A traveler’s guide to the best Egg Tart in Hong Kong

We spent our summer holidays in Hong-Kong. And needless to say as is the norm, we planned our trip entirely from Instagram recommendations. About a month before we travelled we searched for and bookmarked a few reels and posts about things to do, places to visit and foods to eat. Following that we received a barrage of posts full of recommendations for Hong-Kong. I guess that is the norm these days. But what stood out and soon became a mission was Egg-Tart in Hong Kong. I had to find the best one.

Hong Kong is a city where food is both an art and a tradition, and no culinary experience is complete without indulging in the iconic egg tart. From buttery shortcrust to flaky puff pastry versions, these golden delights are so irresistible that people willingly queue up for hours to taste the best. Here’s my guide to the top spots for egg tart in Hong Kong that I was able to taste and recommend.

Traveling with milk allergy – food tips & ideas

Here are 3 photos of my son Tasmai (babyT) on our annual ritual of a family holiday in Goa, India. He’s aged 9.5 months, 19 months and 34 months here. We (as do many people) have to do at least one trip to Goa each year and we are glad that babyT has joined in our fun too. When I look at this collage of pics from the 3 holidays however, I realize  how it is becoming increasingly complex to manage his food allergies (milk) and take care of his meals. Traveling with milk allergy is not easy but we did it and very well too.

Traveling with milk allergies can be a daunting task. This year our holiday showed us that it will be difficult for our child to travel and eat comfortably like normal people do, but it is still not impossible to find the right alternatives and have a good time. This prompted me to write this blog post so as to help others find support and help.

Travelling babies – when Wanderlust bites the young

Years ago my husband and I were lazing on a fairly secluded beach in South Goa. There we witnessed a sight, which we quickly made up our minds for, was to be our parenting mantra for the future. We saw a little boy who belonged to parents from Europe. It was actually a group of some 3 families who were travelling with babies. He was dressed in nothing but plain white underwear and was frolicking freely on the beach, playing, falling, running on the sand. His parents sipped their drinks under the shade of the beach resort’s cafe. The child was living his life. He must not have been more than a year and half. He could barely walk. But he was out there, living the touristy life. And we wanted it too. We wanted to give our future child that carefree life.

6 ideas to make car trips fun for toddlers

Thinking of investing in a new vehicle for you and your kids to regularly have fun day trips?

Blame Mumbai’s roads which seem to be undergoing an overhaul and maintenance all throughout the year or the ambitious interconnected Metro project, living in this city has become an absolute nightmare.

No wait, let me correct that, travelling in Mumbai has. Or even better, add a baby or restless toddler to that car and you, rather than the kids will ask “Are we there yet?” I now dread any sort of car trips with my toddler. That’s when I asked myself wouldn’t anyone be frustrated, irritated and plain simple mad if they were stuck in traffic jams at any point of time of the day, not just rush hour. Yes I can happily Instagram my time away but what about my child? What was needed was some super simple fun to make car trips bearable again. And ta-da!! here are some ideas to do just that. Luckily, our car is quite spacious (we bought an SUV from https://vegasusedcars.com/used-suvs-las-vegas/), I can’t even imagine what life would be like if I had a smaller car.
