Beers, beats and burgers at South Bay Beach Club HK
When summer time rolls around in Hong Kong the city can become quite a steamy dumpling. So there’s nothing better than getting a crew together on a Sunday afternoon and heading to the other side of the HK island to a little spot called South Bay Beach Club. It’s a cool little rooftop cafe/bar where Steve spins some nice cruisy summer beats, the BBQ’s fired up and plenty of cold beers and jugs of mojitos. The scenery is amazing looking out to sea with the beach full of people soaking up the western sun and a fan of boats off the beach. There’s no better way to recover from the night out before or just relax before the start of another busy week.

Tokyo Drift
I may not live in Tokyo anymore after Japan was sadly hit by a natural disaster early this year. But after relocating to Hong Kong it’s great to still be able to jump on a plane and be in Tokyo in 3.5 hours. While I was in Tokyo late last week and over the weekend I caught up with one of my best mates Ume for a few Umeshu’s and some great local food. He showed me a couple of new haunts around Azabu and a mate of his who works at the fish markets took as for a private tour around the markets riding on the back of a fork-lift. Ha! Good times!

Food for thought
This is an area of design I’ve never really thought of, but imagine if you got the opportunity to create your own candy bar. There’s quite a lot of elements that you’d have to consider to it. How big would it be? What ingredients would you use? What shape would it be? How would you package it? What would you name it? It’s an interesting thought and has got me thinking outside the box and an area I’d like to investigate more. Sorry if this has made you hungry.

Clocking off for the day
The days are faster and the nights even longer in Hong Kong. It’s not unusual to finish the average day until around 10pm. That’s what’s great about this city is the fact the city never sleeps so even when you have a late one working there’s still plenty of people out and plenty of restaurants open to eat. My head is swimming at the moment with four major projects on, so it’s nice to finish the day with a great Japanese dinner at SUSHI SASE which specialise in Kaiseki cuisine accompanied by a bottle of sake and a few Sapporos.

Morning Engergiser
Living in Hong Kong reminds me a lot of when I lived in New York. Everything is in walking distance or at worst a short CHEAP taxi fare away. I’m lucky that my apartment is so central in Hong Kong which means I’m spoilt for choice of restaurants, bars, clubs, shops and most of my friends all live in the same area, so it becomes like one big neighbourhood. Lately I’ve got in the habit every morning of going to my local juice bar (literally next door to my apartment block) to get a ‘Morning Energiser’ which is Orange, Apple, Carrot and Ginger while I check my daily emails.

Chad Muska Arrested For Graffiti
Pro Skateboarder Chad Muska was first detained by security at the Roosevelt Hotel around 2AM. Law enforcement sources tell us Muska was seen spray painting his name on a nearby Coffee Bean.
While security guards waited for LAPD officers to arrive — Muska demanded the guards let him go, and called them “ni**as” several times … including one instance in which he said, “Fu** all these ni**as right here.”
LAPD eventually showed up and arrested and booked Muska for felony vandalism — and our sources say Muska had tagging materials on him when he was arrested.
We got shots of Muska’s alleged handiwork at the coffee shop — “Muska”‘ — and also at Hollywood’s El Capitan Theater … “Muska kills.”
I’ve been a fan of Muska since I started skateboarding back in high school and since then watched him continue to become a brand himself. Including his work with Supra Footwear. After watching the video of his arrest, he looks completely wacked out and says some pretty inappropriate things to the security and paparazzi. Let’s hope this doesn’t have too big a back-lash on him. We don’t need a Mel Gibson of the skateboard world.
