Welcome to colonial British meets Shanghai. 

This two stores establishment sets a tone of classic romanticism in a modern setting. 

Long story short, I fell in love with the place.

Coffee… What can I say? 

I'm in a little piece of paradise with a wonderful selection of local coffee. The ambience is raw, clean and a little playful. Its raw in terms of the use of material. Feels like they intentionally put together furniture they found at a recycling center together with pieces that they have tailor made for the cafe.

Rock Bar at the Ayana Resort in Bali must have been one of the most breath taking bars I've been too. It's situated on a rock at sea, with beautiful views of the setting sun and delicious cocktails. 

A place where hip meets history. Located within the square of Kota Tua, this place stands out among its peers. It's more than 200 years-old and still standing strong. The building itself is from the Dutch colonial era and its Dutch traits is still very much present in its architecture. 

I love and adore this place. Ocha & Bella is an Italian restaurant located on the ground floor of Morrissey Hotel. As it is the hotel itself feels like a modern day Bauhaus interpretation, this restaurant is no better. The use of raw materials, keeping it simple with a few coloured furniture is just some of the charms of this restaurant.
