By The Food Tease on January 16, 2024
“More champagne, Miss Hasbron?” Now that was music to my ears! As I cruised the sky on the way to my East Asia adventure aboard Hong Kong Airlines, I couldn’t help but think how lucky I was. From the 180° flatbed seat and stocked amenities kit to the à la carte dining options and ‘SkyBar’ area where one can indulge even more, travellers afforded Business Class services are simply spoiled. Endless bubbles and local Asian delicacies helped set that authentic vibe before commencing my travels to Hong Kong and Taiwan.
As I entered the city, I was awestruck by the sheer magnitude and astronomical height of Hong Kong’s skyscrapers. It was as though the buildings touched the clouds! Settling in at the Hyatt Centric Victoria Harbour Hong Kong (formerly Hotel VIC), a new luxury lifestyle hotel situated on the harbourfront in Hong Kong’s North Point district, I had the most stunning views of the harbour and Hong Kong’s modern, yet historical city.
I was ready to jump right into exploration mode. A tour of two of Hong Kong’s oldest districts, Sham Shui Po & Shek Kip Mei, was the perfect way to begin. Luckily, I was not alone, as the number of people shopping and walking in this area was mind-blowing. This area is a plethora of everything you can imagine — electronics stores, vendors selling art (this is a well-known area for artists and designers), and my favourite, traditional Hong Kong cuisine.
My taste buds were given the royal treatment as I tried several eateries recommended by the Michelin Guide, including indulging at Hong Kong’s world’s famous Dim Sum restaurant, Tim Ho Wan. What makes this restaurant different is the fact that even with its 5-star culinary offerings it is the least expensive Michelin-star eatery in the world. Their price point is geared towards the everyday patron. Believe me when I say, you will not be disappointed. I couldn’t stop eating! If you are planning on going, I would recommend that you go early as the queue when we went was around the block. That says it all right there!
Speaking of culinary delights, dinner at Fu Rong at the Ocean Terminal Deck is by far one of the most sensory-overloaded dining experiences I have had to date. As if it wasn’t enough to enjoy Fu Rong’s contemporary Sichuan dishes, the location is also a feast for the eyes by allowing you to witness the sensational multimedia extravaganza that occurs every evening. Recognized as one of the world’s most spectacular light shows, the Symphony of Lights hypnotizes you with its mesmerizing lasers and LED screens that light up the breathtaking views of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.
Onward and upward to what seemed like I was reaching for the sky, I headed to another attraction that showcases Hong Kong’s beauty — Ngong Ping Village on Lantau Island. Luckily, I don’t have a fear of heights. The Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car is equipped with a glass bottom to add to the sensory effect. Climbing further and further into the lush mountains, I could see in the distance one of the reasons why I took this cable car — the Big Buddha. Seeing the sun hit the bronze statue, contrasted with the spectacular scenic mountains, was a photo-worthy experience!
Throughout my visit to the Ngong Ping Village, I couldn’t help but be drawn to the traditional Chinese architecture, including the details of the buildings. In the village, tourists can shop and also take in some entertainment. However, my goal was to climb those 268 stairs for the full experience of seeing the Tian Tan Buddha up close. The beauty of seeing the Buddha sitting on a lotus throne overlooking Ngong Ping Village and the Ngong Ping Plateau was well worth it!
Making my way back to the cable car, I took the time to visit the Po Lin Monastery, one of Hong Kong’s most important Buddhist sanctums. It has been dubbed the “Buddhist World in the South.” The colourful manifestations of Buddhist iconography and life-size incense sticks that filled the air were impressive. To get into the spirit of things, I tried an authentic vegetarian meal typically eaten by Buddhist Monks. It was all rather enlightening regardless of the faith you practice!
Hong Kong during the day is wonderful; however, after nightfall, it’s another phenomenon altogether. That is when the largest and liveliest night market in Hong Kong, the Temple Street Night Market, comes to life. Like many tourists, I was captivated by the plethora of vendors and the buzz of the city’s signature neon signs. I’ll not soon forget the aromas from the sundry food stalls, the endless fortune tellers wanting to read my palms or face, and the lively karaoke street performers. It is this energetic vibe that has made the Temple Street Night Market one of the most popular in Hong Kong.
After a short flight, I found myself exploring Taiwan, a little island east of mainland China that once belonged to Japan. In contrast to the hustle and bustle vibe of Hong Kong, Taiwan’s ambiance is more laid back. Even so, it offers travellers enamoured with Asian culture numerous historical and cultural attractions.
Both cyclists and hikers alike will enjoy this island with its bike-friendly culture and 268 mountains. It is a hotspot for active trekkers, specifically the Taroko Gorge. Known as the Taiwanese Grand Canyon, it is the country’s premier scenic attraction. I had the pleasure of hiking and witnessing the massive marble cliffs, the Eternal Shrine, and Taroko’s various scenic beauties like its waterfalls and caves.
I couldn’t go to Taiwan without experiencing the skyscraper that dwarfs all others, Tapiei 101. Resembling a gigantic bamboo stalk, the building was officially classified as the world’s tallest, until Dubai introduced us to the famed Burj Khalifa. Tapei 101 stands out quite literally since, unlike Hong Kong’s landscape, there are few tall buildings.
My adventures in Taiwan were unique in that they were completely interactive. Case in point, my trek into the Hualien Mountains to the Cidal Hunter School with the indigenous tribe, Amis. The Amis tribe makes up 2.4% (or approximately 200,000 people) of the Taiwanese population. Here I learned some of their basic survival skills and discovered an appreciation for their culture. It was fascinating to learn from the tribespersons, everything from cleaning your hands with berries to making a fire in less than a minute. (Full disclosure: my group wasn’t successful, but we had lots of laughs in the process).
Trekking even further in the jungle, I also learned how to make a water container from elephant leaves and sweets from sticky rice. An open fire was used to prepare wild boar and other delicacies. Each dish was visually pleasing and tastefully satisfying. The respect that the Amis tribe has for Mother Nature is unlike anything I have seen. Their mantra is: “The mountain is the market and the ocean is the refrigerator.” They take only what they need and always give back. What an incredible experience!
Not one to shy away from most things, I took part in a local bathhouse in a well-known hot-spring area of Taiwan, Beitou. A vital part of Taiwanese culture has long been a rejuvenating soak. After visiting Thermal Valley, one of Beitou’s hot-spring water sources that produces the special green-sulfur mineral water that visitors desire the most, I wanted to know more. Indeed, Beitou has three different types of hot spring water, green, red, and white, all with their distinct health benefits. The green sulfur hot spring is strongly sulfurous but I’m glad to report there is no rotten egg smell here. The jade-coloured water is also the hottest (average temperature is 50-75 degrees Celsius). This type of hot spring is highly prized. It’s only found in two places in the world: Beitou, Taiwan, and Akita, Japan!
Staying at the Sheraton Grand Taipei Hotel made getting around easy. It is centrally located to many attractions, including the shopping and entertainment districts. History aficionados will want to explore the National Palace Museum. It is home to one of the largest collections of Chinese artifacts and artworks in the world. The hotel’s eight stylish restaurants, including a 2 Michelin star, will please avid food lovers like myself.
Speaking of deliciousness, if you are serious about food, a trip to the largest and most famous night market in Taiwan, Shilin Night Market, is a must! Seeing vendors cook in front of you and smelling the herbs and spices as they plate your meal in record time is just mind-blowing! Exploring the market is the best way, in my opinion, to discover and savour traditional dishes by way of Taiwanese Street food.
My East Asia adventure provided me with many memorable experiences that will last me a lifetime! Both Hong Kong and Taiwan are evolving with the times. They’re offering more and more to tourists, all the while being mindful of their cultural heritage. This is fitting considering the desires of today’s travelers. They seem to want to experience two realms of the places they visit. One is where they are going, the next is how they came to be.

