Suddenly released from a two-month long period of involuntary puritanical living (and about a stone lighter), it seemed only right to celebrate my new found lifestyle freedom with a bit of a splurge. My friend C.L. kindly stepped up to......
I really like restaurants where the chef leaves the kitchen to chat to the diners. I don't want his or her life history but a short chat about the food is a simple touch which makes the whole dining experience......
I really wanted to like SoHo 8. For starters, it's really convenient for my flat and it's always useful to have a couple of reliable old favourites close to home. Also, I really like Yorkshire Pudding, it's sister restaurant. It......
Just when I think I'm starting to get there, another area of Hong Kong I've never heard of pops out of the woodwork - and, rather embarrassingly, I'm not talking about random bits of the New Territories which it's kind......
Taking that good Yorkshire expression - "where there's muck there's brass" - to whole new levels, the Modern Toilet restaurant in Causeway Bay is, well, an interesting experience. Every single aspect of the restaurant has been themed from the decor......
There is absolutely nothing I hate more than a dull dining experience. It always leaves me in a shocking mood that no amount of post dinner revelry can reverse. Unfortunately for me (and my dining companions) I had such an......

Trains, Communists and Hong Kong Democracy

A Michelin Star Shines in Mongkok

I don’t really like writing about food. I struggle to find more than one way of saying, ‘It’s delicious!’, and I prefer to enjoy my meals without having to dissect them. But when Asia Sentinel asked for a piece, I couldn’t resist writing about the excellent Tim Ho Wan, the world’s...
Avatar ain’t as amazing as you say it is
I’ve been arguing with anyone who comes close to me that Avatar is not a five-star movie, or even a four-star movie. It is, as Time Out New York (but not the rest of the critical world, apparently) asserts, a three-star movie. For sure, the visuals are fantastic. Cameron has re-invented...

Is it not Life, is it not the Thing?
Reading Leslie Marchand's biography of Byron, I marvel in turn at the sexual antics of the latter and the prudishness of the former, his devoted, if at times rather naughty, American biographer; naughty, that is, in terms of using innuendo to suggest certain, typically unseemly, things took place in the...
Zhao Lianhai, a father of two who used to work for the optimistically named Food Quality and Safety Authority in China and who set up a website to help fellow victims of the melamine-laced powdered milk debacle, which poisoned 300,000 children, killing six, has been charged with disturbing social order...
