We ate a lot of food in our three days in Singapore. There’s heaps of western food to be eaten, Asian delights and even ice-cream vendors on every other street. But not all food in Singapore was created equal. Oh no. We had some hits, but we also had some misses, even at famed Michelin […]

Where to eat in Hong Kong
Everywhere you look in Hong Kong there’s food to eat. Due to the cultural heritage of the place and the influence of the British, such vast extremes, from my fave English lunch spot Pret a Manger right through to Cantonese local cuisine…and a lot that lies somewhere in the space between. There’s also a myriad […]
Chiang Mai – A coffee lovers heaven
The northern city of Chiang Mai is pretty special. There’s good coffee everywhere and a bunch of cafes to get it. We love our coffee and because there’s no end of places to pick up an iced cold or velvety smooth coffee, it’s pretty much a hipster-coffee-loving-paradise. Here’s the list of the places we hit up and would go back to.
Our top 10 to eat and drink in Queenstown and her surrounds
1. Madam Woo They describe the food as ‘fresh Malaysian hawker-style’ and I think they might just be under-selling themselves a touch (having enjoyed the street food of Malaysia ourselves), this is next level. The food is yum, the place is cool with funky vibes and the service we experienced was some of the best […]
A decent list of places to eat on the North Coast
Not our first visit to the North Coast, but another chance to eat all the food, explore the beaches and go back to some of our favourite spots we’ve been to before. This time, we threw in some new places too…otherwise, life would be a little less well-travelled. Bangalow, Byron and Ballina are the three beautiful B’s we like to visit when we visit our magical family here. While here, this is where we ate.
Where to Eat in Hoi An
Four days in Hoi An was never going to be long enough to eat all the food. We had loads of places on our list before we even arrived, and after wandering the town for a day or two, the list grew and the number of mealtimes left quickly decreased. I’m not going to lie, […]

Where to eat and drink in Hanoi
If you’re into food, Vietnam is heaven. We’re into food and there was no stopping us. From the minute we landed in Hanoi, our mission was clear. Eat the food. Eat all the food. This is where we ate and drank and then ate some more. Giang Cafe For weird, but delicious egg coffee. Giang […]
Saigon or Ho Chi Minh if you prefer
As a tourist from the outside looking in and planning your trip, you’ll be busying yourself searching for all things Ho Chi Minh. When you turn up though, the locals will refer to the city as Saigon and let’s be honest, it’s way easier to spell. We turned up in this hectic, crazy, mental city […]

Fiji – No Worry
We’re not really ‘a week away in the islands’ kinda people. We generally make the most of a long weekend, or escape for three months somewhere, so this trip to Fiji was a little different for us. A wedding on Tuesday gave us the perfect opportunity to escape the winter rains and head to sunny […]
5 places to taste a little wine in the Hawkes Bay
Hawkes Bay is one of the most incredible wine regions in New Zealand and if you know anything about us, we like to drink wine, so it makes sense this is where I took Mike for his 30th. In two and a half days we hit up 5 wineries and a couple more decent places […]
