Minsu Experience At Vienna Pleasance Cottage, Nantou Taiwan
Not known to many, Nantou County is an Asian paradise that lies at the geographical heart of Taiwan. Although it is the only county that does not border Taiwan’s coast, it’s breathtaking mountainous scenery more than made up for it. We will be heading up to Vienna Pleasance Cottage, our Minsu (Bed & Breakfast) at Renai […]
The Baker Boy At Viridian Art House Made My Sunday Fabulous!
Instead of having my usual economical bee hoon downstairs, I decided to be more atas and check out the all-day breakfast at The Fabulous Baker Boy @ The Viridian Art House along The Foothills Of Fort Canning Park. Why The Fabulous Baker Boy specifically? Well, the name sounds fun (well, agreed that it’s kinda gay) […]

Tasty Congee & Noodles Wantun Shop (正斗粥麵專家), Hong Kong
If you have the word ‘Tasty’ included in your brand, you better be able to live up to it. Tasty Congee & Noodles Wantun Shop (正斗粥麵專家) was recommended by one of my colleague who frequent Hong Kong quite regularly. They received “Best of the Best Culinary Award –Gold with Distinction Award” from Hong Kong Tourism Board and […]
Bombay Dreams – Best Indian Lunch Buffet In Hong Kong
Indian cuisine is probably not on many tourists’ Must Try List in Hong Kong. With so many mouth watering options for great dim sum, wanton noodles, roasted meat joints and desserts, I would not have visited Bombay Dreams if not for Shinichi strong recommendation. Having spent a significant period of time in India, he claims that […]
Parco Caffe – Park Al Fresco Dining With Indoor Comfort
Parco Caffè is one of those unique off-the-beaten-track dining destinations that marketers should check out for private or corporate event options. Located in the much forgotten Raeburn Park (site of old Gan Eng Seng School) just behind the former Tanjong Pagar Railway Station, this charming restaurant is almost impossible to get to without a car. But its inaccessibility […]
Pat Na Shan (Mount Butler) & Jardine’s Lookout, Hong Kong
My initial plan for the day was really simple and definitely not as tough. I was looking at a half day trip up The Peak – one of Hong Kong’s most popular tourist attraction, taking the historical Peak Tram Ride up and spending the afternoon shopping at The Peak Market. Little did I know that my […]
Yu Man Fang 譽滿坊 – Deliciously Queer Hong Kong Dim Sum

It is an upper income residential area located on Hong Kong Island. The […]
Mak’s Noodles – Best Wonton Noodles In Hong Kong?
Mak’s Noodles was mentioned and agreed by many of my Facebook friends as The Best Wanton Noodles in Hong Kong when I asked where are the ‘Die Die Must Try’ food places in the city. Having come all the way from Singapore, I am definitely not going to leave without getting a taste and giving […]
Yee Shun Milk Company – Legendary Steamed Milk, Hong Kong
Yee Shun Milk Company Legendary Steamed Milk was a chance encounter during my recent trip to Hong Kong. In fact, the concept of a milk company that set up a walk-in F&B outlet was foreign to me. Aren’t they supposed to just milk their cows in some distant land, pasteurise the liquid and have it […]
Battling Dungeness Crabs With Hammers At The Cajun Kings
When we accepted the birthday dinner invitation for one of our close friends at The Cajun Kings, we had absolutely no idea what we were in for. The facts only hit us when we were deliberating over the menu. Choices for mains were amazingly limited and we eventually have to settle for Dungeness Crabs as our […]
