“We’re going to a pop up restaurant tonight” it was explained. “Oooh! This should be interesting” I said all excited.

Wellington on a Plate-New Zealand

August 17, 2010 Places

I’m ashamed to admit that in all the time I’ve been travelling to New Zealand, I had never been to Wellington.  I may be a little late to the party but I think I certainly made up for it with my recent visit there.  Myself and three other food bloggers made our way “across the [...]

Redleaf-A South Coast Getaway

June 27, 2010 Places

After the excitement of holidaying in Thailand, our group vowed to get together again and enjoy another getaway-this time somewhere a little closer to home.  After a few months of planning we settled on a weekend away on the “South Coast” of NSW.  This post is a little late in the making…I mean this happened [...]

The Four Seasons Resort-Koh Samui-Pt 2

January 6, 2010 Places

In this post I wanted to highlight the food  and drinks we enjoyed whilst we stayed at The Four Seasons.  A sort of general “overview”.  It really helps when you travel with like minded people as everyone was willing to try bits of everything!  For research of course!   One of my friends felt hungry [...]

My first post for 2010 will be about something I did last year.  I had this planned for a few months ago but after all the “technical” difficulties I experienced I thought best to wait till the new year.  Back in September when I vacationed in Koh Samui, I was also very privileged to stay [...]

Thai Cooking Classes

October 8, 2009 Places

Attending Thai cooking classes was probably one of the major highlights of my recent holiday.  As much as I am familiar with Thai food, there is nothing like getting to the grass roots of it all and gaining a better understanding of how this cuisine works.  The wonderful people at the Sareeraya resort hold cooking [...]

Seafood Barbecue On The Beach

September 28, 2009 Places

After a “hard” day’s swimming around the islands located in the Gulf of Thailand there was really no better way to end it than with a private seafood barbecue right on the beach!  Ok…let me clarify.  It wasn’t a traditional “bonfire” type of barbecue.  It was a beautiful table set up for dinner on the [...]

Swimming in Samui

September 23, 2009 Places

One of the activities we set out to do whilst in Koh Samui was to hire a boat and explore the local islands.  We were all keen to leave the comfort of our resort chairs and go snorkeling, swimming and seek a bit of adventure on the high seas!    After much research we decided to [...]

Koh Samui

September 18, 2009 Places

I’m back from paradise folks!  I’m recharged, relaxed and ready for the rat race again!  Admittedly, I was only away for about 9 days but it felt longer than that.  Koh Samui was a wonderful experience and I’m keen to go back again sometime in the near future.  I’ve been to Thailand many times but [...]
