When planning a trip, he often books his restaurant adventures before he thinks about hotels. His taste is broad, with Asian, Italian and French heading the list. His world travels to Europe, the Middle East and the Philippines has expanded his taste even more. Mark has visited extensively throughout the United States, with his favorite places New York and Chicago. There is always an adventure when he travels, meeting new people, discovering great places and of course eating.
