The St. Pancras Renaissance London Hotel is housed in one of the most beautiful buildings in London, if you actually ever stop, and take a moment to look up. It truly is breath taking, yet there are far too many times we have passed through it, and not stopped to appreciate it. The sheer grandeur, of the gothic architecture […]
Some may better know Asha Bhosle for her music but we can’t get over her amazing restaurants that celebrate Indian cuisine. The traditional North Indian cuisine is authentic, with a rather contemporary, modern take. Asha’s first restaurant is housed in the Pyramids of Wafi Mall and has stood the test of time. It is as stylish […]

The elegant single white rose, that stands tall at the entrance of Vanita’s captures the sense of romance and charm, that is Vanita’s. The waterfront, signature Italian restaurant at the Palazzo Versace Hotel overlooks the Dubai Creek. It’s an utterly luxurious restaurant, that is a tribute true to Versace grandeur. There’s something rather endearing about […]
There’s high expectations of Indian cuisine in Dubai as it is usually rather authentic as many of the chefs are from India. Nina’s fine dining Indian completely exceeds expectations as this restaurant is rather extraordinary at the One & Only, Royal Mirage. They are pushing the boundaries with their take on Indian classics and have created […]
There’s an allure about Dubai that keeps us going back year after year. The one year we decided to give it a miss, as soon as the year had passed, we had an overwhelming feeling of withdrawal and immediately booked another trip, to fly out the very next day. Spontaneous and desperate, driven for some winter sun, […]
Everyone knows that a trip to Denmark would not be complete without dining at the infamous Noma, voted number one best restaurant in the world for many years. Having waited years to visit Copenhagen with the hope of a reservation at Noma, we finally gave up waiting. Having periodically tried to book a table at Noma […]
When you think of fresh food and fast food they are usually mutually exclusive. Farmstand have redefined fast food in the heart of Covent Garden.

Victoria has seen a fair few new restaurants pop up in Nova complex recently. Hai Cenato is just one of Jason Atherton’s trendy New York style eateries that is definitely worth a look in.

There’s something rather reassuring about visiting a restaurant that has been able to stand the test of time. Royal China’s reputation precedes it, particularly for the dim sum. There’s a sense of nostalgia in the Queensway branch, with the distinct, black and gold lacquered décor. It may look modest from the outside but it’s rather deceiving. The restaurant is huge, […]
Buffets are a really fun way to try new cuisines and completely overindulge. With over 150 dishes from all over the world, East meets West at Cosmo. It really is a feast for the eyes as much as it is for the palate. Walking in one can’t help but stop at the enormous dessert counter and the […]
Venice is one of the most fabulous cities in the world. Maybe we’re a bit biased, with fond memories of the dream marriage proposal there, many years ago. Bobbing up and down on a gondola, on the Grand Canal, whilst passing beneath The Bridge of Sighs. Being serenaded with a singing gondolier, who even shed a tear for the […]
The One & Only Royal Mirage is called the “one and only” for a reason. They pull out all the stops to make you feel rather special. Celebrities is their fine dining restaurant which is just as glam and glitzy as one would imagine. The gold décor is elegant and the huge crystal chandeliers impressive. […]
The New York Café is referred to as “the most beautiful café in the world.” So if that doesn’t set expectations high- what does? Having visited some interesting cafe’s over the years in Japan, we really did not know what to expect. Slightly sceptical initially, we were in fact completely blown away. It is most definitely worthy of […]
