15 17 EDITOR’S LETTER

Are you surrounded by fabulous smelling, and delicious looking, street food everyday of the week? Of course you are – you’re lucky enough to live in China. The problem is, with an abundance of vendors on every street corner and concerns over hygiene standards, it can be hard to find your go-to xiaolongbao joint. Enter Glutton Guides, the brand new e-guidebook written by the local culinary experts behind UnTour Shanghai. We caught up with Jamie Barys, one half of the UnTour team, to talk about her new project and street food safety (page 6 and page 7). Summer is well and truly here, and although this might be good news when street food hopping with a Glutton Guide, it can play havoc with your beauty regime. We have our top tips and beauty secrets to get you through these trying, and ever so muggy, times (page 10). We recently took a city break in Toyko. The world-class city offers an intoxicating mix of modern and traditional temperaments, with crazy evenings kambai-ing with the locals, and peaceful strolls through the Imperial Palace Gardens. Swap one humid Asian metropolis for another,

(page 12 to page 14). Looking for an escape from the haze in the Middle Kingdom this summer? South East Asia is conveniently close, relatively cheap and very well connected to major Chinese cities, so there is no excuse not to grab a breather on a pristine beach, in a tropical rainforest or up an almost uninhabited mountain. We have picked our favourite South East Asian destinations as inspiration for your summer holiday (page 17 to page 22). As usual, we have the latest hotel news, food and drink deals, as well as our essential listings at the back (pages 28 onwards). Now, let’s Talk.

AROUNDTOWN Your news round-up for the month of July Disney Stamps

Anticipating the opening of Shanghai Disneyland, and following the opening of the new Disney Store in Pudong, last month China released its first Disney Stamp! The new stamp features a Mickey Mouse made with three traditional Chinese cloud circles. Each stamp is worth RMB 1.2. A ceremony to mark the release of the stamp was held at Jing’an Park. Shanghai Post and the Walt Disney Company will be developing more Disney related stamps. A-hyuck. We can't wait!

Airport App

The Shanghai Airport Authority and Alibaba are developing a mobile phone application and website to track flight details for both Honqiao and Pudong airports specifically. The app will feature a service to let passengers know about flight delays. According to airport authority president, Jing Yiming, the goal is to keep passengers informed if they will be stuck at the airport for a long period of time – which as we all know seems to happen more often than not. The airport authority, with Alibaba, will also develop another application for future visitors of the Shanghai Disney Resort. Flights to Shanghai and Disney tickets will be sold through the app. Just another preparation for the coming Disneylanders!

Shanghai Is China’s Most Expensive City For Foreigners

Mercer's 21st annual Cost of Living Survey shows that Shanghai is Mainland China's most expensive city for expatriates to live in. Last year, Shanghai was at number ten in the world. This year, our beloved city is the world's sixth most expensive city. According to Mercer principal, Nathalie Constantin-Metral, Chinese cities as a whole, jumped up in the rankings due to the strengthening of the Chinese Yuan and the high costs of expatriate consumer goods. Foreign investment and foreign talent are also contributing to the high cost of living. We can officially say we’ve raised the bar!

Change In Entry Requirements For Taiwanese Mainland China will be changing its entry permit requirements for Taiwanese residents starting 1 July. Taiwan residents will now need a travel pass, but will not need to apply for a visa-like entry permit. This new type of travel pass will last for three months. Also, the terms of validity for a Mainlander's travel pass to Taiwan was extended from five years to ten, whilst that figure remains at five years for Taiwanese residents. Great news for Taiwanese expats!

Art News I Am Your Labyrinth @ 1933 Contemporary

T

his inclusive exhibition brings together a range of Chinese artists in a creative expression of identity. The idea behind “I Am Your Labyrinth” is the Greek mythological story of Ariadne, Theseus and the thread through the labyrinth. In the story's interpretation, the labyrinth becomes a metaphor for the being and becoming whilst finding one's self. For this exhibit, the idea extends to the artists' creative process of construction and deconstruction, and how guests can see a new reflection of themselves through these pieces. Artists include Ren Jie, Cai Zebin, Zheng Wenxin, Jia Chun, Gongxu, Liu Guoqiang, Miao Jing, Liu Chang and many others. Displayed in a labyrinth-style maze, guests walk from a typical gallery to a room containing interactive displays before ending at a reading room. The reading room is part of 1933's Read/View project. This project aims to establish a reading room with curated books on contemporary art practice and thinking. More artistic events and a special series of exhibitions are being planned within the reading room. I Am Your Labyrinth runs until 29 June @ 1933 Contemporary. 611 Liyang Lu, near Haining Lu. Tel: 3258 2558.

JonOne – Solo Show @ Magda Danysz Gallery

O

ne of the leading figures of the street-art scene, JonOne began tagging New York subways in 1970. Gradually, he honed and developed his abstract art to become a key, international street-art figure. His works are shown in the most prestigious museums and collections around the world, including the National Parliament in France - he recently created a huge canvas, “Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité” (freedom, equality and brotherhood), as a tribute to the founders of the French Republic. On this occasion, the artist-in-residence will present a series of drawings and paintings especially designed for this solo show.

Myanmar In Motion @ LWH Gallery

A

nation, once shut off from the world, is slowly opening its doors. Once ruled by a military regime, with no rule of law, minorities were subjugated, the majority was oppressed - all in a constant state of flux, change and unrest. However, golden rays of hope now pierce through the clouds and reflect from the roofs of glittering pagodas. Change is being brought about, led by a noble lady. After decades of isolation, hope is finally in the air. Today, Myanmar’s artists and intellectuals are pushing the boundaries of creative self-expression. Writers are giving readings at literary festivals, musicians are fusing hip hop with traditional music and painters are revealing works that, for decades, could only be shared with trusted friends. “Myanmar In Motion” presents a spectrum of exciting works by both masters and emerging artists.

Together, their works have been shown in major cities such as Boston, Hong Kong, New York, Munich, Singapore and Toronto. Of the works presented, some are openly political whereas others tell the personal stories of the individual. Although Buddhist influences are evident in the majority of the works, you cannot merely define them as simply a Buddhist piece of art – that would belittle the torrent of different forces and movements sweeping across the nation. The artists are currently capturing one of the most significant moments in Myanmar’s modern history. Artists include Wint Tint, Maw Thu Danu, Khin Muang Zaw and Moe Z. Be a witness of a nation in motion. Myanmar In Motion runs from 17 July to 26 August @ LWH Gallery . Room 102, Building 14, G/F, 50 Moganshan Lu, near Xi Suzhou Lu. Tel: 187 0171 7975. Web: www.lwhgallery.com

By playing with bright, energetic colours, JonOne expresses his deepest feelings and creates works full of life, reminiscent of the drippings of Jackson Pollock. Through the power of his physical relation with the canvas, JonOne makes his viewers see and discover experiences in a new way. JonOne considers himself an "abstract expressionist" who must constantly renew hiself. His works are likely to express an agitation and rhythm, which reflect a desire to live and a desire for freedom. JonOne – Solo Show runs until 21 August @ Magda Danysz Gallery. 188 Linqing Lu, near Yangshupu Lu. Tel: 5513 9599. Web: www.magda-gallery.com

MONEY TALK

What FIFA Can Teach Us About Financial Advisors Owen Caterer What is striking about the protests of Sepp Blatter, before his resignation, and the group charged by the FBI, is how passionately they believe they are innocent. If you look into their eyes, you see real shock and anger. Given how guilty they are, how is that even possible? They truly believe what they are doing is OK.

