Liu He market is not within normal walking distance. You need to take a train. Liu He market is really full of yummy food! Must go must eat!

I left Xin jue jiang about 8+pm and the place is till crowded. Not sure the closing time but i believe will be the same as Ximending in Taipei, by 11pm most shops are closed.

Not sure if there are other options but I bought the ferry tickets just beside the jetty. Walk through the Danshui old street beside the river and you will not miss it.

Comment on Sinful moment at Coffee Club, Singapore by Angel

Angel — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 15:32:33 +0000

So you like Malacca satay celup? me too … I used to think Capitol satay celup was nice but not until I chanced upon a new shop called Satay Celup Nyonya at Taman Melaka Raya, road heading towards Dataran Pahlawan. Unlike the others, this sauce has a tangy twist with a little bit of sweetness. I think this satay celup is now DE BEST!! Sedap sekali!! Hygienic and clean and each stick is only RM0.50 but it’s not halal tho!! Go try and judge it for yourself … Bon Appetit ;o)

Hi!

This hotel looks good!!

I’m looking at the website, it seems that you can only check in after 6pm?
May I know if this is correct?

Also, there is a hot water tub in all the rooms right?

Comment on Future star Hotel located right in middle of the shopping district at Ximending, Taiwan 明日大飯店 by Dodo

Dodo — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 18:34:51 +0000

I stayed there once and had the unpleasant experience of someone following me to ask to borrow my toilet. It didn’t help that I was travelling alone and it was my first night. Therefore I was awfully freaked out.

The management didn’t do much about it.

The location is fantastic, the room is really no-frills, and relatively clean.

Although only partially opened it is already a place of excitement. In addition to the casino, people queue up to take a glimpse of the Universal Studio even before it is funtional.

There is another lift at the reception which is able to bring you up to the higher floors. Lucky me else I die having to carry my 15kg luggage up

If you get the room as the same level as the reception, good. Because those rooms are new
Note those on the higher floors are still not renovated yet!

Hey i stayed there before. Cheap, good and convenient.

Just make sure they give you the room at the same level as the reception else you have to lug your luggage upstairs. Or does the lift serve upstairs?

Hi Gary, yes, is near 美丽岛 station. Less than 5 minutes walk once you exit the MRT station. Can’t remember the exit number though. I was carrying/pulling a large luggage and made it to the hotel in 1 piece! Hotel is just 1 street behind the main road.

Hi Annoymous! :p

Their rack rates (publish rates) cost an average of SGD$400. If you are going with kids, you can visit the Festive hotel. Will provide more information when we get to stay there!

Making money is secondary, at least for now. Via our blog, we want to remember our nice holidays and also share it with everybody who loves to travel. Along the way, make new friends and share our travel dreams.

Glad you enjoy it and we are improving how we present our vacations:)
Let us know how we can improve as well.
Thanks.

Comment on Our 10 travel resolutions in 2010 for a nice holiday, travel travel travel! by travel deals

travel deals — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 14:35:54 +0000

Why do we consider travel a basic desire nowadays? In 2008, only 30 percent of trips over 50 miles were done for business – the rest- for pure pleasure. Work is nerve-racking, the family needs to be fed and money is and will always be a problem. Meanwhile, there are hot deals on flights, romance is in the air in Paris no matter the season and life is still waiting for you at the corner

Comment on What to eat in Vietnam? Introducting Pho 24, Vietnam chain restaurant by Derek Chan

Derek Chan — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 13:14:24 +0000

Tried Pho 24 or Pho 2000. Want to try something unconventional. Pho with clams. I was wondering with some friends along the street near the ben thanh market and bump into this eatery called Pho Ngheu Huong Thanh. Wow, pho with clams. Never heard of it before. Tried the spicy soup with clams and yes, yes. It taste really good and we like the clams fried with lemon grass and chilli and its not hot at all and goes so well with bread. Drank their signature beverage called this Green Ocean and mann, it was refreshing. Located at 276 Le Thanh Ton, district 1. HCMC.
