This has got to be one of the most eyebrow-raising products at Food Hotel Asia 2012 - mozzarella, not from Italy, but Indonesia! The most curious question is - how good is it? Well, pretty darn impressive, actually. It's got a pleasant bite, with a smooth and mild taste. An Italian passerby who tasted it insisted it must be from Italy, and was incredulous that it was from …

There's nothing like a spa treatment to complete a staycation. The Grand Park City Hall has Spa Park Asia right on its premises. Some of you may remember St Gregory Spa that used to be here. The management changed but many of the staff are still here. I got to try their signature award-winning treatment - a two-hour long therapeutic experience comprising Asian massage … 
What's a holiday without pigging out a little? At our staycation at Grand Park City Hall, we got to try the buffet dinner at Indulge at Park on the ground floor. Here's my cold platter. … 
Wow, we had a blast this morning! Look at this stunning pirate ship water playground! Water slides, water guns, water spouts, water fountains, tipping cones of water, and a giant bucket that unleashes upon all! The Port of Lost Wonder launched today at Palawan Beach, Sentosa Island. It's the first kids club by the beach. The pirate ship is super fun. I think we spent nearly … 
Grand Park City Hall is like an oasis in the middle of the city. I have always liked this spot where it's so quiet and green, a mere few minutes walk away from Raffles City. My family recently had the chance to experience a weekend stay here, courtesy of the hotel (and they've offered a special promotion just for Camemberu readers - see end of post later). Jolie jumping … 
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's sinking. This epic tragedy has been shrouded in mystery. We know an iceberg did it, but not how this legendary and supposedly unsinkable vessel broke apart so quickly and plunged to its icy grave on April 15, 1912. The sinking took less than three hours and around 1,500 lives. The History channel joined top underwater …

I am always on the lookout for nice, relaxing places for brunch (or tea, or dinner, or supper...oh, food should always be eaten in a relaxing environment, don't you agree?). So we came to …

Hi folks! I am in Taiwan! We've just spent four days in the central county of Nantou at the invitation of Sunnyhills (yes, they of the pineapple cakes fame). Nantou is where it all began. Sunnyhills also produces oolong tea which you can taste at the shop along with their complimentary pineapple cake. We have been exploring tea plantations and the process of making oolong …
