屯堡人过着与世隔绝的生活,时至今日依然恪守着其世代传承的明朝文化和生活习俗,历经600年的沧桑,形成了今天独具特色的“屯堡文化” ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho00IDfyTI/AAAAAAAAEZg/85lCFdsX2kg/s400/IMG_2667.JPG) ![](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho00bt1Z0I/AAAAAAAAEZo/2ulnJQVyARk/s400/IMG_2672.JPG)
茶战。这个老妈妈可是屯堡的“形象代言人”。国内大小刊物凡是有介绍屯堡文化的文章,老妈妈的照片一定少不了。 ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho3AyhgPfI/AAAAAAAAEZ4/ZZcccmuRw6w/s400/IMG_2655.JPG) ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho3AhlhDlI/AAAAAAAAEZw/sXHxyxMdpYA/s400/IMG_2651.JPG)
喝口大碗茶,吃个当地的小点心吧。绝对纯天然手工制作。这在美国一定要花大价钱才享受得到。

好酒嘛,还是我外公说了算。Grandpa took a sip of the wine, and then started nodding his head. Guess the local wine is not bad. We actually brought some to take home.

当地的小玩艺。 ![](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/ShpIS8mnf_I/AAAAAAAAEbQ/kiGYmkv6pYw/s400/IMG_2697.JPG) ![](http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho58PLSLvI/AAAAAAAAEao/5yW0MyDUjsc/s400/IMG_2686.JPG)
屯堡地区妇女的服装非常特别,多以青、蓝色为主,样式为宽袍窄袖并且不加花边。据当地的老人讲,屯堡妇女的服饰是传承了明太祖朱元璋夫人“马大脚”的服饰。俗称“凤阳汉装”。这些服饰从安徽传来,如今在安徽当地早已失传,但是在屯堡却完好地保存下来了。这种服装在当地不仅仅作为节日或祭祀的礼仪服饰,在日常生活中、劳作时都穿着. ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho7OtGB5PI/AAAAAAAAEa4/CY2a-NvH3tA/s400/IMG_2713.JPG) ![](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sho7OeGfgMI/AAAAAAAAEaw/-TwtpnjsQqA/s400/IMG_2642.JPG)
我家老妈就是好奇。人家做什么,她都要去问个么二三。也有可能是当了几十年老师当出的毛病。Sigh....My mom is always curious towards whatever others are doing . I am wondering where do I get my insatiable curiosity to the world?!

我这个人呢,要随意也是可是的。但要是时间和条件允许呢,稍稍的小资一下,讲点排场,吃个洋派,也是没问题的。今天正好是个机会。就好好的享受一下美酒,美食和美景吧。顺便显摆一下,下面的的盘子的配饰都是我自己创意的。 ![](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg-34UnOX0I/AAAAAAAAEU4/qDn0_9UIzdg/s400/IMG_0699.JPG) ![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg-2xv6mgAI/AAAAAAAAEUw/vjUCLykWC0Y/s400/IMG_0698.JPG)
Bangalore has two types of weathers - one is hot, the other one is too hot. So, a business trip to Bangalore, to be honest, is not a treat at all. The jet-lag, the around-the-clock work, the hot weather, can be rather tiring. But, one of the things I do enjoy doing over there is the champaign brunch at LeeLa Palace. Behind the entrance of the 7-star hotel, it is a totally different world. ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg-8jG0WQrI/AAAAAAAAEVY/cWmP--T0SrA/s400/IMG_0722.JPG) ![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg-8ihgSFCI/AAAAAAAAEVQ/0M4JCKFeldE/s400/IMG_0702.JPG)
I guess I can be easy-going sometimes. However, if given the time and opportunity, I can certainly be high-maintainance and sophisticated. Today is the perfect time to take my time to enjoy the great food and champaign. ![](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg--OeESACI/AAAAAAAAEVo/-lXd8Gq6jIA/s400/IMG_0715.JPG) ![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg--OLJ4hvI/AAAAAAAAEVg/JQGpRmwl_H0/s400/IMG_0710.JPG)
Balanced flavor from different ingredients is the key to a perfect bite. A little saltiness from the meat, a little sweetness from the dry fruit, plus the earthy and creamy flavor from the cheese and the texture from the bread. It's simply just perfect. ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg-_64tbpbI/AAAAAAAAEV4/ABrZjN-DEZo/s400/IMG_0730.JPG) ![](http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg-_6RzRyiI/AAAAAAAAEVw/IkmHT080Mko/s400/IMG_0754.JPG)
By the way, I did all the plating myself. See, when one has too much time on hand, one can at least play with food, and enjoy perfect bites. ![](http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg_DpORTsAI/AAAAAAAAEWY/AWmcRMhjMb4/s400/IMG_0774.JPG) ![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg_Do4_ly3I/AAAAAAAAEWQ/W8vJqzYQDDI/s400/IMG_0766.JPG)
这几个做烤肉的师傅,专门做的一盘烤肉拼盘,牛肉,羊肉,猪肉,三文鱼各一小块。是个意思。主要是吃情调吧。 ![](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NxWCCZ3uGu0/Sg_BqZff2xI/AAAAAAAAEWI/CLAfBOR6Yt0/s400/IMG_0789.JPG)
