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 […]

We checked out Art Basel over the weekend really briefly. The toddler likes looking at things – partly because I also love looking at things and we’ve been going to galleries since he was a newborn. He’s just alot more opinionated and vocal these days as a toddler. I’ve been trying to catch up with […]

Chef Vicky is a dear friend and also a fantastic chef that knows the ins and outs of Chinese and French cooking. He’s my King of Soups. And we all know the hallmark of a good Cantonese soup is the rich but subtle flavours – the essence of all the best produce (fish maw, sea […]

Happy International Women’s Day! I wish women were celebrated every single day and didn’t need a specific day/excuse for this. This is a long overdue post that I didn’t have time to finish, much less edit, before the horrors of Russian invasion of Ukraine. If you have spare change and want to donate or help, […]

I was really lucky to get VIP tickets from a friend to the preview of Digital Art Fair Asia 2021 – the debut in Hong Kong and a personal tour from James Neary himself, the co-founder of the fair. Turkish American artist Refik Anadol’s genius masterpieces headlined the show. I was first acquainted with his […]