Looking forward to discovering new regions! 😊

A recipe for tasty success - this is what A Taste for Life Ottawa is all about.
Last evening, generous restaurants like @faunaottawa opened their doors to patrons who dined and donated to support people living with HIV in our communities.
What more could you ask for?! Stellar dishes while supporting a great cause!!☺️
Fresh meaty Malpeque oysters 🦪🦪 and tasty tempura mushrooms 🍄 as appetizers to a mouth-watering meat fest. Say hello to a 80 day dry aged ribeye for 2 and the tastiest duck breast I`ve ever had!!😲😋😋😍
Because those dishes weren`t indulgent enough, a basque style cheesecake had to be tasted!!😂😋
A great cause and annual tradition that I`m proud to support and be a part of! ❤️

Learning about new destinations and different cultures is always a blast! 😃
Several evenings ago, I had the pleasure of being invited to the Embassy of the Czech Republic😍
Learning about their culture, their unique travel experiences, and surprisingly, how inexpensive this country is, when compared to other European destinations, is always good💰💰
To start the Czech Tourism event, guests had the pleasure to hear from Czech Republic Ambassador of Canada, Martin Tlapa.
Tasty libations and Czech dishes were enjoyed by the guests. Even though I enjoy my 🍾 bubbles, I enjoyed tasting Czech`s prized beer 😉🍻
On the bucket list to discover✈️✈️

I had the pleasure of experiencing @kathaottawa with their exclusive 8 course tasting menu of progressive Indian cuisine. What a treat!😍😋
.
Kathā means story in Sanskrit, and with each course, a story about the dish was shared with the guests. This interactive approach provided a cultural and personal background for each dish.

Everything from the scallop ceviche, the cod with chili and coriander oil to the delicious lamb chop and duck - all made for a unique cultural dining experience. 😋😋

Props to Chef/Owner Sarath Teegavarapu and his talented brigade on this creative endeavor!!

