If you ever get the chance to visit Asia, you must must must make a 3-day swing by Hong Kong. The taste, the sight and general culture is something to crave for. I’ve spoken with a lot of Americans lately and have asked politely if they’ve ever been to Asia. 9 out of 10 would say they haven’t. And so I’ve acted like a little ambassador to tell them, “you should! THAT side of the world needs to be experienced”.
Hong Kong is one of the great centres for international cooking. Apart from Chinese food, which is superb, there are also many Indian, Vietnamese, Filipino, Singapore/Malaysian and Thai restaurants. It is the home of authentic Chinese food from all the regions of China, which may be sampled on a sampan in Causeway Bay, on a floating restaurant at Aberdeen, in a Kowloon restaurant, in a street market or at a deluxe hotel. Hotels serve European and Chinese food but there are also restaurants serving every type of local cuisine.
Ok… food may not be a great incentive to my American friends… so let’s talk about shopping… or nightlife!

We’re right smack in the middle of the Winter Olympics. Have your kids gotten into the spirit of it all yet? It saddens me that today, some kids would rather play sports via the PlayStation (or any other gaming console) than actually go outdoors and kick some butt. With the Winter Olympics [...]
Every house has a first aid kit. That is basic knowledge. But do you have an emergency kit that will help keep you alive just in case you experience a natural disaster? At this point, many families in the Philippines are creating their own disaster emergency kits, if they haven’t got one [...]
