Fresh seafood in Mae Ram Phueng (หาดแม่รำพึง)

One of the highlights of my trip to Mae Ram Phueng (หาดแม่รำพึง), Rayong was the abundance of fresh and cheap seafood. Some stretches of the beach are lined up with several restaurants cooking up all kinds of seafood of the pick and choose variety. You have a look at the...

Lunch with a view in Seminyak, Bali – Sardine Restaurant

Back from a relaxing weekend in Bali, it is not photos of beaches that I want to share but rather of the great view we had enjoying lunch at Sardine Restaurant in Seminyak: If you’re in the area, check it out. The view alone is worth it. The fact that...

Talpe Beach Club near Galle

After an afternoon under the blazing hot sun exploring Galle, we decided against having dinner in one of the town’s restaurants and instead made our way to Talpe – a beach town about a 20mins bus ride along the coast. We discovered the Talpe Beach Restaurant & Bar through Tripadvisor as...

Kuala Lumpur: great, casual Indian food

Sunday morning we had a craving for Indian food. There is definitely no shortage of Indian food in KL, thanks to approx. 10% of the population being of Indian descent. We didn’t do any research, but instead just walked to Jalan Masjid India and tried to find a place there....

Quest: Finding the best Döner Kebab in Singapore

My friends would confirm that I am a big fan of Turkish food, particularly Döner Kebab. It is an ingenious mixture of vegetable, meats, tasty bread, sauce and a decent portion of grease. While probably not the healthiest of Turkish food, it does leave you with an odd sense of...

Taipei: superb Sushi (三味食堂)

On a recent trip to Taiwan, we stumbled into an outstanding Sushi restaurant that is worthwhile sharing. We were just innocently drinking our Bubble Tea #3 of the day at 哈奶舖販賣店 when a fellow traveller asked us whether we are also waiting to get a table at the restaurant next door. Turns out...
