Ancient City Tour of Ephesus, a UNESCO World Heritage Site!

One of the best things to do in Turkiye, Ephesus Archeological Site is vast so allocate hours to explore. Lucky for me, visiting during the winter allowed for a peaceful exploration without the usual crowds, and I felt like I had the site all to myself.

Celebrating a vibrant and diverse food scene, shaped by over 200 nationalities, Dubai has cemented its position as a culinary hub and gastronomic destination, being named one of the world’s top 10 cities for foodies and ranked second in the world for restaurant density.

So it's not surprising that Dubai has a Michelin Guide.

During The Best Chef Awards, I tried 5 restaurants in Dubai in both Michelin Recommended and Michelin Star categories and loved the fact that diverse cuisines are very well-represented, from Japanese and Portuguese to Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines.

Featured in this post are some photos from the best meal I had in Dubai, which was also the best fine dining Indian food I've ever had at Tresind Studio.

MasterChef Erim gave me a Kitchen Tour at 2 Michelin Star restaurant in Istanbul, Turk Fatih Tutak!

It was so interesting to learn about this. I went back in 2023. Erim Şanal joined MasterChef Türkiye season 8 which premiered June 2024. I only found out he was a contestant because someone commented on my Turk Fatih Tutak video on YouTube that's it's him who guided me on the kitchen tour.

Jamaica bucket list checked! ✅ I finally climbed Dunn's River Falls in Ocho Rios!

The first time I made it to Dunn's River Falls, we only had time to admire but not climb this beautiful waterfalls. But I told myself that it's something I definitely want to do the next time I'm back. So when I did the Holland America Line Western Caribbean Cruise with a stop in Ocho Rios, I booked the Dunn's River Falls Express Shore Excursion. And it was EPIC! What a thrill and I highly recommend.

I decided not to bring any electronics to fully enjoy and immerse myself in the climb, and opted to just buy the photos and videos from their in-house person. Package was USD40 for photos and video.

A Gem for Filipino food in Fort Lauderdale! 🤤

I had one night in Fort Lauderdale before the cruise and, after the 2.5-hr flight delay, I was starving when I landed. Luckily, a search of restaurants near my hotel showed quite a bit of Filipino restaurants surprisingly!

I visited Isla Pilipinas Cafe, and it reminded me of dining in Manila, complete with the friendliness and hospitality of the staff. 🇵🇭

Silog is typically a breakfast dish but they serve it all day. And I saw they had Lechon Kawalisilog which is not a silog you'd commonly find since you wouldn't normally eat lechon kawali for breakfast lol

I initially wanted crispy sisig but a whole plate of it would be too much to eat for one person so I chose this instead. And it definitely hit the spot! 👌

If you're staying near Fort Lauderdale airport / cruise port and want to try Filipino food, this is the spot! 🙌
