Everything Tastes Better With Wine

2020-04-30T10:55:24+01:00

We kicked off the Christmas week with our annual staff dinner party. The team was excited to share in some of the vintage wines my husband dug out of his cellar - three beautiful bottles of red Chateau Peyrabon 1986 from Medoc, that worked well with the meat dishes. I’ve been feeling very grateful this year for many things. My staff have been wonderful and as a token of appreciation, I wanted them to enjoy a delicious fun filled evening with all the bells and whistles. We commenced our feast with a toast of clear shots of spirits and rice wines. The [...]

Burst Of Flavour

Inspiring The Adventure

2020-04-30T10:55:25+01:00

Eighteen months on and I’m still going and going strong. Whew! it has been a tremendous feat but with every passing day I know I’m moving towards something wonderful. It all started when I felt that there was a need to shake up the stereotypical perception these days that chinese food is synonymous to fast food noodles in a box. The bank refused to lend as we were considered to be a high risk sector. In the early stages, we faced doubts as to whether it was going to be a viable business. The trip adviser critiques were difficult to digest [...]
