(Im)patience is a virtue

  I'm sure you are all patiently waiting for me to drop another blog :) So here is my latest piece of fiction writing.  The prompts I had to work with were:  Fairy Tale / A fashion statement / An impatient person. With a 2500 word limit. So without further ado, please enjoy: Grace and the Magical Kingdom of Mystopia Synopsis When the Queen of Mystopia meets a mysterious end, a new queen must be crowned, Can Grace, a 13-year-old teenager still mourning the loss of her mother overcome her evil stepmother's plan and prevent the kingdom from falling into darkness?               And the winner is Gracey! She couldn’t believe it, she had dreamed of winning a competition, any competition, but now, here she was winning the long-running quest of Mystopia to crown its new queen. Taking the stage with an effortless grace, a quality she always jokingly connected to her name, she began to address her adoring audience: “Although I’m only 13, I promise to always do my best by Mystopia.” Human

Well, it certainly doesn't feel like it was 2 months ago I wrote my last blog, I hope you enjoyed my spooky story.  Although I lived in Hong Kong, I never actually reviewed my favourite restaurant there at the time (well, maybe second after Saizeriya), but after returning to HK for a short break and visiting it once again with some mainland friends, the time has finally come, to review: Smokehouse Bar & Grill Mong Kok, Hong Kong   Location and layout Located in the bustling Mong Kok district, Smokehouse sits atop Langham Place, on the 13th Floor, and despite being one of a large selection of eateries stands out as one of the best in this particular mall. The layout is generously spaced out, with the choice to sit along the balcony, or within the restaurant itself. With plenty of tables, I've never had a problem being seated, even when it's heaving on a weekend evening. Langham Place is a 3-minute walk from Mong Kok MTR, so the location and layout are both excellent! 5