The FIFA scandal has been a huge black eye for the sport and a long time coming, but oddly, it does have important lessons for personal investors. A conflicted environment leads to conflicted behaviour in the FIFA case, and the same is true of financial advisory companies.

one day after months of not recognising my existence. "You've done some good deals in the last month or so. If you just bent your moral ruler a little bit more, you'd be an even more successful adviser’" he said as he bent his imaginary ruler with his hands.

Your Colleagues Shape You Many studies show that behaviour and beliefs are shaped by your peer group and also by your environment. The effects of this are bound to build up over the years. If your financial adviser, awesome honest guy though he is, is paid with commissions and surrounded by commission earning salesmen, then it is certain that his ethics and advice will be gradually transformed with a slow, imperceptible change over time. It might seem a stretch to conflate hidden commissions to corruption, but the slippery slope is real.

The Epiphany That was probably the worst pep talk in the history of the world, since his speech triggered a lightning bolt of adrenaline from a question that hit me. "Was I changing to be more like a handful of colleagues I despised, who sold the highest commission paying product regardless of client needs, and had I already changed without realising?" I knew, at that moment, I needed to find a way to leave the company as soon as possible. Ultimately, that's what led me to co-founding my own firm, with the principle of aligning my interests with my clients via management fees rather than commissions.

Bending The Moral Ruler It reminds me of something that happened to me years ago when I worked for a different employer. I recall the Hong Kong born bigboss of the company suddenly pulling me aside to say, "You are an amazing adviser, so ethical, informed and diligent. You are the guy I'd pick in this whole company to look after my money", he suddenly informed me

I Was Lucky I've seen many other good guys slowly change and become corrupted over the years. Almost every advisor starts in the industry to help people. Very few start in the industry with bad intentions. Still, the drift always happens to those who stay, almost unnoticeably in the beginning, until it ultimately builds into a total change of perspective.

You Have To Sell Yourself Somehow Everyone has pride and self-belief in their work, and this changes over time. At the beginning, everyone starts with, "I believe I have the best solution", which then becomes, "It's the best solution in its class". After a while, this results in "This investment can help protect you against inflation", to the final cop-out excuse when confronted by the stark ugly facts from professionals of, "At least this investment ensures the client puts something away for retirement". That's the final justification veterans use to tell themselves they are doing the right thing. That in effect their clients are too stupid, lazy or indulgent to save anything if they didn't force them, with their aggressive sales tactics, into a restrictive product for a dozen years or more. These were guys who claimed they provide the best solutions available. The Lesson Look for a financial adviser working on a management fee basis with a guarantee of no hidden commissions or fees. Exchange traded funds should be mentioned frequently. Even though your adviser is an amazing guy, and probably the best in his company, the drip, drip, drip of pressure from earning a commission or being compared against a colleague more prepared to say what it takes to get a deal, will get the best of him over

time. If your adviser is advising you to lock-in your investment to, "Protect you from yourself", or "For tax reasons", watch out! He probably believes that, but just like FIFA officials, he has lost all connection with what good honest advice for his client looks like. The Descartes Explanation I know financial advisers in Shanghai and beyond who, even today, continue to torture logic in this way. They can't understand the fuss about commissions hurting client returns, but French philosopher, mathematician and scientist, René Descartes explained it best when he said, "A man is incapable of understanding any argument that interferes with his revenue". Just like FIFA executives, they really believe their reasons and self-justifications shared and buttressed over years. That's how advisers and good guys can continue to sell their high commission paying product with a straight face, despite the fact they know the client will be lucky to make a positive gain, even in the long term. That's how they can still look people in the eye and say, "This is a good investment for you". The pressure of peers and environment over time is astounding.

COVER STORY

Eat Your Way Through Shanghai With

Glutton Guides Isobel Rose

J

amie Barys’ mission in life is simple: help visitors and residents of Shanghai eat well. The Shanghai-based food writer set out to achieve her goal in December 2010 by launching UnTour Shanghai, a food tour company that guides guests to the best local hole-in-the-wall vendors and street food stands on a walking tour. Since its inception, UnTour has steered more than 6,000 guests through some of the city’s best dumpling houses, night markets and hawker stalls. Now, she has taken her passion a step further with Glutton Guide Shanghai, the first e-guidebook in a new series dedicated to uncovering a city’s best places to eat and drink. Barys and her business partner Kyle Long (also the other half of the UnTour Shanghai founding team) came up with the idea for a food-focused guidebook while trying to plan a holiday itinerary to Hanoi focused entirely on where to eat. “Combined, we had about 20 tabs on our computers and two guidebooks open, all with conflicting reports on where to eat, what to order and how much to pay. In the end, the research required for planning a delicious mealbased itinerary took days, and when we finally put all our research into practice, there were still definite tourist traps and closed restaurants along the way,” says Barys. “In our experience, the amount of information available online is overwhelming, and the relevancy of restaurants listed in guidebooks is underwhelming, so we decided to create a one-stop e-guidebook designed by foodies for foodies.” In order to optimise food-based itinerary planning, Barys and Long have set up a system where each e-guidebook in the Glutton Guides series is written by culinary experts based locally in each target city – there’s no crowdsourced information in this well-curated content. This person is responsible for condensing the city’s dining scene into one easily digestible resource that is regularly updated so readers don’t have to worry about outdated listings. Shanghai, the first e-guidebook in the series, was launched on 1 July. But world travelers need not fear. They already have plans to launch a new e-guide each month in major cities around the world, starting with Melbourne in August and Prague in September. This means no more hauling around last year’s Lonely Planet with your fingers crossed that your restaurant of choice is still open – and hasn’t jacked up the prices from all the press. Foodie cities like Buenos Aires, Montreal and Kuala Lumpur are also in the line-up, and Barys and Long are constantly adding new writers in countries around the globe to keep up with demand from food-focused travellers, hungry to taste the best the world has to offer.

lutton Guides is stepping out as the first and only global, locally written guidebook series to focus solely on the dining scene of its destinations. The Shanghai edition of Glutton Guide covers the city’s dining scene comprehensively, with chapters in the Shanghai book ranging from “Best Street Food” to “Best International Restaurants”. There is also a supplement with maps and general getting around information, so that the food-focused traveller doesn’t need to buy another guide just to get the lay of the land. Barys and Long already had a solid base on which to build their book, having spent long hours producing the best local food tours in Shanghai, writing about food for local lifestyle magazines and eating their way around the city over the last eight years. Still, Glutton Guides in Shanghai has been a long labour of love. “Even for discerning eaters like us, it can be hard to pick the best from all of your favourite places,” says Barys. “We really had to whittle it down and wield our red editing pens freely, but we wanted to create a book that only listed restaurants and bars that would pass our test. For tourists - will they remember the meal when they return home? For expats, will they return again and again to these places with their friends in tow? If the answer to both was yes, then we added it to the book.” In total, Glutton Guides Shanghai took about a year to write, design and produce. This meant they went through several revisions thanks to Shanghai’s dynamic dining scene, as new restaurants opened and some moved to other parts of the city. They will continue to update the book regularly, in order to keep pace with the city.

