Three years in Dubai and I haven’t once been to Address Montgomerie- until this week, when I ended up going twice in a week, to 3 different outlets! Here’s how it happened: Links: The first time was for breakfast at Links over …
Day 5 was pretty much a repeat of Day 4. Our plans to go to Khao San didn’t exactly materialize. We both slept in and missed breakfast at the hotel. I wanted us to go swimming in the morning, and M promised …
Day 4 of How to Kill Time in Bangkok. On day 4, we were supposed to check out our hotel in Bangkok and head to Koh Samui. We decided at the last minute, on Day 3, that we would do Phi Phi …
Day 3 of What to do in Bangkok for a Week. For the rest of the days, please skip to the end of the post. After the previous night’s fruitless quest for a decent dinner, I put my foot down and informed …
Day 2 of How to Spend a Week in Bangkok. After a quick breakfast at our hotel, Hilton Sukhumvit, we set off for the Grand Palace, and the GrabCar driver (we hadn’t learnt our GrabCar lesson yet) let us off at a …
Day 1 of How to Spend a Day in Bangkok. Over Eid break this year, we went to Bangkok for a week. To be clear, we were supposed to do 3 days in Bangkok, during which my sister was going to join us …

After a rather disappointing meal at Asia Asia last week, and an insatiate desire for good Chinese food, M and I ventured out to Yuan at The avenues in Atlantis Palm Jumeirah. I wanted to see if Yuan would hit the spot …
During out last two days in Bangkok on our recent trip, we checked out of Hilton Sukhumvit and moved to Movenpick Sukhumvit. I like to move hotels every two days because I find that to be the best way to truly explore …
We don’t usually eat at any of the dining outlets at the airport, and fast-track straight to the Business Class Lounge because free sparkling water trumps everything else and bathrooms that make you feel like you’re in a nice hotel are something …
Last Sunday my friends and I wanted to go out to town (and basically paint it red). We dug out out little black books, made a few calls, and Good Guy Asia Asia welcomed us with open arms, despite a very short …
The one place I surely wanted to visit in Chatuchak Weekend Market, was the JJ Coco kiosk that has attainted international fame by now. If I’m completely honest with myself, I might just realize/have to admit that the biggest reason I went …
Procrastinating on the long list of pending blog posts can be exhausting, and one can use that as an excuse for needing a Spa Day. I’ve never been much of a spa hopper, but ever since I tried The Spa at Palazzo …
Giardino. The all-day-diner that has everything for everyone and is quite possibly Palazzo Versace’s cash cow that got the masses in through the door and granted them affordable access to the luxurious hotel that most can only dream of. Giardino is laden …
