Earlier this year, a friend and I went to the Espirit Dior exhibition at Dongdaemun Design Plaza. My knowledge of the brand comes in the form of a couple of purses and some makeup purchased at the LVMH sample sale a couple of years ago (not worth the wait IMHO) but attending the exhibition, reading about the… Continue reading Cafe Dior Seoul
I’ve been on a bit of a Japanese food binge recently opting for the subtle flavours of fresh fish and clean seasonings that Japanese cuisine has to offer. For awhile, it was pretty difficult to find exceptional sushi without paying an arm and a leg but there have been a few places cropping up here… Continue reading Ogawa Seoul
So this post is dedicated to my best friend Mark, who has plied me with food, gotten me fat and has waited patiently for me to write about it on my blog. Hong Kong has a pretty amazing food scene right now. I would say on par with New York, Los Angeles, Sydney and everywhere else… Continue reading Fish. Meat. Lime. Wood.
Most people know how much of a Seoul snob I am and occasionally when I feel like I’ve been north of the river too often, I’ll take a break for awhile and stay on my side of town. I know, I know, I am a terrible person. Of course exceptions must be made, like when a… Continue reading Power Plant at D Tower
As far as blogging goes, I’ve been pretty rubbish recently. Considering how much time I spent on my MacBook Air, it’s embarrassing how little I’ve been writing. That being said, there are some things that you just have to write about and good food is one of them. This isn’t a comparison post as the… Continue reading Man(imal) vs. Beast(ro)
If there was one word to describe Bover Lounge, it would be luxury. The luxury of space, the luxury of time, the luxury of money, the luxury of… well anything really. The place reminds me of the occasional three hour lunches I would have with my tai tai girlfriends in Hong Kong, where they would… Continue reading Girl Date at Bover Lounge
A few years ago, when my best friend and I were roommates, she came home after a huge break up. When you live with your best friend there are things you just kinda know straight off the bat so before she was able to burst into tears, I grabbed a pint of ice cream, a… Continue reading Gelato Solves Everything
I mentioned in my previous post that there are much better places for salad in Seoul and this is it. I’ve eaten enough salad in the past ten weeks to last me a lifetime and I think that given the circumstances, I can say I’ve become quite the connoisseur when it comes to my greens.… Continue reading Bad Rabbit
I’ve just returned from a business trip to Singapore where my taste buds have been assaulted with a smorgasbord of fragrant spices and exotic flavours you don’t normally find outside of South East Asia. When in Rome, you do as the locals do and indulge in the black pepper crab, Hainanese chicken rice and Peranakan… Continue reading Farm to Table
There is something really magical about sunlight streaming through floor to ceiling windows on a freezing cold day, kind of like you’ve taken something that wasn’t meant to be there in the first place. It felt really nice sitting by the window at Bills, basking in the sun indoors despite the strong winds and -11 degrees… Continue reading Brunch at Bills