Visitors to Shanghai will appreciate the “Street Food Safety” chapter, while newcomers and residents alike will be able to utilise the “Food Shopping” section, with tips on buying produce and supplies to cook at home. The guide also covers China’s varied regional cuisines, and where to find them. However, instead of offering listings of every place that serves that cuisine, the 130-plus page book cherry-picks the top restaurants in each category so readers can decide for themselves which style, price point and location serves them best. They’ve also given the Mandarin-illiterate the tools needed to overcome the language barrier. “When I first arrived in China, unable to speak or read Mandarin, ordering at a local restaurant was an intimidating, stressful process. Chinese menus can be upwards of 150 dishes long, so even if you go to a great place, you can still have a bad meal if you don’t know what’s good,” Barys says. “To take the guesswork out of ordering and ensure our readers don’t waste a mouthful when they’ve got limited meals on holiday, we’ve included both recommended dishes and menu translations at all Chinese restaurants.” With the release of Glutton Guide Shanghai and the remainder of the series in the works, Barys may be one step closer to ensuring visitors to Shanghai can now learn to stop dining with other tourists and start eating with locals.

STREET FOOD SAFETY No matter whether you’re chowing down at a night market in Old Town or pulling up a stool at a morning hawker stall in the former French Concession, using these simple tips will help you stay safe and healthy on vacation – and they apply all across Asia. 1. Inspect the vendor’s station Cleanliness is next to godliness, especially when it comes to street food, so check out their mise en place and utensils. If your vendor has a jar for money and asks you to retrieve your own change, that’s a very good sign. Money is one of the dirtiest things we touch daily, so this means that they are already factoring that into their cleanliness. Alternatively, some vendors use utensils or gloves when handling food, so touching money isn’t as much of an issue.

2. Check the vendor’s oil Reused oil is a problem in a lot of the smaller cities around China, but you will occasionally run across a spendthrift vendor frying street food in dark oil. Avoid this at all costs, as reused oil can be dangerous. Most vendors do not keep their oil in its original container. Instead they pour it into smaller water bottles that are much easier to handle than a bulky jug when you’re tossing noodles in a wok with your right hand and throwing in other ingredients with your left. So, just because they are using a Coca- Cola bottle, doesn’t mean they’re bad – just efficient. If their bottle is filled with oil that is a golden yellow colour and has no debris floating in it, it’s generally good to go.

3. Time your meals around peak dining hours When you’re not familiar with a food street, eat at peak dining times so you can make sure turnover is at its highest. This ensures whatever you’re eating is fresh. Never eat something that is pre-cooked and has been sitting out. You should select from raw ingredients and watch the vendor make it fresh before your eyes.

4. Think about what you’re eating Different meats spoil at different rates, so it’s good to keep in mind what spoils fastest. Seafood degrades most quickly,

unnaturally neon pink sausages, you’ll understand why to avoid it all costs.

9. Use all of your senses Sight and smell are just as useful as taste when it comes to checking for spoilage. See a whole fish you want barbecued? Check its eyes are not cloudy and its gills are still red or pink. Smell it. It should smell like the ocean, not fishy.

10. Wash your hands

followed by poultry. Pork, beef and lamb are the slowest to spoil. Keep in mind larger chunks of meat and fish need more time to reach a consistent temperature throughout, so smaller chunks of meat are less risky. Always make sure any meat is cooked through. A general rule of thumb to keep in mind: never eat raw seafood as street food.

A lot of what travellers consider food poisoning actually has nothing to do with the food they are eating, but what they already have on their hands. Make sure you wash your hands before eating (or carry hand sanitizer) and eat with chopsticks. You’ll notice that Chinese people rarely touch their food with bare hands – even in McDonald’s, people keep the burger wrapped in its paper wrapper while they eat.

5. Consider cooking techniques and temperatures

11. Prices can be too good to be true

It’s also a good idea to keep in mind what cooking techniques reach the highest (and thus maximum bacteriakilling) temperatures. Poaching and simmering do not reach boiling point, whereas steaming and boiling are right at 100 ̊C / 212 ̊F. The big flame under the wok when stir-frying reaches about 150 ̊C / 300 ̊F minimum. Deep-frying is even hotter, and grilling has the highest heat.

This is a bit tricky if you’re not already acquainted with how cheap Chinese street food can be, but it’s best thought of as a comparison. Pork costs the same as beef? Definitely not in China. You won’t spend over RMB 10 for most street food, but just keep in mind certain items (like beef) should cost a bit more, just as they do in your grocery store back home.

6. Opt for brick and mortar shops Since roving vendors can set up shop anywhere, they are not always held accountable for their food safety qualifications. Now we’re not saying avoid these at all costs – sometimes they serve the best food – but if you have the time to check they are at the same spot daily, then they’re trustworthy. Many street carts on wheels are nomadic because they hit up the same streets every day, but they choose the peak times for each corner, such as outside metro stops during rush hour or at night markets after sunset.

7. Trust the locals Chinese people try to avoid queuing, so if you see a long line of locals at a vendor (or streetcart), you’re pretty much guaranteed to be on to a good thing. See what everyone else is ordering and follow suit.

8. Avoid processed meats Most food safety scandals in China come out of the processed food industry. Once you get a look at the

Even though summer is the time for breezy sundresses and vacationing, it can be a cruel season – particularly beauty-wise. We have rounded up our common, summer beauty problems and more importantly, the solutions! Banish The Burn Tomato Citrus Sugar Scrub

Sunburns are vicious and it is important to give your skin a little TLC if you plan to tan this season. A tomato sugar scrub is ideal to use before going to the pool, especially if you are prone to bad sunburn. Tomatoes have lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage, and cools your skin down while the sugar helps to exfoliate your skin. For an added bonus, add a little citronella oil to keep mosquitoes at bay.

