What happens when a Chef who very well could be a famous movie star, uses his experiences from working at some of the world’s finest restaurants - Eleven Madison Park , The Modern and Jean Georges - re-interprets the ‘wow’ flavours of globally loved Thai cuisine, by using 21st century techniques to deconstruct dishes, using the freshest and finest of seasonal ingredients to present his diners with culinary art on a plate?

On a recent business trip to Seoul, South Korea, I chose to stay at the Four Seasons Hotel. Not only had I heard from friends, that the relatively new glass-and-steel hotel, designed by Su Sin Tao of Singapore, offered guests a perfect blend of luxury and style, but also that the location of the hotel on Seoul’s North Bank, was hard to beat.

On the site of the first Welsh Parliament, stands an Edwardian country house hotel. Llangoed Hall was the last of our stops during a recent summer trip to Wales. Of all the remarkable properties we experienced while in the United Kingdom, Llangoed Hall in Llyswen, Powys, was the best in terms of showcasing an ideal mix of a perfect countryside location, a fine dining restaurant on-site, vast manicured grounds, tasteful interiors and exceptional service.

While researching the internet, Laveena and I chanced upon one of the best kept secrets in mid Wales. Lake Vyrnwy, offers visitors a chance to escape to a hidden paradise on earth.

After a nearly 5 and a half hour long drive from Newbridge On Usk, which included a lunch stop at a Michelin quality restaurant – ‘Dorrington’s Horseshoes’ run by the lovely Tanya Manolova, we arrived at Bodysgallen Hall and Spa. The wonderfully Welsh stone manor sits on Pydew Mountain and offers some of the finest views in this neck of North Wales.

If you like being fussed over in a 200 year old rustic yet chic, riverside hideaway, miles from anywhere, you have to drive over to Newbridge-on-Usk. We arrived here this afternoon and were enchanted by the tiny hamlet located in the village of Tredunnock, in Monmouthshire, south east Wales, in the United Kingdom.

Last Saturday, Laveena and I, along with my parents Razia and Munna, boarded a magic-carpet and glided into the enchanting world of Maffy’s, a quaint little Pan-Arabian restaurant located just steps away from the magnificent Taj Mahal Palace hotel in Mumbai.

In the midst of a dense jungle, along the foothills of the Western Ghats, there lies a military-styled luxury camp, where retired Indian army Generals and Colonels, and their team of brave and fearless men in uniform, share their years of training in counter terrorism, armed combat and survival skills, with guests who have checked into DATA ( Della Adventure Training Academy).

March is already here! The Colour of this month is Saffron and we have so much going on at the resorts: A sushi master, Michelin dining, a world renowned therapist, an athlete and many more are in store.

Last December, to celebrate my mother Razia’s birthday, the family traveled to Dubai. While dad and mum stayed at my brother Aiyaz's  beautiful home, located on the trunk of the man-made Palm, Laveena and I checked into Fairmont The Palm.
