Bangkok is by-far one our favorite cities in the world. When we get bitten by the travel-bug, my (Chrina) instinctive response is to say, “let’s go to Bangkok!” With the perfect combination of food, shopping and massages, what’s not to love? Here are are a few of our favorite spots in the bright and bustling city…

Pain, Beauty and Love on Father’s Day
So it’s Father’s Day. I’ve always liked the idea of Father’s Day. An entire day dedicated to fathers, no matter what their shortcomings, mistakes, triumphs and achievements may be, we honor them. And I don’t know anything about your experience with your father, but whether you want to or not, you will think of him today….
Stopover in Sydney
Oh what a wonderful whirlwind our trip to Sydney was. Jon and I had never been to Australia and had finally found the perfect excuse to go! Our dear friends were pastoring a church in Brisbane and had invited us to come stay with them for a few days. Of course we booked a flight…
10 Hours in Amsterdam
While planning our honeymoon to Paris, we found out that Amsterdam was only a few hours away by train. We knew for sure that it would be worth the journey , even if just for a few hours. So, my gracious parents booked us train tickets to see Holland for the day… 10 hours to be exact….
Honeymoon in Paris
We were so blessed to be able to spend our honeymoon in Paris. Needless to say, we absolutely LOVED it. Some may think that celebrating your honeymoon in Paris is “cliche” or that the city is overrated, but we couldn’t disagree more. I (Chrina) have been there a couple of times before, but seeing everything again, with Jon by my side, was truly memorable. For our first travel adventure as husband and wife, this trip to the City of Love was just perfect!
PS Cafe (Palais)
PS Cafe is one of the few restaurants that consistently lives up to the hype. In fact, I have yet to come across a customer with a bad experience. We had a wonderful experience at the outlet at Dempsey which had a garden-dining feel and therefore we decided to see how the branch at Palais…
Violet Oon’s Kitchen

A welcoming ambiance, great service, and familiar food – you can’t not enjoy it! Familiar – The menu was a nice combination of local favorites and asian-inspired western dishes….
Au Petit Salut
AU PETIT SALUT is deemed as one of the most authentic French restaurants in Singapore. On Jonathan’s 25th birthday, we decided that it was the perfect occasion to indulge. The restaurant is tucked in the woods of Dempsey Hill, which makes it a bit hard to get to, but this also part of its appeal….
Paradiso
Among the many restaurants that line Sentosa Cove, is a bustling Cuban-Spanish restaurant. We would recommend Paradiso as a good dining option for those looking for a more affordable meal in this “posh” area. The menu offers something for everyone. There is wide array of Cuban tapas & paellas and also a variety of familiar…
GRUB
GRUB is a newly launched casual dining restaurant located at the heart of Bishan Park 1. Amidst the lush greenery sits the modern yet homey Grub, which prides itself in their use of carefully selected ingredients and dishes that “they would serve their own family.” DESCRIBED IN ONE WORD Homey – The inside of the…