Tomato Citrus Scrub ¼ medium tomato – finely diced 1 tbsp. lemon zest ½ cup sugar 2 tbsp. cold, pressed coconut oil

Blot Away Blemishes

Method: Combine all ingredients together. With clean hands on skin, gently scrub in circular motions for one minute. Store the remaining scrub in an airtight container and place in the refrigerator. Use within seven to ten days.

Oil Blotting Sheets The summer logic of putting extra powder on your face to avoid shiny patches is not necessarily a healthy practice. Your pores are more susceptible to clog that way. The best way to combat summer face shine is through oil blotting sheets. We like Tatcha's Aburatorigami Sheets. Now dirt, oil, shine and sweat won't be a bother!

Tame The Mane

Tatcha Original Aburatorigami. RMB 72 for one pack of 30 sheets. Web: www.tatcha.com

Anti-Frizz Products And Less Shampooing Curly-haired gals enjoy both volume and frizz from Shanghai’s humid days. Volume is great; frizz is not. Anti-frizz products such as shine spray and oil help to tame flyaway hair. We love Bumble and Bumble's Hairdresser's Invisible Oil. Also, over cleansing your hair makes it more prone to frizz. Experts recommend shampooing once a week and conditioning every other day. Bumble and Bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil. RMB 234. Sephora. 388 Nanjing Xi Lu, near Huangpi Bei Lu. Web: www.sephora.cn

Liberate Your Lips Exfoliate Then Apply A Soothing Lip Balm We all appreciate the quick relief from a glossy lip balm, but when your lips are crying out for some hydration, gloss isn’t always the best solution. Instead, exfoliate your lips with a mixture of olive oil and sugar. Then, apply a lip balm that has shea butter or moisture-rich ingredients such as beeswax, petroleum jelly or paraffin. We recommend Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF 25. It will seal in the moisture and keep your lips luscious.

Olive Oil And Sugar Scrub 3 tbsp. of olive oil 3 tbsp. of sugar Method: Mix them together. Apply to your lips, scrubbing in a circular motion for one minute before cleaning them with a warm, wet towel. Apply lip balm to lock in moisture. Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm SPF 25. RMB 45.

The Tatsumi-yagura Keep, part of the Imperial Palace

The Juxtapositions Of Tokyo

The 333 metre Tokyo Tower

Kermit Marlow

Tokyo is a city of contradictions on a memorising scale. Ancient shrines are a stone’s throw away from futuristic robot shows, cutting edge sky-scrapers flank miniature lanes, while suited and booted commuters roll into metro stations filled with rebellious teenage punks and maids.

T

okyo is certainly one of the world’s must-see cities, and luckily for us, it is superbly connected with many Chinese cities, thus making it a very appealing destination. In terms of low cost airlines, Spring Airlines operates a route from Shanghai Pudong to Tokyo’s Ibaraki Airport for less than RMB 2,000 return. However, do be aware that Ibaraki Airport is about a 90 minute drive from the centre of Tokyo. The cheap airfares are a welcome surprise, as is the relative affordability of food and public transport. Increasing prices in China mean paying RMB 30 for a bowl of ramen noodles, or RMB 100 for a sushi dinner, is not the shock to the wallet that Tokyo once was.

Although one of the most densely populated cities on earth, you will likely find Tokyo’s scale and hustle interesting, as opposed to overwhelming, and the lively neon lit streets not a world away from Hong Kong’s Wan Chai or Shanghai’s Nanjing Road. The major difference between Tokyo and some of Asia’s other mega-cities is the efficient, calm and respectful tone and infrastructure that underlies the day-today happenings. The trains run on time, your food arrives hot, fast and with a smile and there’s almost no street crime. Its efficiency rivals that of Singapore or Frankfurt, but Tokyo has another side; one which raises its head at night, in a wild and vibrant fashion, in districts like Shinjuku, Roppongi and Golden Gai. These districts

are full of KTV bars run by drag queens, nightclubs full of locals, as well as expats, and all kinds of themed cafes. Tokyo’s wild and exotic nightlife cannot be compared to any of its contemporaries, and seems to have something that will appeal to everyone, from business travellers to backpackers. A popular spot for local yuppies is Two Rooms, a rooftop bar, serving sensational cocktails. We recommend knocking back a couple of espresso martinis before heading on to the clubs of Roppongi, Tokyo’s main clubbing district. The clubs there are big, loud, busy and booming, quite a contrast to other bars in the city, usually consisting

of one bar counter with six seats, which once filled, leave little room for breathing. The upside of being packed in like sardines is that you make friends with the clientele very quickly, and within minutes, get wrapped up in the atmosphere of kanbais and karaoke! The city offers the intrepid visitor a plethora of attractions to check out. Get your bearings for the city with a trip up the Tokyo Tower. Though a slightly tacky tribute to Paris’ Eiffel Tower, it is an opportunity for 360degree views over the city. Alternatively, head up the Tokyo Sky Tree, the world’s tallest free-standing tower, at 634 metres, for more incredible views. The Meiji Shrine in Shibuya, surrounded by a dense forest, allows for a peaceful break from the throb of the city, as does Imperial Palace East Gardens. Both offer an insightful look at the country’s majestic history,

well worth exploring during your downtime. However, the inner buildings of the Imperial Palace are unfortunately only open to the masses on certain public holidays, so make sure you check beforehand for the best time to visit. The variety of tourist attractions in Tokyo, as well as its high-level of safety, make the city an ideal family destination. There’s a museum in Tokyo to suit any interest, and the Fire Museum, Museum of Maritime Science and the Railway Museum are sure to keep the kids entertained. The newly opened Railway Museum in Saitama was our favourite, and will definitely keep inquisitive little minds racing.

Nadaman Restaurant, Shangri-La

If combining your weekend in Tokyo with an adjoining business trip, then we recommend staying at the Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo. Occupying the top 11 floors of the Marunouchi Tower, right next to Tokyo Station, it’s situated in the city’s most strategic location for both business and leisure. As well as a spa, lounge, conference and ballroom facilities, the hotel boasts two outstanding restaurants. We dined at the Nadaman restaurant, which has a modern and chic atmosphere. The food was the best we experienced during our stay in Tokyo, and was prepared by seasoned Japanese chefs. The team is particularly proud of their Foie Gras Egg

Custard with Truffle Sauce, which was uniquely delicate yet rich. Also highly recommend is the restaurant’s take on beef shabu shabu, sliced Wagyu beef sirloin with assorted vegetables cooked in a seaweed soup hot pot. A kaiseki dinner set is available for ¥17,000. The meal is a splurge, but certainly one you won’t forget! If you are craving for the very freshest fish in the city, at slightly lower prices, then look no further than the Tsukiji Market. The daily catch arrives at this bustling market in the early hours of the morning, so arrive at around 5am for the

early morning trading. Pick up a breakfast in any of the surrounding tiny establishments, which serve up mouth-watering sushi made from fish purchased just minutes before in the adjoining market. Tokyo is one of the most exciting cities not just in Asia, but the world. Its endless choices of restaurants, hotels, bars and attractions make it a not-to-be-missed destination as well as a conveniently placed location. Whether you’re on a weekend jaunt from China, or on an extended trip around Japan, you are guaranteed to find something to excite, intrigue and marvel at in this urban metropolis.

ince its founding in 1890, under the behest of Imperial Palace, its landmark buildings, which have been re-developed twice, have welcomed countless numbers of statesmen, royalty, fabled celebrities and helmsman of international commerce. Its exclusive location, overlooking the Imperial Palace and Hibiya Park, makes it a perfect base to explore all the sights Tokyo has to offer.

