I
went to Seremban and visited Choy Kee Food Stall because I have read
some raving reviews on it on various websites. However, I found out
that the food there is only average and the food prices are very
expensive. The place is not an aircon restaurant. There is definite
no "value for money" in spite of what the various websites say.

Somehow, barcelon is a good place to have seafood.

Stay away form Trattoria del Ponte Vecchio in Florence. The owner
lures you in with a decent menu and then says it is not available.

If you're a wine aficionado and are vacationing on the island of
oahu, for a wide selection of fine wines & spirits, for the absolute
best values in town - you MUST check out TAMURA's in Waialae.
Hawaiian music is always playing, and the sales assistants are
helpful, knowledgeable, and probably as passionate about wine as you
are.

meals. A great night for a family outing when visiting Sydney.

When in Barcelona, be sure to try oysters and Cava, the Spanish
national champagne. The oysters are delicious and relatively cheap
in this part of the world and Cava goes so well with them. Many
restaurants have dedicated oyster bars. A feast for a king at a
price to suit a pauper! Yummy!

New Orleans, LA - a place to eat.
About twenty minutes from the French quarter (and, about a twenty
dollar cab ride - but soooo worth it) is a place called Jacqueimo's.
From the outside, it looks a bit like a dive. But once your name is
called, you are led through the bar, through the kitchen
(literally), and into one of three dining areas. Each has it's own
eclectic design, all paying homage to different areas of New
Orleans.
Best appetizers in the world! The Alligator Sausage Cheesecake is to
die for! Amazing menu. Great wine list. Fun atmosphere - the chef
walks around in a white chef's hat and coat and funky shorts.
Tip: This is definitely a "locals" spot. Lose the camera and fanny
pack. Dress casually. Try not to look too shocked when you walk
straight through the kitchen to get to your table. Just relax and
enjoy it!
- Brenda Corbett, USA
I find that Chinatown is a very good place for eating. It has all

"Gerstner" one of Vienna's best .

Try the pumpkin soup or onion soup at Oriental Hotel outdoor
restaurant down by the river in Bangkok. Delicious and not
expensive. Together with the drink you get some unusual but very
tasty nuts in brown shells. Included in this memorable dinner are
four excellent servants. Do feel as a VIP for a couple of hours
without spending too much money. Just a warning: do not order wine,
which is very expensive and unnecessary when you can have a fresh
cool bottle of Singha Beer.
- Anita Hagelin, Sweden
In the Swiss town of Rougemont during Easter weekend, there is a
giant Easter Egg Festival. It will not be giant in the quantity of
eggs offered, but in the size of the eggs. It is advertised that
there will be 20 giant eggs waiting to leap out at unsuspecting
children!

Barcelona is a fabulous city break destination but many first time
visitors don't venture far enough from the Ramblas. To find great
food and shopping try the developing University area off the Ramblas
(along Calle Bon Success, on the left going towards Plaza
Catallunya). You'll find quiet pavement cafes away from the traffic,
great restaurants (including vegetarian options) and fabby designer
boutiques. Great thing is, the cafes are very reasonably priced
(it's a student quarter) and the area is very hip and happening.
However, when strolling along the Ramblas check out Amaya (on the
left going towards the port) - it looks like a bar from the outside
but at the back is a restaurant where they serve fantastic food and
wine - and it's not expensive. The service is very friendly. For
snacks on the run you can't beat the Basque restaurants in the Bario
Gotico where they serve pinchos at the bar: slices of crusty bread
topped with a variety of fillings - delicious.
- Nadine Kazerounian, UK
Instead of having sugar filled selections in the mini bars perhaps
some local fresh fruit and information as where to buy it would be
great. Often, when holidaying, people are already eating high fat
and high sugar diets. Australia has such a high standard of fresh
produce, it seems such a shame to only have nuts, chocolate or chips
available.

If you like to taste the finest beers outside Chechoslovakia, go no
further than the Hofbrauhaus or the Mataser Lowenbraukeller pubs in
Munich with their local Blasmusik. Visit the lakes and mountains in
the south , Starnberger and Tegensee. Over the last 48 years, I have
enjoyed so many holidays in the area.

Most large city department stores in Europe have decent restaurants.
The food is usually good and reasonably priced - also a great place
to just be part of the local crowd.

Eat at the Summit Restaurant in Sydney's George Street, on the 47th
floor of Australia Square. It is a chic revolving restaurant with
views of Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House. Eat there as
the sun goes down over the City, the view is breathtaking. The food
is first class and the service impeccable, the ultimate dining
experience.
- Lyn, UK
La Parisien Geelong, great food, excellent service, extensive wine

I lived in Florence, Italy for four months and enjoyed eating at
some of the many wonderful restaurants there. I found that the most
authentic and un-touristy places were located in Oltrarno; the
district opposite the Arno from the center of Florence. They have
better prices and higher quality. Ristorante di Cambi was one of my
favorite rustic Italian family style restaruants serving the best
Bisteca alla Fiorentina in town and an impressive wine list. Osteria
Santo Spirito, located in Piazza Santo Spirito was another favorite.
It is a small and very hip restaurant.

If you are in Perth, you must try the white crabs sold in
restaurants there. This crab is bigger than the size of two fists
and its flesh is so tender and sweet.

Our favourite restaurant in Bologna is Al Montegrappa da Nello, Via
Monet Grappa 2. The reataurant has 3 seating areas: outdoor, main
floor and downstairs. We choose a main floor double table near the
glassed-off salad and dessert preparation area. The food was superb
with a good variety of selections. We were there twice in three days
(it was so good) and met Australian and Dutch customers who equally
loved the food and the ambience.
- Stuart Conger, Canada
A visit to Bologna is simply incomplete without dining at this
restaurant named "INDIA". Located at Via N.Sauro, it serves mouth
watering delicacies from the Indian sub-continient. The curries are
simply awesome and the ambience gives the traveller a true sense of
Indian culture, which is so vibrant! Though I come from India
myself, and have travelled extensively around the globe.... but must
tell you this is one of the finest places for Indian food!
- Chandan U. Tahiliani, India
Expensive meals inside Tioman Island? I found a place with Malaysian
meals (they’re called mamak stalls), with rice, chicken, etc. A
clean small stall. Just walk further down the resort, at the far end
where you see some low cost apartments after you’ve past the ponies
farm, on the right hand side after the guard house gate. If you
intend to stay long, why not opt for a cheaper meal?
