Yoo Hoo! I’m not here today, I’m guest-posting at Chef’s Tales.
I am enjoying the wonderful hospitality of Michael Saxon, international chef, writer and blogger. Michael is the General Manager of the famous Eastern and Oriental hotel in Penang, Malaysia and his blog is a delicious mix of fabulous recipes and great stories about his extensive experience catering for celebrities and VIPs.
Inspired by this illustrious chef’s amusing account of a day by the pool at a 5 star resort (you must read ‘Just another day in Paradise’), I humbly offered my own ramblings on the subject. Michael kindly suggested, as his blog is a community for sharing experiences, opinions and recipes, that my post be published on his site. So to read about the colourful characters I found in a 5 star hotel in Tenerife, including lime-green speedo man and the breakfast buffet burglers, take a detour to Mum’s Gone to Tenerife . Let me know what sights have amazed you on holiday and whether you’re a people-watcher too.
Mike can also be found on Twitter so follow him at @chefstales for some mouth-watering inspiration.
Heading over there right now…!
Steve – Good man! I see you've commented over there too, thank you. Didn't know you had wobbly bits.
Have popped over there. Mich x
Michelle – thanks for taking the time to read my post over at Chef's Tales. I'm like you, haven't got the nerve to steal a whole lunch-worth of food from the breakfsat buffet.
Wandering over now…..
Cate – just seen your comment: thank you. Hope you enjoyed having a peek at the recipes while you were there.
I think I know "lime green Speedo Man"
Missy M – can you tell him to change his pants please? Much appreciated.
The chef's pool sounded like a Carry On film. Wished I was there!
MSG – his story, the farting at the swim-up bar particularly, is a joy to read. Glad you popped over there to have a nosey.