With 931 bedrooms as well as 17 restaurants and bars, the staff, comprising of about 2,000 people, ensure that the hotel can offer the same levels of service as that of a luxury boutique hotel, despite its grand size. Indeed, when we stayed here, it was clear, from speaking to any member of staff throughout the hotel, that service is at the heart of what makes The Imperial one of Tokyo’s more unique and distinctive hotels. During your stay, you will be treated like royalty. After all, the hotel opened in 1890 as an unofficial state guesthouse. To this day, the hotel still has a whole department focused solely on protocol, with 125 years of experience to call upon in order to ensure that your stay is exactly as you expect it to be, and discrete enough for even the most important of VIPs.

New & Noted: Egg Nyima Pratten

What: All-day breakfast from the founder of Shanghai Supperclub Where: 12 Xiangyang Lu, near Changle Lu. Email: hello@ eggshanghai.com Why: For when you really want to “put an egg on it” Egg is the new venture by Camden Hauge, the seemingly indefatigable superwomancum-entrepreneur behind Shanghai Supperclub; a private dinner party that aims to bring a new and interesting mix of people together around one table for

chef collaborations at interesting and changing locations. After quitting her corporate job over a year ago to pursue her passion and make a name for herself in Shanghai’s ever developing food and beverage industry, it has been a bit of a bumpy road. After initially founding Shanghai Supperclub and building momentum behind the ever-popular dinner parties, Hauge was ready to tackle her all-day breakfast dining concept. Unfortunately, the execution took a little longer than expected. However, luckily for Shanghai ren who want to eat breakfast for lunch

and dinner on any day of the week, Egg finally broke onto the scene last month. The chic and newly renovated restaurant space is set across two levels, with a small second floor hovering above the downstairs kitchen. Sunlight streams through the storefront and reflects off the whitewashed walls and beachwood furniture, which makes guests linger and graze on the menu for a little while longer. Egg is still in its “super soft” opening phase, and the simple but wholesome menu is scrawled out on the large blackboard on the ground floor for all to see. We sampled a few dishes including the avo toast (RMB 55 - but we decided to “put an egg on it” for an additional RMB 10), which was straightforward, fresh and garnished with a selection of seasonal herbs. We also enjoyed the spring shakshouka (RMB 65), presented in the skillet it was cooked in. The eggs were poached in a broth chockfull of fresh spring vegetables and served with a slab of bread to mop up all the juicy goodness. Our favourite dish on the

Second Helpings: Pelham’s What: Fine-dining in one of the Bund’s most famous heritage buildings Where: Waldorf Astoria, 2 Zhongshan Dong Yi Lu, near Guangdong Lu. Tel: 6322 9988. Web: www.waldorfastoriashanghai.com Why: To enjoy the new a la carte and three-course lunch set menu We took second helpings at the legendary Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund’s signature fine-dining restaurant, Pelham’s. Chef Jean-Phillippe Dupas has been inspired by the bounty of the season to create a sumptuous summer menu. Chef Dupas has been experimenting with variations of temperature, texture and colour, and this is clearly apparent in all of the beautifully plated dishes on the new a la carte

menu was the corn fritters (RMB 55). The fritters were topped with salsa and a side of rocket leaves. The thick cinnamon toast (RMB 25), oozing with butter and cinnamon sugar, was our naughty ending to an otherwise saintly-healthy meal. Hauge has big plans for the future of the restaurant, including adding meat to the menu (extra electricity was being supplied to the venue as we went to print, so that the restaurant could finally work their griddle, toaster and waffle iron). The upcoming, fleshed-out, menu will also include quirky dishes such as ginger fried rice waffles with spam and poached eggs, and a selection of alcoholic drinks. Hauge will also start the Chef ’s Table Dinner on Thursday nights, which will be similar to Supperclub - catering for dinner parties with rotating chefs for eight to ten people - but a lot more intimate and cheaper. Seats will need to be booked in advance for the Chef ’s Table Dinner, however, so make sure you email the restaurant for more information.

and three-course lunch set menu (RMB 198 +15%), which will be available until the end of August. It goes without saying that Pelham’s is a sophisticated and stylish establishment from the place settings, crockery and glassware, right through to the walk-in wine display and glass exhibition kitchen. However, the restaurant’s modern-style, bright and airy atmosphere and helpful waitstaff will not leave you feeling intimidated. We began our lunch with tourteau crab, which was garnished with pickled daikon, petals and sea urchin, placed around a glass cone filled with different coloured tomato sorbet and tomato gelée, topped with celery Chantilly. For us, this outlandishly colourful creation captured the true spirit of summer. We then moved onto a chilled lobster soup, which was poured over a meaty hunk of lobster tail, solidified corn-bavarois, knuckle consommé and pickled baby corn. For the fish course, we were treated to crispy monkfish. The juicy tail meat of this fish was served with ratatouille-

stuffed baby squid, carrot mousse, polenta, fennel foam and an interesting, Asian inspired, black sesame sponge. Although fit to burst at this point, we moved onto the lamb saddle. Lean and tender, it was served with garlic praline and goats cheese ravioli, which was delicious but too heavy for us to manage at that time, as well as intriguing-looking potato stones that turned out to be baby potatoes encased in a crumbly charcoal-like substance. Dessert was the cherry on top of an extremely satisfying and elegant lunch. The strawberry gateau lined with feuillantine was a vision in many shades of pink and red as it was placed in front of us. Served with passion fruit gel, raspberry chips and lychee sorbet, it was the perfect light, sweet and tart ending to an extravagant meal. Pelham’s new lunch menu makes the venue an ideal location for an upmarket Bund-side lunch meeting, which won’t break the bank. July15  TalkMagazine

