On our first day while exploring the Old Quarter on foot, we came by Cho Dong Xuan or Dong Xuan Market which was Hanoi’s largest indoor market. It was a Thursday afternoon and it didn’t look that crowded on the outside so we thought it would be a good time to walk around and have […]

No visit to Hanoi is complete without having a banh mi that many consider as one of the national foods of Vietnam. It is what I call a fusion sandwich as it originated since the French colonialism days. It is so easy to find a banh mi vendor in Hanoi as it’s readily available almost […]

After checking into our hotel, we speedily made our way out to look for the famous Bun Bo Nam Bo whose beef vermicelli was said to be one of the best in Hanoi. If you’re staying in a hotel in the Old Quarter (recommended!), it’s very easy to get around on foot as most of […]

Hello Vietnam! As I’m writing this post, I can still feel that excitement running through my body while reminiscing my holiday moments. I had such an incredible time in Hanoi though it was my first time there. I had wanted to visit Vietnam for the longest time and I didn’t know exactly what to expect […]

In my previous blog post [Getting around London, Green Motion Car Hire and review of Go Native London Bridge], I mentioned about hiring a car if you’re travelling to London which of course you would need to do if you’re planning to do day trips out of London. Driving in London is somewhat tricky because […]

I read about the Pokemon at Changi Airport when I was travelling a few weeks back. When I came back to Singapore, instead of going home straightaway, I thought I would take the Skytrain to all the terminals to check out the Pokemon characters while lugging along all my suitcases and shopping loot, lol. When […]

If you’ve missed my earlier blog post on how to get to Central London from Heathrow Airport, where to rent a car at a reasonable price and which serviced apartment to stay in while in London, read -> Getting around London, Green Motion Car Hire and review of Go Native London Bridge. I was lucky […]

My wanderlust is kicking in again even though I’ve only just returned from a 2-week long holiday. And it seems like I’m having a jolly good time logging my travel stories because it’s such a great way to relive those holiday memories and at the same time, I can sort and archive my photos too […]

School holidays are round the corner! Have you started planning your family vacation? Or perhaps you are considering a family staycation at a kid-friendly hotel in Singapore? Furama RiverFront Singapore has recently launched their Family Rooms and special #FuramaKids staycation bundles that are suitable for families with young children or even teenagers. I was here […]

J had been telling me even before we arrived in KL that we had to go eat this Boat Noodle at Avenue K because he saw it the last time he was here but didn’t have the chance to try. To be honest, we didn’t have a great start while here as we were just […]

Almost coming to an end of my KL travel & eat-venture posts. I’ve shared many good eats in KL so far but I haven’t touched on dining options in Avenue K even though my hotel was only next to it. So in my final 2 KL posts, I shall feature two restaurants in Avenue K […]

I met up with J for lunch at Suria KLCC. We wanted to go Madam Kwan’s initially but the queue was just crazy during peak lunch hour. As J didn’t have time for a long leisurely lunch, we settled for Miss Kwan’s Tasty Recipes which is a Quick Service Restaurant of Madam Kwan’s located on […]

After having our scrumptious lunch at Yut Kee Restaurant, we walked to Bukit Nanas KL Monorail Station (near to Dang Wangi LRT Station) to catch the monorail to Hang Tuah as we wanted to visit the KWC Kenanga Wholesale City which is Malaysia’s first fashion wholesale and retail mall. You can also take the LRT […]

Yut Kee Restaurant has been serving up traditional Hainanese fare since 1928. It is one of the oldest kopitiam names in KL and is also one of the most popular breakfast places to go to for both locals and tourists. It was previously located along Jalan Dang Wangi (just a right-angled turn from its current […]

After our quick snack of Brickfields Pisang Goreng, we walked back to KL Sentral to get our train tickets to go to Mid Valley Megamall. Wasn’t actually planning to go there to shop or anything like that but because J had worked there for a period of time while on his previous business trips and […]

After spending the morning and early afternoon exploring Chinatown, we hopped back on the LRT and made our way to KL Sentral which is the main railway hub of KL as we wanted to catch another train to Mid Valley. Before that, we walked out to Brickfields a.k.a. Little India to look for this highly […]
