Chamber of Deputies, Luxembourg. April 2016
Any time that I’m travelling and get to watch a changing of the guards, the guards themselves as well as the process are all quite fascinating and worth pictures (and even videos). On our trip to Luxembourg earlier this month, we were present at the Chambre des Députés (Chamber of Deputies), also known as “Krautmaart”, the unicameral national legislature of Luxembourg.

Ladurée located at 1er étage (first floor) et RDC Le Printemps De La Maison, 64 Boulevard Haussmann, 75009 Paris in France
While “shopping” at Galeries Lafayette (Le Printemps De La Maison) in Paris, France, I was on the lookout for sweet French pastries and macarons (because who am I kidding — I don’t shop for clothes at shopping malls; I merely shop for food!).
I wanted to try macarons from Ladurée as I knew they were the top macaron shop in France — highly praised and popular macarons — Continue reading
Délice House located at 92 rue de Provence, 75009 Paris in France
After a relatively fast and simple “snack” at the Louvre on our visit there, we arrived at Galeries Lafayatte for some shopping for the afternoon in Paris, France.

Diana’s Oyster Bar & Grill located at 7501 Woodbine Ave in Markham
I had the pleasure and privilege to be invited to the Grand Opening event of Diana’s Oyster Bar & Grill in Markham this past Saturday (their second location). This grand opening was actually scheduled to take place at the end of March when I received the e-mail invitation, but due to the Mayor of Markham also slated to be at the event, the event had to be moved two times to accommodate his schedule. I was so glad that this third time was the charm! Continue reading

At first look, this photo seems to be just a mirage of abstract colour and shapes. However, when you look closely (and this is achievable only if you have a zoom camera or you stand up on a high ladder), it is actually a painting on the ceiling. Continue reading
Pomme de Pain located at 16 Rue Berger in Paris, France
Our first meal and lunch in Paris, France was at Pomme de Pain. We chose this restaurant cafe since its display looked the best out of all the other sandwich shops that we saw along at the Forum des Halles shopping mall and their prices were fairly decent too. Continue reading
