#CoventGardenHotel #Chinatown

Tonight could not get any better @Covent Garden Hotel

Having a great time with Thor and Shyam who walked all the way to my place for 20 minutes, to take me for drinks and show around @Chinatown

Feeling thankful and glad to have made good mates during such a short stay in this engagement.

We already know where we are going next time – a famous dumpling place in Chinatown.

The story of Thor is no less than a movie script involving a 14 year Vietnamese migrant kid washing ashore and making his way to the riches through a lifetime of hard work. His talks are full of experiences felt through the decades of change that Sydney has gone through.

Imagine running into someone discriminatory tonight and Thor showing him the mirror, and then the door.

Ozzies are tough and so is Thor! Respect.🥂🍸

#FortuneVillageChineseRestaurant

Enjoying delicious lunch @Fortune Village Chinese Restaurant

We both felt happy about our decision to check out this restaurant – a fine dining experience, yum food, cordial service and awesome ambiance. In words of Stephen, this is the finest Chinese restaurant he has been to in Sydney and enjoyed a relaxed meal experience after a long time.

We had pleasure of opening fortune cookies together for first time.

People may not always believe what you say, but they will believe what you do.

I was glad to have found this restaurant on CBD map for Stephen’s delight and our farewell meal in Sydney!🍽️🍲🥘🍛☕🍚

#Martha’sHealthyEatery #PeaceHarmony

Enjoying lunch this afternoon @Martha’s Healthy Eatery

Happy to be back with Stephen after a short gap and couldn’t feel any better on this beautiful day.

The original plan was to try @Peace Harmony but that place turned out to be too busy to step into and find a seat.

The food here can be hit or miss but the smoothies are awesome. Worth visiting.🌯🥗🍹🥑

#TaranakiStreetWharf

These beautiful words engraved @Taranaki Street Wharf

The beautiful writing and the amazing view behind makes your visit worthwhile, every time.🎑

It’s true you can’t live here by chance,
you have to do and be, not simply watch
or even describe. This is the city of action,
the world headquarters of the verb

– From ‘The Active Voice’ in Scenes from a Small City, Daphne Brasell Associates Press, 1994

#GingerChai #Halva

Having a great time sipping ginger chai with friends and tasting scrumptious hot dessert, a halva made from healthy ingredients including almonds – not less than a blessing in a cold night like this.

Discussing some interesting subjects including some uniquely amazing things about our country, New Zealand.

What a great way to end a beautiful day!

This has to be among the best evenings we both have spent together in Wellington. ☕

#Bikaner

Awesome dining @Bikaner

Having a great time meeting with each other and enjoying the dinner at one of the best Indian restaurants Wellington has to offer.

It is always a wonderful feeling to visit this restaurant and the variety of vegetarian food is astonishing.🍽️🥗🥘🍛

#PappaRich

Enjoying delicious lunch at one of our favourites in Auckland @PappaRich Auckland CBD

Catching up for lunch with Stephen’s family after what looks like long gap and having a great time, reviving old times over well established lunch etiquette 😊🥗🍛🍲🍚🍨

This restaurant is in our common fav list and there couldn’t better place to welcome their return from hols. Working out the deets and schedule for our shift of ‘work & fun’ from Wellington to Sydney!🏢🛫🌏🍽️

#MaiThai

The very first lunch at Auckland CBD in this month @Mai Thai

Had anyone told a year ago that we will be enjoying lunch at one of my favourite restaurants in Auckland, we both may had laughed it off. And here we are, meeting in Auckland on such a beautiful day. 🥘🍲🍚🍛

It is moments like this one which confirm that the life is moving in the right direction.
