foodie break: whitman & bloom
Hey, guess what? It’s freaking freezing. Oh, you didn’t hear? Turn on any news station and they’ll tell you alllll about it. If you’re like moi, you probably care less about how cold it is and more about where you can hide out until it’s over. My recommendation? New York City’s Whitman & Bloom. The James Joyce inspired restaurant brightens up an otherwise boring block on 3rd Avenue in Murray Hill, luring in the passerbys with its warm lighting and hip, but unpretentious vibe.

Aaaand, cue the inevitable case of panic that every good hostess experiences. It was time to plan an Upper East Side dinner fit for a…

foodie break: @FSSingapore
When you only have 48 hours in a city, it can be overwhelming. As soon as we arrived in Singapore, we were faced with many important questions. Mainly: where do we go, what do we do, and most importantly, what-oh-WHAT do we eat?? Because we successfully stuffed ourselves silly with dumplings in Chinatown on day one, by day two, we were ready to class things up a bit. Four Seasons Singapore to the rescue. To be honest, I wasn’t exactly sure of what to expect of Singapore in general. The hubs’s school has a campus in the city which makes…
