Malaysia Culinary Tour featured in major newspapers

Billy — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 00:39:50 +0000

Have you had a chance to grab a copy of Sunday Telegraph or Herald Sun yesterday? You might have noticed there is a wonderful article by travel photographer and writer Ewen Bell, about my 9-Day Culinary Tour in Malaysia. That article surely got me salivate just by reading it, and yes, “Durian Cheesecake”, I can [...]

Join Masterchef’s Billy Law on an exclusive 9-day Culinary Tour in Malaysia – he will share his personal journey in food, love and family in the country where he grew up.

Taste of Barossa Valley – South Australia

Billy — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 21:44:10 +0000

Where it all began. First time I visited Barossa Valley was probably 10 years ago. I wasn’t much of a wine drinker back then, even now I still consider myself a moderate alchohol drinker, I am a quality over quantity sort of guy. So my knowledge about wine is still not as in depth comparing [...]

The ‘Red’ Centre. My Jacob’s Creek wine tour continues. After an educational day in Adelaide Hills filled with fine wine and artisan cheeses and chocolates, it is time for me to explore another wine region in South Australia. This time I am heading down south, a long 4-hour journey to Australia’s finest ‘Red’ center. Well, [...]

Amazing Hunter Valley Race – Hunter Valley region, NSW

Billy — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 21:29:23 +0000

Race through the vines. With living only an hour and a half from the lower Hunter Valley, I should have no reason not to visit this wine region more often. But you know what they say, you don’t normally visit your own backyard as there’s always another opportunity, and that opportunity finally happened. An invitation [...]

Taste of Adelaide Hills – South Australia

Billy — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 12:05:00 +0000

Since my last trip to South Australia for aTasting Australia event, I have fallen in love with this city and what it has to offer food-wise. I’ve come to the conclusion that Adelaide is a city where food is a labor of love, and they are very proud of it too. I am not kidding, [...]

Wolgan Valley Resort & Spa – Blue Mountains, NSW

Billy — Sun, 21 Aug 2011 21:06:18 +0000

It is a leisurely 2-hour drive from the (Central) coast to the (Blue) mountains, but our final destination is still about another hour away in the midst of the valley. We follow the windy steep hill through ‘The Gap’ down to the valley floor, the scenery changes dramatically to gravel road and native bushland with [...]

Christmas in July – Portland, NSW

Billy — Thu, 11 Aug 2011 21:00:31 +0000

A jolly winter solstice celebration. I love Christmas, any excuse for me to throw another turkey or leg ham on the table really; soon we found ourselves quickly adapted to the idea of having Christmas during winter months every year. Last year we had a get together here at ATFT’s HQ and gorged ourselves stupid [...]

Postcard from Malaysia – IPOH

Billy — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 23:56:18 +0000

When in Ipoh, eat, eat, eat! I have lived by that motto for nineteen years, and I still do whenever I go back to Ipoh, that’s my hometown where I was born and grew up in Malaysia. Ipoh (ee-poh) is approximately 200km north of Kuala Lumpur, not much of a tourist destination I must [...]

Boulcott Street Bistro & Winebar – Wellington, NZ

Billy — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 12:22:01 +0000

After tasting WLG pop-up restaurant in Kings Cross and also our little trip New Zealand for Wellington On a Plate festival two months ago, I have to say I am still reminiscing all the good time we’ve had, eating our way through every corners in the Wellington city. I couldn’t be happier to have Peter [...]