Alternative Eats: Lizzy's All Natural Kelly Rodriguez

What: A fresh and more fulfilling alternative to Shanghai's little juice stands Where: Anken Life. Unit S9A, 667 Changhua Lu, near Anyuan Lu. Tel: 185 1617 5274. Web: www.lizzysallnatural.com. Why: For quality, healthy and delicious drinks whenever you want! The little juice stands dotted around Shanghai’s streets can leave a lot to be desired. The watery juice seems to be gone before we notice it and it isn't very nutritious because the cheap juicers remove all the fibres. In short, the juices can be quite unsatisfying. Lizzy's All Natural, however, is a little store that has big plans. Founded by holistic health coach, Elizabeth Schieffelin, Lizzy's All Natural

aims to bring Shanghai residents fresh, high quality beverages. Using the same food provider as many of Shanghai's five-star hotels, Lizzy's ensures quality ingredients for a nutrient-rich drink. They currently offer 36 different blends of green smoothies, fruit smoothies, yogurt smoothies, non-dairy milks and other raw organic drinks. Lizzy's started off as an offshoot of Schieffelin's holistic health coaching. Schieffelin would suggest green smoothie recipes for her high-stress, professional female customers. She eventually started making the drinks for her personal clients. Word got around, as it does in Shanghai, and she started providing a range of 20 green smoothies, fruit smoothies and non-dairy milk recipes. A friend eventually suggested that she open a storefront for the

drinks, and the rest, as they say, is history. Schieffelin's store opened in early May at the Anken Life complex, surrounded by a well-curated range of storefronts including a boxing studio, a flower shop and a spinning centre. But, if you don't want to make your way to northern Shanghai, you can order Lizzy's smoothies exclusively through Kate & Kimi. Schieffelin and the team are currently working on new flavour combinations, which means you’ll never get bored of a healthy smoothie. These new varieties are

currently top secret, but there will definitely be a decent amount of coconut milk, veggies, antioxidant-rich fruits and even some cacao powder. We choose to start our morning off the right way with a Love At First Sight smoothie (RMB 30), a combination of raspberries, cherries, banana, cashew milk, raw organic cacao powder, medjool date, ground flax and Tahitian vanilla. A tangy, sweet and, most importantly, fulfilling drink. Taste tests have been a regular fixture and bigger projects such as smoothie cleanses and protein shakes have started to roll off the line. Schieffelin told us that the next step for her will be to expand the store for lectures and films on healthy living and to reach out to kids. Individual drinks range from RMB 18-32. They also offer smoothie cleanse kits that range from RMB 188 to RMB 208. Lizzy's All Natural is also available for order on www. kateandkimi.com

Somm is named after the French word “sommelier”. Owned by cousins Kelvin Ko and Cruise Gao, Somm takes you on a journey through the reserves of Bordeaux’s finest wines and stories as to why the wines were picked for their wine menu. Because the wines are hand-selected, Ko and Gao have tall tales behind every bottle. The décor at Somm reminds us of a friendly gallery, with bottles of wine lining the

walls, gallery exhibition-style. French-style windows allow daylight to pour in through the space and over the modern furniture, vintage Bordeaux vineyards posters and a bookcase stuffed full of wine reading. Somm also has a private room with sofas for a more intimate setting. The heart of Somm's by-the-glass concept lies in wine education. You can either select your own wines from the standard menu or plump for their tasting menu, which features five themes: White Wines, The Evolution, Drops Of God, Garage Wine and Best Of 2009. Each flight consists of five wines, priced at RMB 200. For our flight, we tried a selection of wines from across the menu but our favourite wine of the evening was the Château de Fargues 1999, a dessert wine. It was fruity, floral and flirty. The perfect way to wind down on a long summer night. Somm provides customers with little tags to go along with each wine they serve and a passport-like book to record their travels through the wine region. Personalised touches such as this are what will keep us going back for more.

Siem Reap Cambodia Although Cambodia's recent history is stained with violence and political turmoil, today the country is home to a robust culture and endless natural beauty. Its people are curious about the outside world and eager to share their country with foreigners through their food or just a warm smile. Sitting in the north-western corner of the country is Siem Reap, the cultural and historical capital of Cambodia. Once home to the vast Khmer civilisation, the area around the city is spotted with countless ancient temples. At sunrise, head to Angkor Wat; the largest religious monument in the world. When you've

Chiang Rai Thailand Sitting just 50 kilometers south of the notorious Golden Triangle convergence of Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos, Chiang Rai is Thailand's northernmost major city. A jumble of night markets, ornate dedications to the King, and food stalls offering delicious Northern Thai curries, the city is rapidly gaining the attention of tourists. While one could spend days wandering the hectic streets of Chiang Rai, you can also use the city as a jumping off point to explore the beautiful scenery in and around Northern Thailand. Rent a motorbike and drive the 65 kilometre north to the border town of Tachileik, Myanmar. Once across the border, you can hire a tuk tuk driver to take you around a few local attractions: a Shan meditation temple, Shwedagon pagoda, and a “gem” market. Another great destination by motorbike is Mae Salong, a village high in the mountainous region northwest of Chiang Rai. The village is home to a Chinese Kuomintang refugee community, originally settled by the troops of the Republic of China Army’s 93rd Division who refused to surrender after the Communist victory in 1949. Instead, they fought their way out of China and into Burma where they hid in the jungles until granted asylum in Thailand. Once the epicenter of the opium trade, the poppy fields have since been replaced by fields of tea. The village feels like a return to China. Most of the residents speak Chinese and all of the street signs and business names are written in Chinese characters.

At this time of day, the Tomb Raider temple, which is slowly yielding to an encroaching jungle, is virtually free of other guests. At dusk, take in Bayon, another sprawling temple adorned with hundreds of giant stone faces. Stand atop the impressive structure and marvel at how it was created over 800 years ago. For those looking for a day trip outside Siem Reap, channel your inner Indiana Jones at Beng Mealea, a crumbling temple completely overgrown by jungle. On the way back into the city, stop at Banteay Srei, the Citadel of Women, a stunning temple built of red limestone housing some of the most intricate carvings found anywhere in the Angkor kingdom. Once tired of temples, Siem Reap has plenty to offer those who have taken in enough culture for one trip. Pub Street, a backpacker Mecca, is lined with crowded bars offering beer for pennies. While Pub Street is great for drinks, go elsewhere for dinner. Try The Indian just around the corner for shockingly delicious Indian food or travel a little outside town to Touich for an upscale, but still affordable, take on traditional Cambodian cuisine. Cambodia is a land of contrasts. One of the world's most impoverished populations sits in the shadows of imposing monuments built by an ancient civilisation of unimaginable grandeur. An older generation remembers the horrors of an all-to-recent genocide while young Cambodians brim with confidence about the future of the rapidly developing nation. These contradictions play out on a canvass of beautiful scenery, making Cambodia a destination of unparalleled mystery and discovery.

Puerto Galera

Pesos to Yuan rate and ease of travel from Shanghai directly to Manila. Upon arrival in Manila, most tourists opt for the famed and beautiful beaches of Boracay and El Nido. However, we suggest slipping off to the equally, if not more, beautiful secluded beaches of Puerto Galera in Oriental Mindora. Travel overland to Batangas and then ride a banca across the crystal clear, blue sea to Puerto Galera. As soon as you step off the banca onto the shore of White Beach, the most popular of Puerto Galera’s 32 beaches the holiday begins.

