With Hong Kong home to a large population of French nationals, it’s no wonder we have quite a number of French restaurants too. I personally haven’t tried too many French restaurants here in Hong Kong – the other place I had tried was Plat du Jour for a friend’s birthday, […]
Visiting Hong Kong is never complete without a meal feasting on the amazing dim sum that the city has to offer. Dim sum is actually a Cantonese translation of the Chinese word 點心 which can be loosely translated to little bites/pieces – which makes sense since dim sum dishes are […]
This week we had the pleasure of trying out Pirata Group’s latest Hong Kong addition Chaiwala. Centered around modern Indian cuisine, the entrance to this quirky little establishment isn’t so straightforward. The address: 43-55 Wyndham Street, Central, Hong Kong. This leads you to a big blue bright door that says Hugger […]
This week my friend and I had the pleasure visiting this newly established little restaurant hidden within the design/hipster side of Wan Chai. Hidden just off St Francis Street in Wan Chai, is FRANCIS – an intimate little restaurant bringing the best of Middle Eastern cuisine to the internationally diverse city that is Hong […]
An absolute must-do when visiting Shanghai is of course savouring every possible xiao long bao (小笼包 soup dumpling) you let in sight (not actually kidding). You can literally find xiao long bao’s in every Chinese/local restaurant, but how can you ensure that you’re not wasting your calories on what’s just […]
This evening we headed out to Uma Nota in Soho, Central to celebrate one of my good friend’s birthday. I first probably was introduced to Brazilian/Japanese/Peruvian food back in my early 20’s, trying out fusion Japanese/Peruvian dishes at Nobu back in Melbourne, who do an amazing job at complementing fresh seafood/sashimi […]
One of the perks of living & working in Hong Kong is the insane amount (not complaining) of public holidays we have! During the mid-autumn festival, I head off to Busan in Korea for a quick 4 day getaway. One of the things we didn’t realise when planning was that […]
Back in late June this year, a few of us headed up to Shanghai for the long weekend! Although I love Hong Kong, sometimes it’s really nice to get away to Shanghai for a short 3-4 day trip and just experience the amazing space, arts & culture and of course […]
Tucked away amidst all the antique shops and burgeoning brunch/hipster cafes in the very trendy neighbourhood of Sheung Wan, lies “For Kee Restaurant” (科記咖啡室), Hong Kong’s best pork chop rice! A small yet insanely busy & popular pork chop house, run by a few kind old folks (potentially a family […]
Earlier this year I headed off to Xiamen, China primarily to explore the Hakka roundhouses (tulou cluster houses) that are a UNESCO heritage site. (Click here for my video on the Hakka Houses) We flew into Xiamen, China from Hong Kong just for a short weekend getaway, flights cost around […]
