Used to Instant Lunch? Try Working for It - The Reward Tastes Better.
My husband and I recently embarked on the Tasty Asian Food
Hunt in London, The Talisman Treats, and let me tell you, it was a culinary caper worthy of Indiana
Jones….. If Indi had traded his whip for chopsticks, that is… Initially, deciphering the observational
clues felt like trying to complete a puzzle blindfolded, but once we got the hang of it, we were off and
running.
We couldn’t resist a couple of self-imposed pit stops at one, perhaps two (okay, maybe
three) delightful boozers along the route. After all, some questions required serious contemplation, and
what better place to ponder than the pub? These establishments provided the perfect environment to sit
down and think, or was it drink? Either way, they were integral to our treasure-hunting
strategy.
The food we (eventually) found was brilliant. We stumbled upon charming little spots we
might never have discovered otherwise, each offering a unique taste of the orient. While the challenges
could have been more demanding, it struck a balance that now has us eager to try another maze and
perhaps involve our kids in the next adventure. We’re eyeing the dessert-themed hunt for
them.
This experience treated us to an entertaining journey through a fantastic city but also
time to giggle, chat and just catch up properly. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a flavourful
fusion of fun and exploration. This is a great gift for couples or your other half seeking a twist on
the standard day date.
