Where to Go for an Event Dinner in Bruges? Bistro Bruut

One of Europe’s most popular tourist destinations, the gorgeous, compact, medieval city of Bruges, or, better, Brugge, isn’t short on fine dining options: 10 places hold Michelin stars, while one boasts two. But if you’re looking for something spectacular, surprising, but not too formal, I 

Indonesia’s First Venezuelan Restaurant

Indonesia’s First Venezuelan Restaurant

Compared to, say, Brazil, Mexico, Peru or even Argentina, Venezuelan food has yet to make its impact on the world stage. Which makes Warung Venezuela, a tiny but perfectly formed arepera that just landed in Canggu, Bali, an exciting development. It’s not just Bali’s first

Where to Go for a Drink in Ubud

Let’s face it, health-conscious Ubud isn’t the number one place you’d choose to go for a drink. Bali’s spirituality capital seems to pretty much shut down come 9pm, even at the busiest times. Yet, surprisingly, over the last couple of years, Ubud has managed to

In Singapore? Why Not Try the High Tea at Raffles?

Singapore Slings at the Long Bar in Raffles, Singapore’s answer to the soon-to-reopen Ritz Paris, are a rite of passage for anyone visiting Singapore: both the hotel and the drink are older than the nation. But if you’re after a colonial fix while in Singapore,
