When the IKEA CNY brochure landed in my mailbox, one item immediately grabbed my attention: IKEA Salted Egg Chicken Wings. My husband and I are huge salted egg fans—we love anything salted egg. Since I was already planning to pop by IKEA last week to check out their festive cookies, we figured why not just have […]
So there we were, done with sightseeing for the day. It was already drizzling, and we were planning to just walk back to our hotel and call it a day. Then I spotted Amorino Gelato on the way and honestly, couldn’t resist grabbing some gelato to eat. What is Amorino Gelato? Amorino Gelato is a […]
Fries time again! If you’ve been following my Amsterdam and Brussels posts, you’ll realise I’ve been eating WAY TOO MUCH fries. Honestly, I think it’s the most popular street food in this part of Europe. When the weather’s chilly and you want something warm but not a full meal, hot crispy fries just feel right. […]
So, Delirium Village Brussels. You’ve probably heard about it in the news. Delirium Café holds a Guinness World Record from 2004 for having the most beer varieties in the world — a whopping 2,004 of them. Now they claim to have almost 2,500. Amazing.

One glance at their menu plastered on the glass door and plans changed instantly. Late lunch? Early dinner? Who cares […]
Almost 10pm and my husband and I were feeling peckish. We’d only had a sandwich each from Le P’tit Normand hours ago, and our stomachs were demanding something more substantial. That’s when Black & White Burger came to mind – just a minute’s walk from our Aparthotel Adagio Brussels Grand Place, right next to Galet […]
Aux Merveilleux de Fred is this artisan French patisserie in Brussels that specialises in traditional Flemish meringue treats. They’ve got two spots in the city—one’s a pure takeaway patisserie, the other’s a tearoom where you can actually sit and enjoy your sweets with a proper coffee. Stumbling Upon Aux Merveilleux de Fred Grand Place I […]

Good hand tools turn those moments from background irritation into quick wins – not because you’re trying to cosplay a contractor, but because you want control, speed, and that calm feeling of “handled it”.
