We had planned to have an afternoon tea at this lovely little café while visiting Newbury. This spot was recommended by our extended family, and it sure looked lovely! We decided to go for a quick lunch, a couple days before the planned afternoon tea. Well, it was a good thing we did, since we […]

Jams
While looking for a great place to dine south of the Central Park, I came across this restaurant, placed inside 1 Hotel Central Park. I liked the name of the restaurant, made me think of fun brunch, even though we were going there for dinner. We walked into a hotel lobby space, with a nice […]
The Bladebone
While in London, we got to check out an awesome local pub about 30 minutes outside London. It is not just any “local” pub, but it is an award winning pub! It is a restored 17th-century country pub and garden, offering British menu using local fish and game. The name “Bladebone” comes from the blade […]
The Master Builder’s
While visiting the U.K., we had planned to visit Isle of Wight. We were very excited about visiting the island, but our luck would have it, all the ferries were cancelled on that day due to severe weather… We did make it near the ferry terminal when we heard the news. Well, I am a […]
SUROSS Thai Bistro #2
We first discovered this spot in the summer of 2019. The food was amazing, and we became an instant fan. We haven’t really had the opportunity to go back since then… We thought it would be a great meal to start off the New Year with some clean, tasty Asian food, and we decided to […]

Mr Fogg’s Society of Exploration
While in London, we did more than just traditional afternoon tea. We did something that was different, unique, boozy, and most of all, fun! I discovered a yummy afternoon tea with cocktails at this spot, which is actually one of many Mr. Fogg’s interesting locations. They have several “adventurous bars transporting you back to the […]
Café Trois #2
Since we discovered this café about a couple of month ago, we went back a few more times. One of those time, we tried their brunch menu, which are made to order. We got Pumpkin Latte to get into the autumn mood. It was sweet and comforting, with a nice flavor of cinnamon with the […]
Town House Kensington
I found this lovely-looking afternoon tea, and I really wanted to try it. This spot is inside the beautiful Kensington Hotel. We walked in from the main front door of the Kensington hotel, and the staff guided us towards the back to where the Town House is located. There was a small lounge space right […]
Food on Plane: Virgin Atlantic
I did a few blogs about the Food on Plane, first one in 2015 about ANA and JAL, and then JAL in 2017, and again JAL in 2019. Since we haven’t really traveled abroad via plane in the last few years, other than to Japan, my posts were mainly about the Japanese airlines, on the […]
