Photown – a hidden gem in Alexandria


I realised recently that I hadn’t blogged for over a year! My excuse is that I had been planning my wedding for over a year, which took over my life for the most part! Now that the wedding is done and dusted,  I will definately be more active on my blog. Will do more than take photos of food and Instagram them which is what … Continue reading Photown – a hidden gem in Alexandria

Mokoji Japanese BBQ


When my friend suggested going to this restaurant for our group dinner I was intrigued. I had particularly craved Japanese BBQ which I used to really enjoy at Suminoya (Sydney) but I hadn’t been there in two years whilst in London. After hearing such high praise from my friend (who lives in the area), I had high expectations for the night. And it actually exceeded my expectations! … Continue reading Mokoji Japanese BBQ

Papaya – a hidden gem in the heart of Mayfair!


I started working in Mayfair last year and it was then that I noticed the lack of asian food in Mayfair. I know that Piccadilly Circus and Chinatown are walkable distances but not really convenient enough to grab a ‘quick lunch’. Amidst the stuffy posh restaurants, lebanese and usual chains, I stumbled upon this restaurant while walking along Lansdowne Row where there are a few restaurants and … Continue reading Papaya – a hidden gem in the heart of Mayfair!

Dinner by Heston…simply divine


Ever since arriving in London almost two years ago, I knew that I had to dine at one of Heston Blumenthal’s restaurants. Since Fat Duck temporarily relocated to Melbourne, it was no longer an option. But there was still Dinner. Last week my boyfriend surprised me by arranging dinner here and we had a wonderful evening. As you would expect from a restaurant of this … Continue reading Dinner by Heston…simply divine

My Westeros experience – Game of Thrones Tour – Dubrovnik 2014 – cont’d


Continuing on from my post back in September, you’ll find a few more locations where GOT was filmed. Hope you enjoy it! Location: The Red Keep – Arched walkways This location (Lovrijenac fortress) was used a fair bit during Season Two, and in Episode One, this shows the scene titled “Knowledge is Power” between Cersei and Littlefinger. In Littlefinger’s case, he declares that knowledge is … Continue reading My Westeros experience – Game of Thrones Tour – Dubrovnik 2014 – cont’d

My Westeros experience – Game of Thrones Tour – Dubrovnik 2014


I was holidaying in Dubrovnik for a week during September 2014 and one of the main highlights of the trip was the Game of Thrones tour. It was a three hour tour and organised by Elite Tours though I booked through Viator.com. I actually booked all my transfers and day trips with Viator and couldn’t recommend them enough. We met on a rainy morning at … Continue reading My Westeros experience – Game of Thrones Tour – Dubrovnik 2014

Lovely Romanian experience! Roxy’s Bistro Bar


We had a wonderful dinner at Roxy’s a couple of weeks ago during our weekend in Bournemouth. As we were in the peak of the summer season, the beaches were pretty busy so we knew that getting a dinner reservation same night at a decent restaurant was going to be something of a mission. Luckily we were able to get one at Roxy’s. With the … Continue reading Lovely Romanian experience! Roxy’s Bistro Bar

St John Restaurant – Nose to Tail eating


This lunch was much anticipated and was organised by a group of aussies who are friends of my partner and who were passing by London last week. It was prebooked by an aussie girl who used to live in London, whom is also a big foodie so I knew it was going to be interesting. The restaurant was very particular in the booking and required … Continue reading St John Restaurant – Nose to Tail eating

Another vietnamese restaurant! Viet Anh Cafe – Camden


I know that I have written quite a few posts on Asian cuisine or Oriental as they call it here in England. It’s only cos I love it so much! There is this one dish that I keep having at a restaurant which I was actually put off after my first visit. The restaurant is called Viet Anh and the dish is a traditional one, … Continue reading Another vietnamese restaurant! Viet Anh Cafe – Camden
