The eating options in a town like Honkers are sure to bring satisfaction to just about any fussy visitor. While some may just want to tuck into the local specialties and ignore other cuisine options, I like to mix it up a tad. Here’s a run-down of the bunch of places we sunk our teeth into. Bare [...]

Here we have another epic compilation carrying on from where I left off with the previous Manhattan Munchies post. Let’s start with another restaurant by Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich - Otto Enoteca Pizzeria. The restaurant sits in the sprawling ground floor of the art deco One Fifth Avenue building and is modelled on an old Italian [...]

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since I last took a holiday. September last year in Italy, pre-blogging days.

This town really is equipped for crazy foodies such as myself but sadly my time here is quickly diminishing before I meet up with Miss B and get the train up to Shenzhen. My wanderings around the gritty streets of East Tsim Sha Tsui revealed countless places to eat at, one of which has a slight European feel to it with [...]
