My portfolio, musings, amusing(s - that a word? No? K.) and more. Photoshoots over the years, behind the scenes anecdotes, some awesome celebrity encounters (some horrific ones too!). 21 years+ as a journalist in Hong Kong - that's a lot of verbal diarr... um... discourse!

No Champagne pls, It Reminds me of Work
Saw this online and lol'd.
Having attended far too events in my adult life, everything champagne related reminds me of work.
Get me a VLT box any day (that's Vita Lemon Tea!).

Taco Tuesday at 11 Westside: The best tacos and most authentic tacos in Hong Kong
While watching food porn The Final Table on Netflix, Esdras Ochoa and Daniel Eun were talking about opening up a restaurant in Hong Kong and my ears perked up. Then when they mentioned Kennedy Town, I went scrambling for a piece of paper to take note of the address ( FYI: 1/F, The Hudson, 11 Davis Street - Kennedy Town).
HOW have I lived across the street from this fine establishment and never been?! It is by far, THE BEST TACOS I've ever had in my gluttonous, calorific life. OMFG. The week of discovery, we (not the royal 'we', but my roommates and I) were there four times a week. We've culled the frequency down to just hitting the place on Taco Tuesdays (if not our waist, our bank account forewarned us to take it easy). It's come to the point where all in the crew know not to bother us with invites on that holy day of the week. You will find our paw prints on the (difficult to maneuver) glass doors of 11 Westside at 6pm. Well, 6.15pm (you gotta give them chefs time to apron up!), at least once a week.
While most patrons go for the more exotic offerings, we swear by the veggie option(s) too. My fake-chef roommate has split the taco and tried to recreate the same with the ingredients at our barely-used, mostly decorative kitchen, with risible results. We bow down to the maestros in the open kitchen. we are not worthy. Feed us, for we come in peace.

Leaving your stamp...
The magazine I used to work for had a Caine Road entrance to the building. I was with the company for nearly eight years. Seven of 'em, were pretty good. ;0)
Feel like I left my mark on my old stomping ground...
