We are each technically 'available'! I widowed once; and divorced once. He's never been married! He's the ultimate James Bond! Vancouver version)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">In fact, its been a few years since I have seen Ken Wai, the founder of Lumière and backer of celebrity chef Rob Feenie so fun that the gala gave</span> 太太 <span style="font-family:arial;">the opportunity to see ol' friends like</span> 太太<span style="font-family:arial;"> Carlotta Lee, Stephanie Dong and Judy Cheng. The new Shangri-La Hotel in Vancouver is stunning and kudos to developers Ian Gillespie and Ben Yeung for putting together a spectacular development and raising the bar in the city.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">A couple of months ago</span> 太太 <span style="font-family:arial;">had dinner scheduled at the Lobster Bar at the Shangri-La in Hong Kong and now to be able to savour </span><span style="font-family:arial;">the Black Truffles pizza at Jean-George's Market at the new Shangri-La in Vancouver is divine. When media mogul Moses Znaimner was in town recently, </span>太太 <span style="font-family:arial;">walked him through the new hotel in Vancouver and he was suitably impressed. There is going to be a Shangri-La Hotel in Toronto which is presently under construction.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">By the way, the penthouse where this photo was taken is for sale so if you have a spare $5 million (Cdn), please <a href="mailto:HelloTaiTai@gmail.com">contact me</a>. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">That's it for now. Next month I'll be in San Francisco and the following month in Barbados. More to come...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2OepuPfEy1c/SfDF-QtA0cI/AAAAAAAAAUM/L9bi5T0fKXk/s1600-h/Hello.gif"><br /></a></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8366083923702981204-5917347822570540960?l=globalcitizen-hkg.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>太太 Tai Tainoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8366083923702981204.post-41501870231656011802009-04-09T11:34:00.000-07:002009-04-09T11:50:46.970-07:00<p><a href="http://www.geocities.com/vcr_taitai/bcbiz_andreaeng2008_article.pdf"><img src="http://www.presidiopenthouse.com/realestatefundmanager/ae_bcbusiness2008cover.jpg" width="207" border="0" height="286" /></a></p> <p><span style=";font-family:Helvetica;font-size:85%;" >Double-click the above to read the article</span></p><p style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:180%;">太太 </span><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">'s Previous Posts</span></span> </p><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.hellotaitai.com/"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 140px; height: 20px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2OepuPfEy1c/Sd5Cnj40zHI/AAAAAAAAASc/65bVrGkcr1s/s320/Hello.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322765057014418546" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><ul id="recently" style="font-family:arial;"><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://andreaeng.blogspot.com/2006/08/shek-o-is-hong-kongs-tycoon-village.html">Shek-O is Hong Kong's 'Tycoon Village'</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://andreaeng.blogspot.com/2006/08/pavilions-on-queens-quay-in-downtown.html">Pavilions on Queen's Quay in Downtown Toronto</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://andreaeng.blogspot.com/2006/08/filminute.html">Filminute</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://andreaeng.blogspot.com/2006/08/moses-znaimner.html">Moses Znaimner</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://andreaeng.blogspot.com/2006/08/superstar-ian-gillespie-westbank.html">Superstar - Ian Gillespie - Westbank</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://andreaeng.blogspot.com/2006/08/bc-business-august-2006.html">BC Business - August 2006</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.andreaeng.com">Andrea</a><br /></span></li></ul><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8366083923702981204-4150187023165601180?l=globalcitizen-hkg.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>太太 Tai Tainoreply@blogger.com0
