New Year’s Eve in Iceland

read more

New Year’s Eve need not be over rated, anti-climatic and overpriced. Having spent the last six years in different cities, from London, to Orlando, Las Vegas, New York and Abu Dhabi, we love finding a new destination to enjoy the celebrations of New Years Eve. To ring in 2016 we picked Iceland. Iceland has to be one of […]

Hotel Chocolat Boucan, St Lucia

I distinctly remember the day I first heard about Hotel Chocolat and feeing excited there was a chocolate hotel. Until reality struck that it was in fact the name of a premium chocolate brand. Although delighted by their chocolate there was always a slight disappointment that the Hotel Chocolat was merely an illusion of my imagination […]

Fire & Ice -The Best of Iceland

read more

A trip to Iceland was booked slightly naively, solely to hunt for the Northern Lights. Then realisation dawned that if we didn’t see them it would be a pretty disastrous trip. Fortunately Iceland has so much more to offer, than just the Northern Lights, so much so, we almost forgot they were the sole purpose […]

The Blue Lagoon, Iceland

The Blue Lagoon, Iceland

Honeymoons

The Blue Lagoon in Iceland was a surreal experience. In -2 degrees Celsius the thought of braving the elements in swimwear was slightly daunting. The changing rooms are well equipped with heated floors and sophisticated locker systems. We were impressed with the well maintained, pristine, luxury facilities, given this is a tourist hotspot. You can rent towels, slippers and robes for a comfortable spa day. You can also take advantage of massages, face masks to enhance the experience. The geothermal spa is warmed naturally to 38 degrees Celsius. Fortunately you can wade through from an indoor pool into the outdoors. This is a great way to get you acclimatised to the temperatures. As the cold air hits your face the warm water embraces you. Surrounded by mountains snowed in its one of the most amazing places we have been to. It is unimaginable that you could be relaxing in naturally hot lagoon whilst it snows. The 6 million litres of water is enriched with silica, algae and minerals and takes 48 hours to replenishes itself. We were truly marvelled by this experience. The snow falling whilst we bathed made it even more exhilarating. Somehow your face is resilient to the […]

Planning the Perfect Halloween Party

Planning the Perfect Halloween Party

Celebrations

Halloween is fast approaching and if you don’t already have plans, it’s time to start making some! Instead of waiting for an invitation to land on your doormat, why don’t you throw your own spectacularly ghoulish get-together? It doesn’t have to be extravagant or expensive for people to enjoy it. Here’s everything you need to throw a horribly good Halloween party without breaking the bank: Decorations A Halloween party is nothing without the decorations! Supermarkets may be fit to bust with expensive party accessories, but do you really need that mechanical zombie butler? You can still create a spooky effect with some low-cost items. Fake cobwebs are a must — drape them across your furniture to create the look of a dusty, abandoned haunted house. Pumpkins are another essential and they also double up as entertainment for your party. Invite your guests to carve them — the most inventive wins a prize. Food & drink Every Halloween party needs a bumper collection of sweets, so fill large pots and bowls and let your guests tuck in. Of course, you’ll need to counteract all that sugar with some savoury finger food. Choose food that everyone will like and check out sites […]

Godiva Chocolate Cafe, Harrods

Godiva Chocolate Cafe, Harrods

Celebrations Food & Drink

One can only anticipate extraordinary splendour when the most prestigious store in the world, Harrods, and the finest artisan chocolatier, Godiva, join alliance. The Godiva Chocolate Cafe, Harrods is a chocoholics dream come true. Is there anything better than an all chocolate cafe? Godiva celebrates 90 years of success, mastering fine chocolate. The new commemorative pastry, the “1926” is the epitome of Godiva. It is as much a feast for the eyes as it is on the palate. An indulgent, floral, fragrant rose and raspberry dessert. A glistening dome topped elegantly with raspberry, and chocolate. The light rose-petal parfait and raspberry confit are delicately layered over moist raspberry financier cake and a crunchy feuilletine. The raspberry sauce seeps through the layers of this divine dessert. Available only for limited time in Godiva Chocolate Cafés in London, Istanbul, Shanghai, Beijing, Dubai and Abu Dhabi it’s obviously one not to be missed. Unsurprisingly, Godiva’s anniversary is marked by a limited edition box of chocolates.

With the finest chocolates selected from each decade, the whole box is rather fabulous. The newest edition for 2016 […]

Al Mahara, The Burj Al Arab, Dubai

Al Mahara, The Burj Al Arab, Dubai

Food & Drink Honeymoons

The Burj Al Arab is a landmark in Dubai. As the only seven star hotel in the world, it is pretty spectacular standing proud on it’s very own man made island in Jumeirah Beach. If you were anywhere else, one might say all that glitters is not gold, but at The Burj Al Arab it is 22k gold. The dancing fountains, the giant fish tanks and gold gilded pillars are really to be marvelled over. Arrive by helicopter on the heli pad, and have a butler to serve, your every whim. The fine dining restaurant, Al Mahara is really something special. It’s just as over the top and indulgent as one might expect, with shark filled aquariums, and apple juice sprinkled with 24k gold flakes. It’s a slightly surreal experience as you almost lose all concept of reality and discover what luxury really means. It’s truly mesmerising. A dining experience really like no other, that has to be experience to be believed. It’s the restaurant you would pick to impress, for a memorable proposal, an anniversary or iconic birthday. The aquarium in the centre of the restaurant means wherever you sit you will enjoy a perfect view. The tables are well spaced […]
