I'm in London again, and my good friend Didit came in for the weekend from Paris, so its been a pretty hectic couple of days from the time we landed at Heathrow on Thursday. Saturday, we had dinner reservations at Les Trois Garcons in Shoreditch. It is by far one of the cutest places I've been too. A cross between Freemans in nyc and an old english pub, its any wonder how the decor manages to be a mix of pure french antique opulance(vintage purses hanging from the ceiling, glass chandeliers and candles lit all around) while still making sense... With a dreamlike ambience and a service to boot(waiters always happy just a step away), its no wonder this restaurant has been serving up their dishes since they opened in 2000(one of the three owners is a Malaysian born, if I do say so myself :) And once you're done with the amazing dinner, be sure to scurry on over to Lovers Lounge which is just around the corner, also headed by the same trio. Its glass loft like ambience is definitely worth checking out.

Finally... an event in KL that is worthy of our time. The logo is somewhat reminiscent of Design Miami 2008(big dissapointment in that department for sure) but whatever... I guess its a start. Too bad I won't be here, but hopefully it takes off with minor glitches and returns next year for another round, bigger and with a better logo!

I just picked this up a couple of days ago. One of my favorite designers Matthew Williamson, makes the cover/issue of Elle Decor UK. However, this is a January issue but pretty much everything in Malaysia is a little delayed.... If you haven't already picked this up, you should.
