This café isn’t so new on the scene anymore. I think they opened last year and has a wonderfully simple menu of Italian classics. They do an excellent job with the simple classics, pizzas, pastas, risotto with set lunches from 98MOP. The space is sparse but intimate with hanging lamps and wooden tables. Here’s the […]
I have been meaning to dine at the IFT Educational Restaurant for a while and finally got down to it. IFT is the vocational training school to prepare Macau students for the world of hospitality and a career in the culinary arts. I’m an adjunct lecturer there, but haven’t been involved in their cooking training and […]
I love all the dining outlets in Grand Lisboa, from three Michelin starred Robuchon au Dome to the all-day dining Congee and Noodle. We’ve recently started going to the Crystal Lounge more often too – bountiful salads, great sandwiches (over 30 types of cheese and cold cuts to choose your fillings!) and here we have […]
I am so grateful that the husband got last minute resale tickets to Madonna’s Rebel Heart Tour a couple of hours before Sunday’s performance in Studio City Macau (intimate arena with great acoustics) at a quarter of the price.

I am happy to work through festive as every day I take off is an unpaid day as a consultant. I am so grateful for down time so I can focus on the mountain load of work that was dumped on me before everyone went on holidays, no back to back long conference calls, calls over […]
Hope everyone is being fully present and spending time with their loved ones. My friend is over and I cooked, he baked, we read, chatted and laughed until chef came home. I haven’t read Dickens since A levels and forgot all about Scrooge at Christmas, a familiar cartoon that came on TV every year, a […]
