Lemme know what you think ⬇️
✈️ This luxury boutique hotel is a hidden oasis in Sri Lanka.
Just 20 minutes from Colombo International Airport, it is a convenient yet unique stay for the start or end of your trip.
🛌 18 contemporary guest rooms in the 18th century manor house with spa-like bathrooms that suit solo, couple or family travel.
I stayed in a Garden Suite and had a beautiful private garden to ourselves. They even have Suite rooms that come with a plunge pool, garden, bathtub and larger living space for absolute privacy.
💦 Jungle pool in the 200-year-old tropical garden that feels like a dreamy escape from your city life.
🍳 Hotel restaurant with a variety of cuisines. Don’t forget to order a mocktail/cocktail. The fruits used in your drinks are freshly made and taste exceptional.
🧖‍♀️ In-house spa services. Currently, you’ll get a USD30 spa voucher per night stay when you book direct.
🥬 Vegetable & fruit farm within the hotel which you can visit. You get to feed the exotic local goats too.
🎱 Games, books and cozy spots throughout the hotel. You can also do outdoor/wellness/culinary/sightseeing activities that are planned by the hotel for you.
🌟 Bonus: Experience different parts of Sri Lanka with @teardrop_hotels.
This hotel group offers personalized itinerary where you get to travel around Sri Lanka while staying in their unique boutique hotels that are designed for you to feel at home, away from home.
💰 From where I’m from (Singapore), this is a luxury boutique hotel without a hefty price tag. Each night starts from SGD350 or USD260 with complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, fresh food platter on arrival, and mini bar beverages.
While you’re there, don’t forget to brew the top quality complimentary tea that are provided at your hotel room or bring the tea bags home. 😌🍵
After all, you’re traveling in a tea paradise!

From 💨 rushing to 😌 relaxing…
I don’t normally expect much for hotel food but this is a good start for my first-time stay at @teardrop_hotels Wallawwa in Sri Lanka.
First night:
🍞 In-house bread
🥗 Asian Nicoise Salad
🐟 Pan Fried Barramundi
🥩 Pan Fried Beef Tenderloin
🍹Pina Colada and Mango Mojito
😂 Too full for desserts! And not warmed up for local food yet.
Next morning:
🍞 Bread Basket with different jams
🍉 Mixed Fruit Platter
🥤 Mixed Fruit Juice
🍳 Eggs Benedict
🥞 French Toast
☕️ Coffee and Tea
😋 Ate well before we hit the road!
Both meals are included in our half board basis stay with a wide variety of food options to choose from.
Fruits are harvested from the hotel’s farm.

🇱🇰 Do you enjoy trying local cuisine when you travel? I ordered Spicy Lagoon Prawn rice & curry and it actually arrived like this!
Welcome to the world of Sri Lankan cuisine.
This unexpected platter was such a delightful lunch treat during my all-inclusive stay at Camellia Hills by @teardrop_hotels where all meals are made from scratch and made-to-order.
It came with a selection of vegetable curries, brinjal moju, pol sambol, fried dry chilli, papadam and saffron rice.
I requested for lesssss spicy and they nailed it!
Swipe ➡️ to hear the dish introduction.
Our waiter was very patient and keen about sharing the local cuisine with us. Such passion and pride made our dining experience even more memorable.

Here’s why ⬇️ … ‎ ‎ ‎ I told m

Here’s why ⬇️ …
‎
‎
‎
I told my ❤️ that I’m not interested to go fine dining (not just on our first date but also during our first 6 months).
Instead, we spend time grocery shopping, cooking, dancing in the kitchen and discovering our palates together through the food we cook and the places we stumble upon together.
BUT… WHY?
⚠️ warning: not your conventional dating/life tips:
1. My intention is to know and understand my person better on a deeper level first and not get distracted by something that I clearly know I would easily enjoy (i.e. fine dining).
2. If they can’t cook or don’t enjoy cooking, heck, that’s not my ❤️ for sure 😂.
One might argue that money can buy food delivery, a meal at the restaurant or even hire a personal chef, but nothing can sparkle my heart more than eating the food that is prepared and cooked by me and my ❤️ and I only realize it through our experiences together.
That’s another level of intimacy that money can’t buy.
3. If you’re going on a first date, and getting to the highly coveted restaurant is a form of flex, then you/your date is trying to impress with power, money and influence. It doesn’t necessarily translate into love, romance and devotion.
To me, it’s more important to get the core values right before diving into the luxury pleasures.
What about you?

