One Harbour Road at the Grand Hyatt is our regular haunt. We’re here at least twice a month for yumcha and it’s what the toddler looks forward to every week. I’m surprised it doesn’t have a Michelin star even though it’s on the Guide’s radar. I know it does huge volume, but the quality is […]
I did a street photography workshop with Wander With Nicole in June and didn’t have a chance to look at the photos I took till recently. We had a great Summer away for 5 weeks, quality time spent with grandparents on both sides and we’ve been back at school for 2 weeks now. The dust […]
I feel like I can never get a break as the whole family is sick and the toddler has been sick for 3 weeks. I haven’t slept much in the past weeks with the cycles of raging high fevers, multiple trips to the paediatrician, multiple swabs, the same cycles of medication we’ve cycled through bottles […]
I finally understand the sacrifices, sheer exhaustion and reality of balancing life and motherhood now that I’ve got a spirited 2.5 year old. In between, life and death happens. I didn’t realise I’d start losing so many friends in my late 30s and now 40s, it feels even more common place. We’re no longer young, […]
Finished a piece for Little Steps Asia and including some of my personal favourites. Get it catered! Making sure everyone is fed and happy is essential to host a great party. @CookingwithAlix is run by a French Mum who offers catering, meal planning and cooking classes (adults and kids) for simple, healthy meals. It couldn’t get more […]
I highly recommend a visit to the Palace Museum. I liked it much better than the Taipei National Museum that’s full of very old things – too many of the same after a while for a philistine like me. The Hong Kong Palace Museum has a beautiful curated selection of modern and old things, and […]
Moxie is a spot has become a regular lunch date venue for us on my husband’s day off; the menu is plant-forward, the dishes simple- letting the sustainably sourced produce shine and do all the work, yet tasty and robust. Led by Head Chef Michael Smith, the menu is evolving seasonally, along with the ingredients […]
It’s been many years since I’d been back to Spring Moon at Peninsula Hotel and was happy to revisit when my friend S decided on yumcha for her birthday. This is a very belated, hence short post as my failing memory as a full-time mum also doesn’t afford me the luxury to take notes or […]
We finally got round to visiting the M+ museum and absolutely loved it. The Sig Collection was a real joy to discover (more so than for my toddler). The scale and design of M+ Museum Hong Kong by Herzog & de Meuron is stunning and puts Hong Kong on the map with the global institutions […]
We experienced our first Secret Theatre at Tai Kwun when the heritage arts centre first reopened. It was a murder mystery to be solved and we sat in the jury deciding if the defendant was guilty or not. We also got to sit in a jail cell to talk to the Hannibal Lector character and […]
