The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa is truly one of the island’s most ideal resort as its location is pretty perfect. With its own private beachfront facing the pristine Andaman Sea, yet remaining very near to Kuah town, it really has the best of both worlds. Do read about my earlier stays in this splendid resort here and here. We never fail to be impressed with The Westin’s warm welcome, starting with the grand pickup at Langkawi Airport itself. Riding in classy … [Read more...]

DINING AT THE WESTIN RESORT NUSA DUA, BALI
In my earlier post on The Westin Resort Nusa Dua, Bali, I promised that I will share with you my dining experiences in this beautiful resort. When it comes to dining choices, The Westin Resort Nusa Dua is hard to beat. Offering both indoor and alfresco dining, there are 7 outlets to choose from - each one different and unique in its own way. As we were there for only 2 nights, it wasn’t possible to check out all 7 of their F&B outlets. We only managed to eat at 4 of their main outlets, … [Read more...]
THE ST REGIS MACAO – why do I want to go back?
The St Regis Macao is one of the most memorable hotels I’ve ever stayed and it’s an experience I would certainly love to re-live. Without a doubt, the hotel is classy, elegant and spells luxury in every corner - and that is expected of The St Regis. Ever since the Astor family opened the first St Regis in New York in 1904, this golden standard stands steadfastly behind its branding. But then there are so many luxurious hotels in Macao and many of them are very well known, too. So, why The St … [Read more...]
THE WESTIN RESORT NUSA DUA, BALI
Where do I even begin when it comes to The Westin Resort Nusa Dua in Bali? Let me start by saying that our 2-night stay at this fabulous resort was certainly not enough. We barely got to enjoy half of the facilities available in this sprawling resort spanned across a white sand beach facing the Indian Ocean in Nusa Dua on the southern shores of Bali. However, let me share with you what we actually got to experience in this vast resort. Let's check-in! The impressive Main … [Read more...]
IMPERIAL DIM SUM BRUNCH @ CELESTIAL COURT, Sheraton Imperial Kuala Lumpur
There’s a reason why they call it the “Imperial” Dim Sum Brunch at Celestial Court, Sheraton Imperial Kuala Lumpur (and not because of the hotel's name!). The variety and quality of the items listed in the special dim sum menu sure measure up to a royal feast. Happening every Saturday, Sunday and Public Holidays, this dim sum brunch is an excellent way to bond with family and friends over good food. The dim sum dishes are all cooked upon order, so every dish comes to the table freshly … [Read more...]
SPLENDOUR OF SPRING AT LE MEI, LE MÉRIDIEN PUTRAJAYA
In less than a month’s time, we will be ushering in the Year of the Rooster.

In preparation of the upcoming lunar festivities, restaurants have come up with special meal sets for this period. Le Mei is the Chinese restaurant at the newly-opened Le Meridien Putrajaya. It’s so new that everything in this swanky hotel is sparkling with lots of … [Read more...]
Let’s have a PRIME moment @ Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur
For the past 10 years, since its opening in 2006, Prime at the Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur has built up its reputation as one of the city’s favourite place for premium steaks. Living up to its “Prime Grill, Prime Wine, Prime Time” adage, Prime is the place to go for serious steak indulgence. Executive Chef Antoine Rodriguez ensures that every serving of succulent meat is done perfectly: perfectly seared with visibly charred edges yet retaining a tender juicy texture within. Steaks here are usually … [Read more...]
FOUR POINTS BY SHERATON, PUCHONG
Weekend brunch, lunch and hi-tea are quite the norm these days. While the singles and couples prefer the latest hipster cafes in and around town, families with young children prefer to go to places which have special facilities for kids. After all, if kids get to enjoy themselves, the parents would enjoy their meals much better, agree? The Eatery at Four Points by Sheraton in Puchong is one such premise that features a friendly kids-corner for their Weekend Hi-Tea Lunch Buffet. … [Read more...]
THE ANDAMAN, LANGKAWI: DINING INDULGENCES
As the last visit at The Andaman, Langkawi was a short one, besides breakfast at The Restaurant, we dined at two of their other F&B outlets… TEPIAN LAUT As its name suggests, Tepian Laut is “by the sea” and it’s al fresco dining at its best. Beneath huge shady rainforest trees, guests get to feel the raw sea breeze blowing in from the Andaman Sea and that somehow enhances the appetite significantly. The a la carte menu for lunch features a solid selection of local … [Read more...]