Hop in a jeepny visit a beach area called the Sandbar; a beautiful long stretch of white sand jutting out into the ocean with water on either side. From here, you can hire out a two-seater, motorised banca to indulge in a spot of snorkelling. Ask the helmsmen to kill the engine and jump into the sparklingly clear water, put on your snorkelling gear and hold on to the outriggers as he starts up the engine again. It is an ingenious way of covering a lot of ground whilst taking in the spectacular underwater scenery. After periods of flying through the water at high speeds, if you’re lucky the boat will hovering above bustling underwater ecosystems while you are handed

fistfuls of bread to feed the fish. The bold aquatic creatures will literally take the food right from your hands and swim all around you. Viewing this unspoilt area of the ocean is a humbling experience and particularly moving for children, hopefully inspiring them to learn more about environmental awareness and marine preservation. The Philippines could easily be a holiday just about lounging on the beach and diving or snorkelling in the clear waters but, if you scratch the surface, there is even more to discover in the way of arts, culture and local history. Go forth and explore.

Inle Lake Myanmar Myanmar, formally known as Burma, the once isolated state, is slowly working to expand its tourism industry. Although this might be a hard, after long being associated with oppression and a military junta, over the past few years, great strides have been taken towards a building a brighter future for the country. Catch an internal flight to Heho from Yangon before taking a one-hour taxi to Inle Lake, famous for its leg-rowing fishermen who manage to balance on one leg at the end of their longboats, whilst casting their fishing nets. The lake is a place of unimaginable beauty, with bright blue skies reflecting onto the calm water and making it almost impossible to tell where one finishes and the other

Sapa Vietnam A seemingly endless series of rice terraces and an eclectic blend of ethnic minority hill tribes make the remote region surrounding the town of Sapa, in north-western Vietnam, an ideal destination for travellers looking to trade Shanghai's smog for crisp mountain air. With no commercial airport, the most common route into the area is by bus or train from Hanoi. The overnight ride ends in Lao Cai where smaller minibuses make the one-hour trip to Sapa and the twohour drive to Bac Ha. Start your trip in Bac Ha. Every Sunday morning, sleepy Bac Ha is transformed as members of the local hill tribes descend into town for the weekly market hoping to buy and sell livestock, food, clothing and other necessities. The empty hotels fill up and the pace of life escalates dramatically as the streets

become packed with stunningly dressed ethnic minorities making their way to and from market. The Flower Hmong are the most vibrant. Women dressed head-to-toe in traditional garb pedal colourful handicrafts while the men, for the most part, sit and drink homemade corn vodka. When leaving Bac Ha, catch a minibus back to Lao Cai. From there, the drive to Sapa is a steep climb into the mountains. A long time stop on the backpacker trail, Sapa is the region's tourism hub, sitting in the shadow of Mt. Fansipan, the nation's highest peak. The city has a completely different feel than Bac Ha, where tourism is just beginning to catch on. Instead, busy hotels, restaurants, and souvenirs shops line the streets of the small, dense downtown area. Stop by the daily market for an assortment of Hmong handicrafts and local delicacies or take in the views from any of a number of restaurants overlooking the valley. While the crisp air, beautiful views and peaceful feel of the quaint mountain town may be hard to leave behind, the real magic happens on short multiday treks outside the city. Check out Sapa Sisters; a trekking company organised to benefit women in the local communities. Led by Hmong women, the various treks can accommodate groups of any size and skill level. Regardless of how fit you may be, the twelve year old Hmong girls who accompany each trek will make you feel out of shape, but they'll include plenty of breaks to let you catch your breath. Hike through bamboo forests, along the thin walls of centuries old rice terraces, past waterfalls and up soaring peaks. Words and pictures don't do the landscape justice. The incredibly gracious people, the stunning scenery and the calm pace of life make any visit to Sapa unforgettable.

Kuantan Malaysia Malaysia attracts visitors from all around the world throughout the year thanks to its temperate climate, interesting culture and awesome food. However, whilst many head to the popular beaches of Penang on the West Coast, travel to the less popular, but pristine, beaches on the East Coast of the country. Kuantan is the state capital of Pahang, which stretches along the South China Sea. Cherating, about 30 kilometres north of Kuantan, is known as the epicentre for Malaysian surfing and populated by a ragtag crew of international and local surfers. In the small village, it is possible to rent surfboards and body boards along with wetsuits or snorkels, for those who are not so coordinated. The surf breaks far out from the village and offers both experts and beginners the

begins. Spend a few nights in Nyaung Shwe, a town in Shan state that lies on the north of the lake. Shan is known as the garden state and produces most of the fruit and vegetables in the country. We found that the best way to get to grips with the famous five-day market, Shan food and the local way of life for people living on and around the lake was a Shan cooking class with Mr. Min (myomintun2008@ gmail.com). Eager Mr. Min picks his guests up in the morning for an early rummage around rotating market. The group is then transported by longboat to his family’s stilt house on the lake. Have a crash course in Shan food with an introduction to each dish and the local ingredients used; make sure you request the tealeaf salad. It’s extremely interesting to note the Southeast Asian, India and Chinese cooking influences. Not to be missed is a visit to Red


local magku (priest) and a dip in the (rather cold) waters. Participants form an orderly queue to dip their heads beneath a dozen fountains of spring water, wrapped only in white saris, coming out the other end decidedly chilly, but also rather clean, both inside and out. The key to finding oneself, according to books and movies that is, is to take a step back and get some space between yourself and the relentless pull of daily life. In that vein, stay at Four Seasons Resort Bali at Sayan for a transcendental experience. Unfurling

Mountain Estate Vineyards and Winery. This is one of the only two wineries in Myanmar. Perched on a sloping hill, go for a wine tasting and stay for the splendid view out over the lake. It is also possible to stay in a stilt hotel on the lake itself. Amazing Hotel is a low-budget, high-quality hotel brand in Myanmar, which has a hotel in Nyaung Shwe as well as Inle Lake (www.amazing-hotel.com). Spend a few days in a stilted, wooden room on the lake, taking longboat tours to surrounding, floating villages. The smiling, welcoming and deeply spiritual people in Myanmar, along with the beautifully stunning and unspoilt scenery, make the country a must-visit destination.

chance to get out onto the waves. A short drive away from Cherating is the Kemaman Terengganu Turtle Hatchery (Tel: +60139064828). This small hatchery aims to protect green back turtles that lay their eggs on the East Coast beaches. At the hatchery, if you’re lucky, you can glimpse freshly hatched green back turtles, and release them into the sea that evening. Unfortunately, giant leather back turtles, that were once prevalent in this area, no longer come to Malaysia’s East Coast to lay their eggs. Previously, the beaches were not protected so locals and tourists alike were able to disturb the female turtles when they were laying their eggs. Now, however, the local government protects

