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 […]
Holy Smokes, we love this place. It doesn’t stop. People everywhere. Noises, smells and all the food. It’s also this crazy juxtaposition between east and west. The hangover from the British empire with shopping malls, high tea and Marks & Spencer and then the tall apartment blocks you’d expect to see, bird markets, street markets […]
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.
Visitors to our wee little New Zealand will without a doubt put Queenstown on the top of their list when they’re heading down to our end of the world. The epic roads, the delicious wine, tasty food, nifty plane landing and the stunning panoramas are up there, but the pictures you would have seen before […]
Queenstown has a little somethin’ somethin’ for pretty much everyone. Whether you’re into jumping off a bridge upside down, tearing down a hill on a child-size trolley (the luge) or sitting back, relaxing and admiring the vistas. We’re more likely to fit into the admiring the vistas bit when in Q-town, but we like to […]
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 […]
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.
We had given ourselves 10 days in Vietnam, thinking ‘Yep, that should probably be enough’. It wasn’t. We made it work because we had too, but I think we missed some of the key spots that you should probably add to your list. Here’s a breakdown of how we spent our short time in one […]
My wordy word, if you haven’t got Hoi An on your list of places to go, you need to check yourself. You need to get it on that list and leave yourself enough time to do all the things and eat all the food.
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, […]
