One of my favorite places. No reservations though but great food and homey atmosphere.

London / Restaurant

The Thai food scene in London is in an incredible place right now, with the likes of The Smoking Goat, Som Saa, The Begging Bowl and Farang all offering an experimental and delicious take on the cuisine. I'm focusing on the later a) because it's my local and b) because it's helmed by Seb Holmes, who's also cheffed at those others mentioned, and has managed to bring the best of all of them to Farang. Oh and c) the Gai Prik is probably the tastiest dish in London

London / Bookstore

I trust owner and director Tamsin Clark completely with what I could and should be reading.

Leipzig / Cafe

Perfect for a quick coffee / juice / cake / lunch.

London / Architecture

Where 1984 of George Orwell got its inspiration from, the craziness of a real ministry of propaganda.

New York / Cafe

Nothing is more quintessentially New York than a diner. This eatery not only serves excellent, traditional diner fare, but does so in an eclectic environment that mixes Baroque decadence with Midtown grit.

Cape Town / Restaurant

A personal favourite as I created the branding Identity for this space, so I've spent many afternoons and evenings here whenever family visited me in Cape Town. Probably the best service in CT! The Shortmarket Club is an incredible fine dining restaurant tucked away at the top of a narrow staircase, in the centre of town. It has the feel of a closed members’ club. The space is equipt with classic New York style booths, romantic lighting, an open style kitchen and skilled waiters. The head Chef and owner, Wesley Randles prides himself on locally sources produce, he serves up dishes that tantalize and inspire. Every time. Their selection cocktails, AB Badenhorst wines and the Cape Malay octopus is a must!

Paris / Place

Old building of funeral parlour that became in 2008 the 104, a place dedicated to creation. Artists workshops, concerts, exhibitions, theater, bars, restaurants, bookshop and also Emmaüs…

San Francisco / Place

I fell in love with San Francisco at first site, the buildings and the light, so much grooviness to dig. The signature building style I call "Wonkatecture" -a kaleidoscopic hodgepodge of giddy pioneer freedom and gilded age excess. It's a modernists nightmare! A prime example is The Vedanta Society HQ, built in 1903 to house a religious sect which fostered a multifold path to God and reflected its openness architecturally. More more more.

New York / Attraction

You can't say you've seen NYC until you've seen it from a boat. Hop on the ferry from anywhere to anywhere and you'll see what I mean. Not only will you see excellent old buildings and factories--the inner workings of the old industrial city--but you'll head out under working bridges and see the skyscrapers in all their towering glory. And once you've done it, do it again, at night.

New York / Bookstore

Fav art bookstore in the city (and the world?). Great place for inspiration and reference art, both new and vintage finds. Not very cheap but mostly quite worth it.

Montreal / Restaurant

Yokato Yokabai font probablement les meilleurs ramens que j'ai goûté à Montréal depuis que j'en ai mangé au Japon. Attention de ne pas confondre ce resto avec leur autre restaurant, Ichigo Ichie, accessible à la même adresse. Ichigo Ichie est un Izakaya mais ils ne servent pas les ramens. Aussi, si vous souhaitez manger les ramens, vous ne pouvez pas réserver. C'est premier arrivé, premier servi. (Désolé, cette photo n'est pas la mienne; je n'ai pas l'habitude de photographier ce que je mange. Prise sur le site des Pages Jaunes.)