Featuring this Spring 2023 dish at 🌟🌟 @jaanbykirk:
Langoustine is roasted and served with sweet peas, Swiss chard, romanesco, broccolini, choy sum flowers, cavolo nero and served alongside a warm brown butter mayonnaise.
Love this sublime dish by @chefkirk_w.
This is also the most beautiful 🌟🌟 Michelin-star restaurant in Singapore that I’d highly recommend for solo dates, romantic dates and celebrations.

SAVE THIS ✨Daily Mantra✨
-
Recently, a new friend of mine asked about my mantra in life - especially when in face of adversity.
I gave it a thought and I realized that I’ve always had this “I’m a lucky girl” mantra ever since I was a little girl.
I believe in creating my own luck that makes me 𝒍𝒖𝒄𝒌𝒚.
And if life closes off something for me, I trust that it’s a redirection that will bring me closer to what’s actually meant for me.
Turns out, it is always wayyyy better than what I used to hold on to.
What about you?

Happy birthday @chefkirk_w! 🎉 You’re the firs

Happy birthday @chefkirk_w! 🎉 You’re the first chef who made me feel welcomed back in Singapore when I was quarantined at @swissotelthestamford 2 years ago.
The “snacks” turned out to be a 3-course meal in the comfort of the hotel room.
Months later, I embarked on my first solo fine dining at @jaanbykirk to celebrate my birthday right before you got your 🌟🌟 Michelin stars.
It was a night filled with fireworks (Singapore’s National Day), special menu with the great company of my own without feeling alone.
My second visit was your collaboration with @adills1 before he got his 🌟🌟 Michelin stars in UK 🇬🇧 within the same month this year.
It was a marriage of delicate and rich flavour profiles in one afternoon at your beautifully renovated restaurant.
The tasting at @jaanbykirk two days ago, marks the first time I get try your new Spring menu.
Dining at @jaanbykirk feels like having a gastronomic meal in your stunning home. Even the signature plates are designed by you at @gaya.ceramic.
“Delicate yet complex” as described on your menu, is absolutely what it is at @jaanbykirk.
With exquisite dishes inspired by your hometown in Devon 🇬🇧 that are cooked to your liking and shared with every destination diner who visits your restaurant at the 70th floor of @swissotelthestamford in Singapore 🇸🇬.
May this 🎂 year brings you everything that you wish for at @jaanbykirk and more! 🎈

The No.1 Chef in India showing me his pop up kitchen in Singapore?? 😲
Being back and based in Singapore makes me realize how exciting our gastronomy scene has dramatically evolved in the past year.
My approach when experiencing new foods and cuisines is to have curiosity & appreciation.
Through that, I’ll find what I love ❤️
This gastronomy experience at @indianaccent is definitely one of my highlights that kickstart this May.
This 2-week residency has started on 9 May and will end on 25 May 2023.
If you’ve been a fan or simply new to innovative Indian cuisine like me, a delicious @indianaccent adventure at @themandalamasters is not to be missed.

🇱🇰 I got to cook at this ✨dreamy✨ location, 900m above sea level during my stay at @teardrop_hotels in Sri Lanka.
Chef @ranasingha.danushka taught me how to cook Sri Lankan dishes and made it so easy to follow.
The best part was to enjoy all the delicious dishes 🥘 at the end. So worth it! (Stay tuned for my vlog).
