Fine Dining

Timberyard – Edinburgh, Scotland

Timberyard – Edinburgh, Scotland

One of our best meals of our entire January 2019 trip was probably at TIMBERYARD in Edinburgh, Scotland. Was it because the restaurant was soooo dark that we couldn’t really see our food and assumed it was good? I joke – although, it was very […]

SAN Bruxelles – Brussels, Belgium

SAN Bruxelles – Brussels, Belgium

I don’t quite recall how I heard about SAN BRUXELLES. What I did recall, though, was feeling really excited at eating some modern dishes inspired by Asian flavours. Enough of traditional hearty Flemish food! I did enjoy all that. However, it was time to change […]

Dominique Ansel Bakery Afternoon Tea – London, UK

Dominique Ansel Bakery Afternoon Tea – London, UK

When my friend OS suggested we head to Dominique Ansel’s London outpost while where in town, I couldn’t believe I hadn’t thought of it myself. We’ve visited the Japanese store in Tokyo – and yes, we queued. Rather, I queued while DS went for a […]

Gogärtchen – Kampen, Sylt, Germany

Gogärtchen – Kampen, Sylt, Germany

  A trip to GOGÄRTCHEN is a must for my family every time we’re in Sylt. It’s quite a fine dining restaurant, from the ingredients and the way the food is prepared. However, they have recently adopted a more relaxed approach with the waiters wearing jeans and […]

BEA – Barangaroo, Sydney

BEA – Barangaroo, Sydney

  BEA at Barangaroo, has been one of my favourite new openings recently. Not just in Barangaroo, but in all of Sydney! This was actually my second visit there because my parents loved it so much, we went back a few weeks later with my cousin […]

Muse Kitchen – Pokolbin, Hunter Valley NSW

Muse Kitchen – Pokolbin, Hunter Valley NSW

  My cousin and her (new!) fiance came to visit us in Sydney from Hong Kong a few weeks ago. My cousin in particular has quite an interest in wine. She spent several months working in a beautiful winery in France during the harvest season […]

Été Restaurant – Barangaroo, Sydney

Été Restaurant – Barangaroo, Sydney

My parents are huge fans of Barangaroo. Seriously, they always want to go one of the new restaurants there when we’re going out for dinner! They were completely blown away by BEA the other week (where I forgot to bring my camera, but never fear we’re going back […]

Ronin – Sheung Wan, Hong Kong

Ronin – Sheung Wan, Hong Kong

  Having dinner at RONIN in Hong Kong is truly an experience. Firstly, you’ve got to actually find the restaurant. It’s in one of the tiny streets in Sheung Wan, pretty much at the end of the street, down some stairs and then there’s a grey door […]

nel. Restaurant Christmas Menu 2017 – Sydney, Australia

nel. Restaurant Christmas Menu 2017 – Sydney, Australia

  This week nel. restaurant launched it’s Christmas menu! I was so excited when DS told me he’d booked us in for a date night. You might remember that last year’s Christmas menu made my top eats of 2016! When Chef Nelly Robinson told me that this […]

Cafe Paci ‘Cooking by Colours’ GREEN – @ Mecca Alexandria, Sydney

Cafe Paci ‘Cooking by Colours’ GREEN – @ Mecca Alexandria, Sydney

  On the final night of CAFE PACI’S ‘COOKING BY COLOURS’, CK and I headed over to MECCA in Alexandria for their green menu. If that sentence doesn’t make sense to you, here’s some explanation! A couple of years ago, a wonderful restaurant called CAFE PACI popped up […]
