Launch of “MEATOLOGY” by Chef Yenni Law
In the short space of time that I had interacted with Chef Yenni Law, I found that I enjoyed her company very much. Oh she was quick to tell me to quit calling her “chef” and insisted that I just call her by her name. I met Yenni for the very first time at the media launch of her cookbook “Meatology” at her restaurant, Boathouse in Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur. Yenni was in the midst of an interview when I spotted her and I thought she kinda looked a bit ill-at-ease when the cameras … [Read more...]
Dining at Crave & chilling out at W XYZ Bar, Aloft Bangkok
In our recent trip to Bangkok, we chose to stay at the Sukhumvit area and Aloft Bangkok was a natural choice. The hotel is located in Soi 11, quite possibly one of the hippest spots in town. All around the hotel are bars, cafes, restaurants, shopping outlets and the Nana BTS Skytrain and MRT station are all in the vicinity. Just like the other Alofts, Aloft Bangkok shines with the same urban hip with modern savvy design as its theme. The hotel, with all its outlets, breathe “energy” and “fun” … [Read more...]

SOULed OUT Sri Harts – refreshed and rejuvenated!
I still remember the first time I stepped into SOULed OUT when they opened in Mont Kiara, way back in 1996. I remember that little restaurant was perched on a small slope in that housing area. I had met Michele Kwok and Fred Choo on a holiday trip earlier and when they started this cafe, we were invited to check it out. From that humble cafe, SOULed OUT has flourished and is a very popular venue for folks in the Mont Kiara/Sri Hartamas area and of course its popularity has spread much much … [Read more...]
