Gaucho restaurant: Argentinian Steak Restaurant in the UK

Image
 Gaucho is an Argentinian Steak restaurant in the UK. It opened its first one in 1994 with a vision to bring the best steak to the UK. We reserved our table through a third party so upon arrival, we were offered free sparkling wine. Then a platter of cuts were presented to us. We ordered 2 cuts half size. The steaks were very tender and juicy. About 50 pounds per person.

Trip report: Westin London City

Image
 During my trip to London, I stayed at 4 hotels, the best one is Westin London City. It's a pretty new hotel with decent room size. The breakfast has hot menu too along with good selections of fruits, cold cuts, smoked salmon and breads etc. Lounge is also open with glass bottled Spanish still water and sparkling water, coffee etc. It's accessable by your room key if you are a platinum member and up. During 5pm to 7pm, Canapes are offered.  The hotel is very accessible by London Underground. The tricky part is if you have luggage and don't want to haul your luggage through overpass stairs, you can access the hotel's north entrance from Huggin Hill.

Global Hotel Collection program offered by HSBC jade service

Image
 When booking travel through HSBC jade service, you will have access to the Global Hotel Collection program. The program offers good cancellation policy, room upgrade if available, daily free breakfast for two people and 50usd to 100 usd hotel credits per 2 night stay. Recently we used the program to book a stay at Shangri-La Sydney, Australia. Room view was fantastic. Dinning credit was used at its restaurant. The breakfast was great too. It's very similar to Amex FHR program in my opinion.