Ubud Indonesia Ubud was once Bali’s hidden gem; a quiet hideaway only a few kilometres long, but in many ways a million miles from the crass hustle of Kuta. Then Elizabeth Gilbert arrived. The author’s autobiographical account of her yearlong sabbatical, “Eat, Pray, Love” (the Love part covers her time living in Ubud) spurred a herd of modern women to make their way to this island paradise. Here they hope to reconnect with their spiritual side – and perhaps meet a Javier Bardem-esque love interest, as Julia Roberts, playing Gilbert, does in the movie adaption of the book. The township of Ubud itself quiet by Asian holiday destination standards, and filled to bursting with vegetarian restaurants, coffee shops and souvenir stores selling all manner of silver, woodcarvings and other assorted handicrafts. A cultural highlight of the area is a trip to Tirta Empul, Bali’s most sacred natural springs, for a purification ceremony involving offerings of flowers and incense, prayers from a

from the tropical jungle foliage, alongside the sacred Ayung River, the form of the hotel’s Dharma Shanti Yoga Bale is based upon the elegant and natural curve of a leaf, with the silhouette gently resting on the edge of the surrounding forest. The bale is constructed entirely of locally sourced bamboo, grown throughout the river valleys and mountainsides of Indonesia and offers anti-gravity yoga, a one-of-akind health and wellness experience that utilises bespoke hammocks to create a support system, allowing for greatly expanded levels of movement and flexibility. Let all of life’s tensions go as you breathe in the jungle air, whilst suspended in the air and relaxing into the emerald-green jungle landscape.

the beaches and no one can visit the beach during the evening, unless with a guide. Although seeing a green back turtle swim out of the sea to lay her eggs is not guaranteed, you may be lucky enough to catch the beautifully intimate moment. On the drive back to Kuantan, there is the opportunity to take a sightseeing tour to watch fireflies (Tel: +60179789256). In the evening, journey on a small boat though the mangrove to see fireflies in their natural environment. Wellknown local guide, Hafiz, is an extremely inspiring and passionate firefly enthusiast. As you float past trees teaming with the critters, watch him flash a torchlight and beckon the fireflies out. It’s an awesome display that will certainly put a smile on your face.

Singapore Let the Lion City capture your heart with a debaucherous trip full of visits to delicious hawker centres, trendy shopping malls, fascinating cultural activities, beautiful architecture and thrilling parties. Singapore is a cultural melting pot of nationalities. Just over five million people live on the small island country, yet two million of them are foreign born.

The majority of the population is made up of Chinese followed by Malays, Indians, Eurasians and countless others. The cultural diversity of the people and the culture is striking for anyone who lives in Mainland China and is used to the omnipresence of a single race. Grab a map and take a walk starting from the Asian Civilisation Museum to City Hall. On your way, take in Parliament House, originally a

private mansion it is now the oldest government buildings in Singapore. Next, work your way up towards Makansutra Glutton’s Bay hawker market, located on the Esplanade, with a fantastic view across the water looking out to Marina Bay Sands, the famous, if slightly odd building topped by a boat. Order the famous, local chilli crab, rich in flavour and accompanied by a thick and delightfully gelatinous sauce or the famous oyster omelette. Visit the Peranakan Museum to learn more about a unique local community formed in and around the Singapore area from the intermarriages of Chinese and Malay people. The museum is housed in a beautiful colonial style building, formally the Tao Nan Chinese School, and possesses one of the most comprehensive collections of Perenakan objects. Shop at Raffles City or reflect on your trip over a well-deserved, and infamous, Singapore Sling at the Long Bar in Raffles Hotel. The country’s namesake drink was actually created at the Long Bar in the early 20th century and is more popular than ever today, with hoards of people vying for a seat at the famous watering hole. Make sure to grab some monkey nuts and scatter your shells on the floor like the locals. No visit to Singapore is complete without a visit to Gardens By The Bay. This is a great place for adults and children alike. Escape to a natural

playground where you are transported from the city into an exotic adventure playground. Walk the OCBC Skyway, a 128-metre long walkway at a height of 22-metres connecting two Supertrees in the Super Grove and dine at the 50-metre high Supertreetop bistro for panoramic views of the surrounding area. Your lungs will feel completely cleansed after a day at the eco-friendly park, and from a stay in the Singaporean Garden City in general.

natural ecosystem and countless waterways means the country is emerging as a prime outdoor adventure destination. Most people fly in and out of Vientiane and the sleepy capital is a gentle introduction to the temperate temperament of Laos. There are some nice things to see, including Pha That Luang (Great Stupa) – a gold-covered Buddhist stupa on the eastern outskirts of town regarded as the national symbol of Laos. The UNESCO World Heritage listed Luang Prabang is the country’s gorgeous former imperial capital. It’s dotted with 32 wats of all shapes and sizes, inhabited by thousands of saffron-robed monks and framed by charming French colonial architecture. One of the most popular tourist activities happens daily at dawn, when the townspeople rise with the sun to offer alms to the monks. Lining up in order of seniority the monks (aged from 80 to novices younger than eight) file

through the streets, filling their bowls with sticky rice. Later in the day, walk through the town, admiring the colonial architecture and stopping in at any wats that catch your eye. Constructed in 1560 by King Setthathirat, Vat Xieng Thong is the most historically significant and magnificent wat in Luang Prabang. The home of royal coronations and the centrepiece of many festivals, the site is dominated by the central sim, but there are dozens of other structures within the compound, including stupas, a drum tower, monks’ quarters, a library and a chapel. Another must-try experience is a boat trip on the Mekong River to the Pak Ou caves, about 25 kilometres from Luang Prabang. The journey is certainly a big part of what makes this such a peaceful way to spend half a day, with two hours of leisurely boating there and back. The caves themselves house thousands of Buddha statues placed there by devout locals.

Luang Prabang Laos The best way to describe Laos is to talk about what it’s not. It doesn’t have the same number of tourists as its neighbouring countries, or the same number of sights. Much of the experience of the country’s mostvisited city, Luang Prabang, comes from spending your days wandering and your nights eating by the mighty Mekong River and drinking icy-cold Beer Laos. Unlike every other tourist destination in Asia, you won’t be hounded by taxi or tuk tuk drivers from the moment you exit the airport and shopping at local markets isn’t accompanied by a bout of frenzied haggling. Beggars are few and far between and Buddhism is inescapable, with a wat (temple) on almost every street corner.

David Travers is the newly appointed General Manager of InterContinental Shanghai Expo, bringing with him over 30 years experience with InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG). Born in England, but now an Australian citizen, David has worked in a variety of countries with IHG including Fiji, Malaysia, New Zealand and Australia. He arrives at InterContinental Shanghai Expo having worked previously in Shenyang and Shanghai - and most recently in Beijing, where he was IHG's Area General Manager, based at the successful Crowne Plaza Beijing Chaoyang U-Town. Mr Travers will lead the hotel team and build on the hotel's past success in the rapidly developing Shanghai Expo business and commercial centre.
