Hi, everyone! This week, let me take you to the two best seafood restaurants in Malaysia: Restoran Makanan Laut Jeti and Veg Fish Farm Thai. The content in this blog post is my own opinion and it’s not a paid post 😉 Actually, this blog post is inspired by my colleagues. On certain occasions, some colleagues from the Cyprus office will come to Malaysia and they are mostly white. One day, during a company event, I saw a colleague happily filled up his plate with crispy butter prawns. He said that he never had it before, especially the butter crisps. Him: “It’s very nice!! We don’t have this in Cyprus.”…

Hanoi Trip: Bánh Mì, Café Dinh Egg Coffee, Train Street, Sen Tây Hồ Buffet
This week, let me take you on a food tour in Hanoi! We’ll be sampling the famous bánh mì (Vietnamese-style baguette), Café Dinh’s egg coffee, and visitting the train street + a popular buffet restaurant, Sen Tây Hồ 😋 I had one last good brunch on Era Cruises before the tour group departed for Hanoi. It was good weather for a Hanoi trip, not too sunny or cloudy. There was a small boat that transferred us back to the cruise port. From Halong Bay, we took the express highway and reached Hanoi in just two hours. Else, it would take four hours! On the way to Hanoi, we stopped in a…

White and Blue Christmas at Koral Restaurant, Apurva Kempinski Bali
Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you had a great holiday and Christmas (for those who are celebrating)🎉🎉🎉 I had a memorable Christmas celebration with my mother and sister at Koral Restaurant, a fine dining restaurant under the sea. Since the restaurant was inside Apurva Kempinski Bali, we also stayed for one night there. This white and blue Christmas dinner was part of my impulsive travel bookings that I didn’t regret. If you’ve been following my blog, you may remember that in early 2022, I made some impulsive travel bookings. There were consequences to my actions, of course. I was always careful with my spending, but because of my impulsiveness,…

Exploring Louvre & Angelina Paris on Bastille Day
I’ve been writing about my trip in Paris for the past weeks and it’s still continuing. I spent only two days in the City of Love but I have so much to share! This week, I will take you to Louvre and see the Bastille Day celebration nearby the museum. In addition, I will also take you to Angelina, a famous cafe in Paris where I had to queue for 30 minutes. Don’t worry, I also visited other parts of France, so you won’t see many posts about Paris 😉 I was lucky to have my second day in Paris on 14 July 2022, exactly on Bastille Day. It’s a…

3 Michelin Star Review: Epicure, Paris
Aloha, friends! It feels bittersweet returning from the summer holiday, but life goes on. This week, let me share my first 3 Michelin star dining experience at Epicure, Hotel Le Bristol, Paris 👌✨ For those who are wondering how I managed to get a spot at this upscale hotel restaurant and where the budget came from, you can read my previous blog post here. I’ve dined in some middle-high class restaurants before and recently had my team diner at Nobu, Kuala Lumpur. I feel the food and service at Nobu are great but compared to the 3 Michelin star standard like what I had at Epicure, Paris… It’s another level…

Now We Can Dine-in, What to Eat in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor?
Now that Kuala Lumpur and Selangor are in Phase 2 of MCO (Movement Control Order), the Malaysian government announced that inter-district travel and dine-in are allowed. As a foodie, that means I can cross districts to eat my favourite foods ?? Before this, I always (and still) used a food delivery app to order my lunch and dinner – which is one of my company’s amazing benefits. It’s very convenient, but sadly the riders can’t deliver food from other districts. So you can imagine how happy I was when the restrictions were lifted! I no longer have to depend on the delivery riders, but can personally go to my favourite…

Breakfast and Birdwatching at M.P.S. Village, Sri Lanka
In the previous blog post, I shared that to travel is also to enjoy food. In addition, I feel that your travel experience is also affected by your choice of accommodation. This isn’t a paid post. I just want to share my experience staying at M.P.S. Village, a budget hotel in Sri Lanka with a wonderful view and yummy breakfast. Imagine hearing the sound of peacocks and other kinds of birds while enjoying your breakfast! Peacocks? Where do they come from? I’ll tell you later 😉 M.P.S. Village, a Budget Hotel Surrounded by Greens and Birds First of all, this beautiful budget hotel isn’t located in Dambulla city center. You…
