https://bcmagazine.smugmug.com/Bcene-photos/2018/Flavours-of-Ireland-Tiffanys-Bar-8-March-2018/i-RQJXCNT

Sláinte! The Hong Kong and Macau Irish Festival and Bar Talk Magazine hosted an evening of Irish Flavours on the 8 March at Tiffany’s New York bar in the Intercontinental Grand Stanford Hong Kong. Teeling supplied the Irish whiskey, as well as an informative talk on how to drink and enjoy whiskey, to complement Irish flavoured food and Bill Kong performed traditional and modern Irish tunes.

Joel Laird demonstrated how he hand-crafts his traditional his Sessile Oak Whiskey Tumbler which is toasted on the inside and shaped like a coopers barrel. The tumbler adopts the same methods used in the coopering and maturation process of whiskey making – where Oak barrels contribute to the colour, aroma and an oaky vanilla flavour to the contents.

Love is an Experience

Love is not a thing, it’s an experience. A shared experience!

The ongoing obsession with brand name things and the competitive who’s boyfriend or girlfriend buys them the most expensive flowers or gift is hardly romantic.

Ditch the pressure of the expensive restaurant, you can get the same meal or better far cheaper on a different day and do something that’ll create memories that’ll last longer than the taste of the $888 one mouthful dessert. Get out and have fun, create experiences and shared memories.

The Great European Carnival at Central Harbourfront offers the chance to share rides, enjoy the thrill and energy of the circus, play and win prizes for each other. The atmosphere of the carnival midway and the energy of all those around you having fun make it a great place to create memories.

Valentine’s Day package ($600) includes 2 Premium-seat tickets for the Great Circus of Europe, single entry to the AIA Great European Carnival on the same day and 20 e-tokens. The package is only available from 9-11 and 13-14 February 2018 at the door.
