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 […]

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 […]

Winter Wonderland, London

Winter Wonderland, London

Celebrations Events

London is annually enchanted by the Christmas spirit, that the much anticipated Winter Wonderland, brings to Hyde Park. This year the Christmas market boasts over 200 Bavarian style chalets, offering festive food, clothing, jewellery, decorations and much, much more. Walking around, treat yourself to delicious churros, roasted chestnuts and mulled wine, as the perfect excuse to keep warm. The sizzling spicy German sausages, hot off the BBQ are not to be missed. Grab some popcorn, candy floss and some smooth hot chocolate for Zippo’s Christmas Circus in the Mega Dome. There’s jaw dropping magic and amazing stunts aplenty. With colourful clowns and jugglers, it’s an action packed forty five minute that’s surprisingly comical. The Sooty Christmas Show is a delightfully nostalgic puppet show, that sees the little ones laughing on the edge of their seats. “Izzy Wizzy Lets get busy,” as Sooty, Sweep and Soo have a mischievous morning. The Magical Ice Kingdom, frosty walk-through attraction, houses a vast array of ice sculptures in a huge world of ice. The polar sculptures are intricately carved and enormous and so impressive. Be sure to remember your scarves and gloves as it does get rather chilly in there. The rides at Winter Wonderland, will literally […]

The Trendy New Hai Cenato

The Trendy New Hai Cenato

Celebrations Food & Drink

Victoria has seen a fair few new restaurants pop up in Nova complex recently. Hai Cenato is just one of Jason Atherton’s trendy New York style eateries that is definitely worth a look in. There’s a real buzz at lunch time, at the newest Italian in town, where they are serving up pizza from golden wood fired ovens. The décor is rather modern, with caricatures of famous chefs plastered all over the walls. The sea salt and rosemary focaccia served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar was fragrant, and ever so light and airy. Despite the temptation to try all the unusual pizza toppings, and grilled sharing platters there’s something alluring about a margarita pizza. The wood fired sour dough pizza topped with San Marzano tomato, buffalo mozzarella and basil is just perfect. So if you’re not in the mood for pizza, the confit lamb neck, aubergine, spiced with Ras El Hanout and yoghurt and mint is a good option. It’s more like a gourmet deconstructed kebab than pizza but still rather delicious. There was definitely some food envy, as the table beside us dug in to the Black treacle cured pork knuckle, San Marzano tomato & white bean ribollita. It smelled and looked amazing and we […]

A Retreat at the New Hilltop Reserves at the Isle of Eriska

Celebrations Honeymoons Weddings

As you arrive over the clickety clackety bridge, to the impressive private island of Isle of Eriska, nothing can prepare you for what awaits. Passing through woodlands, the “Relais Chateux” property of Eriska, is a charming building set amongst 300 acres. It’s located close to a private air field if you’re lucky enough to own a private jet. For most its a picturesque three hour scenic drive through Loch Lomond from Edinburgh. Eriska boasts a Michelin-starred restaurant, a nine-hole golf course, the Stables Spa, a casual Deck Restaurant and even a private beach as well lots of lovely nature trails. The Isle of Eriska is truly magnificent. The main house is welcoming and homely, with a quintessentially British charm, and roaring fires, even in the midst of the unpredictable Scottish Summer. In contrast, the new Hilltops are really modern, beautifully appointed and immaculate. It’s a nice feeling being the first to stay in the Hilltop Reserves. They have a Scandinavian hygee feel to them. They are furnished luxuriously, with everything being quite sleek, stylish and rather plush. The lodges have been designed with attention to detail. The kitchen is well stocked with Joseph and Joseph accessories and there’s even some fresh milk waiting in the fridge. It’s […]

Kawaii Monster Cafe, Harajuku

20 November 2015

Kawaii Monster Cafe, Harajuku

Food & Drink

Harajuku’s Kawaii Monster Cafe is a unique concept and all the rave, as a hotspot in Tokyo. Walk along a monster’s tongue into a multicoloured room with a huge spinning merry go round, cake. Surrounded by four funky themed zones to choose to sit in. It has a slightly crazy meets Willy Wonka hallucinatory style, with oversized magical mushrooms bursting with colour, giant lips, and hanging baby’s bottles. It’s a bit surreal, with Kawaii Monster girls strolling around the restaurant. The menu is interesting, full of unimaginable colourful spaghetti and ice creams and cakes exploding with colour. The experimental cocktails are delightful, served with test tubes to add layers of colours to your drink. Presented with multicoloured chopsticks to take away made a nice memento. The Monster Cafe is quirky, colourfully crazy, and definitely worth a visit.
