinary anthropology research in Bangkok Chinatown. Tasting traditional Bird's Nest soup at Yaowarat night market.

The Sea Champ 18 was a cool little fishboat we found on display at the Southampton Boat show, and it illustrates a lot of the differences between boats built on this side of the Atlantic, versus those built over there in the UK. Even though it's just 18' it has a pilothouse. But, it still has a ton of fishing room in the open cockpit. Check it out. http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/11/first-look-video-sea-champ-18/ For more boat videos, visit www.boats.com.