Friday night, I had the privilege of attending the 2024 Canadian Culinary Championships - Mystery Wine Challenge - People`s Choice Award🥇🥇@greatkitchenparty
.
Congratulations to all the chefs involved in this intense competition. The chefs needed to create a dish to pair with the mystery wine. Each chef was given a tricky budget of $550 for the 250 guests. I was witnessing creativity at its best!!😋
.
The winning dish🥇 (centered in the middle of the photo) was created by JP Dublado: Red Deer Resort and Casino, Red Deer AB
Dish: beet & soy cured albacore tuna - ponzu gel - tomato water - puffed wild rice - beet green oil
.
Amazing talent from all the chefs as they paired with the mystery wine (a 2021 Lailey Vineyard Zweigelt)🍷🍷

A classic is always a classic!🤩
.
@alssteakhouse has been serving food lovers steak, seafood, and tantalizing martinis since 1967!!! Just incredible! 🥩🍤🍸
.
As an appetizer, I must say their calamari was outstanding, and believe it or not, their portion was unlike any other eatery - there was so much!! 😮
.
And now, for the main attraction - their 14oz Rib-eye steak. The flavour of this steak was a melt-in-your-mouth gift! I couldn`t stop eating it. I forgot how delicious their steaks are. With their sides and salad with their signature garlic dressing, it was a real feast, to say the least.😋
.
I`m already looking forward to my next visit...like I said, when a classic is this tasty, any excuse to visit is a good one‼️

Exploring different regions of the beautiful island of Antigua🏝🏝🐚🐚
Breathtaking panoramic views from Shirley Heights, a restored military lookout, and gun battery was such a visual treat!😍

Afterward, a tasty seafood lunch at the Mainbrace restaurant, located at the @copperandlumberstorehotelanu was needed. We are talking about delicious conch fritters, spicy shrimp and avocado sushi stack, and Mahi Mahi trio seafood salad - YUMMY!! 😋😋

And if that wasn`t enough, the view of the mind-blowing luxury yachts in front of us as we dined was simply perfect!🛳🛥🤩

The Devil made me do it! 👹😉
.
Antigua’s rich history and spectacular topography provide a variety of popular sightseeing opportunities.
.
One of those stunning sightseeing opportunities is the Devil`s Bridge. The sight and sounds of this natural wonder are something else. 👹🌊
.
Natural blowholes around the arch shoot up water and spray, caused by the Atlantic Ocean waves. Simply beautiful and capitavating and yet dangerous if too close to the blowholes.😲😍

To discover any new destination, I need to explore and experience their local dishes and eateries. 😋😋
.
Big thanks to @eat_n_lime_food_tours and to the @antiguaandbarbuda tourism board for providing me such a tasty treat!!🤗
.
Eat N Lime`s motto resonates with me so much...`We are hanging out and chilling, enjoying eachothers company with good food` - This is my happy place!😍😋
.
The delicious food tour started in Saint John, the capital of Antigua and Barbuda, at the Heritage Quay Complex, where one can easily see all the cruise ships coming in and offloading their passengers.
.
I had the pleasure of tasting these local treats during the food tour:
1) Island Bhive: shrimp fritters with garlic sauce - so delicious 😋 🦐
2) Quin Farara Liquor Store: Rum tasting and learning how to make an Antiguan Old Fashioned cocktail with their 5-year-old English Harbour Rum.🍹
3) Roti King: a very generous roti that was packed with flavour: chickpea bread, potatoes, chicken, Indian curry, turmeric, and ginger.
4) Brownies Bakery: well-known for its unique bread offerings. Fun fact: it`s also a well-known hangover dish.🍞😉Tracey Ann, our informative and engaging Eat n Lime Food Tours guide, showed us Brownies Bakery`s famous bread - cinnamon butter and cheese.
5) Patti Delight: Jamaican patties with a twist. Jamaican beef patty with bacon, cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce. More please!!😋😋
6) To wash down all this delicious food, we stopped at One Stone Ital Shack - a Jamaican rasta shop known for their fresh fruit juices. Passion fruit for the win!! Tasted amazing and truth be told, I mixed my leftover juice with some local Rum as my afternoon cocktail.🍹😉
.
I highly recommend taking part in food tours when discovering new destinations as you not only learn about the culture but also learn how food plays an integral role in the history of the specific region. Eat N Lime`s food tour was exceptional - great memories from this excursion. 😍🤗

Home cooking calls for a smoked salmon Dutch baby!!😋💕
.
This uber light yet rich at the same time meal is nothing but DELICIOUS!

This savoury Dutch baby with garlic butter, parmesan, and plenty of herbs can be a versatile vessel for other proteins or on its own. However, the smoked salmon and sour cream spread takes it to another level.

A year ago this week, I was enjoying some bath time while in @discoverdominica 🏖🏝😍
.
Dominica`s lush scenery is extraordinary, and I`m grateful to have been invited to visit their beautiful island😊😊

Visiting Wotten Waven Sulphur Springs was perfect to relax and rid of some unwanted stress. And the outdoor bath surrounded by all that green landscape was simply the BEST! An unforgettable experience! 🤩
.
Dominica`s adventure activities - diving, snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, swimming - are just some of the many ways to enjoy this tropical island.🤿🙂

Put Dominica on your travel list. You`ll love it!!❤️❤️
