continued from Paris London Oxford with less than RM5000 Note the price Boulangeries & pâtisseries in Paris have prices that differ from one another, by rather big difference. We had pastries at Guerin, a 2003 award winning boulangerie and it’s 30% pricier than another bakery down the street. A macaron at Laduree will cost around […]
I first mentioned my plan to go to Paris and UK with a budget of RM5,000 per person to friends in 2009. They were very concerned and thought I might be a little over my head in this. I decided to take this as a challenge and determined to make my Paris UK trip come […]
When ZL inform me that there’s a world class Gold Mine roast duck in London, I was skeptical.

Upstairs!” Widely known as the famous Chinese restaurant that serves cheap authentic Hong Kong style food in Chinatown, they’re also famous for its staffs’ arrogance and attitudes. You’re most likely to be greeted with […]
I opened my eyes, it’s 4 am. I wondered why would I be awake at this time, not that I had nightmares or I haven’t got a good sleep. Oh yeah, I was in London. By Malaysia time, it should be 10 am already and I was hungry. I finished up tomato and herbs macaroni […]
A trip to UK trip won’t be complete without 2 food – an English Full Breakfast and a Fish & Chips. Hence, our first mission in London was to seek out Portland Cafe, highly recommended by webbies for our breakfast. Just a few strolls away from the famous Oxford Street, it’s a good place to […]
