Bacon-wrapped Cherry Tomatoes

I am writing this from Beijing (yes, Beijing again!).

The local time is 10:30 AM and the sky is grey and very overcast (or is it pollution?).

Back in the United States, summer is in full bloom now. The sun is scorching hot, all flowers blossom, young senoritas are strutting their stuff in short shorts, but most evidently, everywhere you turn to, there is a party going on–be in on the beach, at the parks, inside or outside the house, or at the club house. Summer is always fun in the United States.

Since this is the first summer Rasa Malaysia celebrates, I thought I would share some of my favorite summer recipes with you…

Have you ever served grilled cherry tomatoes with bacon at your parties? If not, do try this out. It’s real simple to make but the end results are delicious, pretty, and a total crowd-pleaser for your parties all summer long.

I first had them in Tokyo a few years ago and now am hopelessly hooked. This is also a must-have item for me whenever I have Japanese yakitori…
