As the first year of Fly&Dine draws to a close, I’ll be looking back on the stories that turned Fly&Dine from a tiny blog into a growing monolith (and major hub of hyperbole). With only two weeks left in 2014, let’s take a look at the most popular story in Fly&Dine history: 7 Rules for…
You thought my Hong Kong coverage was over? NO WAY, SON. This is a Hong Kong flashback Fly&Dine-style. That photo up there? It’s an egg waffle (aka eggette or gai daan jai) at Lee Keung Kee. I had no idea what Lee Keung Kee was, but when I was trekking back and forth to that…
This doesn’t exactly fall under the food-focus of Fly&Dine, but as a public service I thought it would be worthwhile to share my experience of buying bespoke clothing on my recent trip to Hong Kong. In September, I traveled to Thailand for one of the best trips I’ve ever taken. I zoomed around the country…
Happy Easter Sunday to those celebrating! Have you had a good week? I have. Now that the bulk of my Hong Kong stories are done and posted (one more coming this week and then we’re totally done), I thought it would be a good idea to do a little wrap-up of all the stories I…
The closest most of us will ever get to a royal feast is the mighty hotel brunch. On Sundays across the globe, hotels set up massive displays of epicurean excess and all you have to do to partake is open your wallet. In Hong Kong, Sunday brunching is almost a required activity. In fact, it’s…

“Imagine this as your living room while you’re here.†That’s the direction I was given when I first laid eyes on the Club InterContinental overlooking Victoria Harbour (yes, I’m spelling it the British way. When in Rome Hong Kong…). After a few visits, I started getting angry that my actual living room wasn’t nearly as…
I’m in Hong Kong for a little over a week and I’m hunting down the best food this city has to offer. I’m already four days in and have been lucky enough to enjoy spectacular meals at Michelin-starred restaurants (Pierre, Lung King Heen, Caprice, Spoon by Alain Ducasse) and local favorites (Yat Lok, Crystal Jade…
On the grand scale of things that I love, room service breakfast is nestled right between free premium channel preview weekends (“Why yes, Showtime, I WILL binge watch Californication this weekend. Thank you very much.”) and pictures of puppies sleeping upside down (they look like they’re sleep-flying!). That is to say, I LOVE me some…
