Revolver Espresso is one of the coolest coffee joints in Seminyak, Bali. If you love coffee, and enjoy cafe-hopping, you have to drop by Revolver for a cuppa when you are exploring Jalan Laksmana.

Editor’s Note July 2013
I am currently in Bali for two weeks, exploring great restaurants, staying at well-designed hotels and having the time of my life. There are so many fantastic restaurants in Bali which not only serve very good food, but also provide the complete dining experiences. Needless to say, I am eating very well here.
For July, we will be doing a special Bali feature where we bring to you comprehensive guides on the best restaurants to dine at, cafes to chill out at, spas for a relaxing break, and hotels for a much needed hideout.
Bali is only slightly less than 3 hours away from Singapore, and with cheap flights from airlines such as KLM and Qatar, there is really no reason to not come here for a getaway. I hope that with this feature, you will understand Bali on a whole new level and spark the travel desire in you.
We could always use an ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ holiday. Join us on our journey – on instagram, twitter and facebook – as we show you the best of what Bali has to offer.
Hotel Éclat Taipei
Most of the boutique hotels in Taipei are reasonably-priced, and you can easily find a place that is located in a convenient area like Taipei City Hall or Taipei Main Station. There are plenty of budget-friendly options, but if you are willing to pay a little more for accommodation, I would recommend Hotel Éclat in the Da-an district, which to me, is one of the top hotels in Taipei.
Burger & Lobster London
The dining scene in London is very vibrant and there are so many good restaurants that it is almost impossible to keep up, even if you are living in the city. When I was doing my research for eating spots prior to the trip, one of the restaurants that kept popping out was Burger & Lobster – there are so many raved reviews about them online.
Of course, the question is: is the restaurant worth the hype? The answer is a big and undisputed YES. One of the most memorable meals that I had during my trip was at Burger & Lobster.
Things To Do In Macau
Macau, also known as the Monte Carlo of The Orient, is a renown gaming destination in Asia. With its economy based largely on tourism and gaming dollars, Macau is home to more than 30 casinos, and even more integrated resorts (IRs) and hotels – including many big names like Las Vegas Sands, Galaxy, Wynn and Sheraton.
You need not be a Blackjack fan to like the bustling city. Just a tour around the big IRs and there will surely be something to attract you – daily performances, shopping belts, popular restaurants and whatnot.
Maisen Tonkatsu Tokyo
It is no secret that I love tonkatsu. Sushi and sashimi are great, but if I had to choose, I would go for tonkatsu anytime. So when I was in Tokyo last year, I made it my mission to find the best tonkatsu in the city.
There are many famous tonkatsu restaurants in Tokyo, but the place that everyone seems to agree is the best place to head to is Maisen Tonkatsu. They have many outlets in Tokyo, but go to the main shop in Aoyama – just a few blocks behind Omotesando Hills. The restaurant is located in a former World War II public bathhouse, which adds to the whole feel of dining there.
5 Gastronomical Delights of Montreal
Montreal, cultural capital of Canada, and also the undisputed food capital of Canada. Located in the French-speaking province of Québec, Montreal has some of the most exciting gastronomical delights. Its unique food heritage is a blend of local Québécois dishes and food introduced by various immigrant communities. The great part is that the best food in Montreal are very affordable too.
You’d most likely be greeted with a “Bonjour!” before a “Hello” here, but don’t worry, because many Montrealers are bilingual. It’s only a one-hour plane ride from New York City and Toronto, or a five-hour train journey from Toronto. If you happen to already be in North America, make a short trip to Montreal and try these yummy food.
