Me! Mucking about in the park on Mulackstraße, Berlin

Welcome, I’m Jenny, the person behind meltingbutter.com and here’s a little bit about me.

I’m Vietnamese/Australian by identity and have been fortunate enough to live in many great cities including Melbourne, London, Amsterdam and now New York. I LOVE to travel!

When I’m not travelling and exploring new cities, I’m obsessively researching and trying out the best hotspots NYC has to offer. I’m looking for hotspots that inspire me; ones that make me go “wow”, ones that I can’t wait to drag all of my friends to.

On meltingbutter.com, you’ll only find the coolest, most special, interesting and inspiring restaurants, cafes, bars, clubs, shops, galleries, museums, hotels and things to see and do.

WHO ARE “THE CURATORS”?

I’m so lucky in life to have surrounded myself with many interesting, creative and inspiring people from all over the world whose tastes I trust implicitly. They have untapped knowledge that all discerning travellers should have access to! You’ll notice some city guides from “The Curators” – they are by these people.

I’ve asked The Curators to dig deep into their cities and create city guides for Melting Butter readers that curate the coolest restaurants, shops, galleries and hotspots that can even take locals some digging to discover.

GET IN TOUCH

I’d love to hear from you if you have comments about my site, if you’d like to collaborate with me or even if you have a hotspot that you really want to tell me about! Email me at jenny@meltingbutter.com.

    Hi jenny, thank you again for your friend on foodbuzz, nice blog!!! Bye bye ,Monica.

  11. Love the blog Jenny and Michael. And am quite envious of your European foodie escapades! I miss the variety of cuisines and fresh food markets open every day! But I do love the opportunity to taste and use Asian (and yummy Vietnamese) flavours in Aussie cooking… Will keep checking back in. 🙂

  12. Hi Jenny and Michael. I saw your profile on foodbuzz. I really like your blog and the about page is great. Hope to see you around the blogging community. Kind regards.

  14. Wow! What a great site! I will return often. Great text, great photographs. It’s making me very hungry this cold morning here outside Boston, USA.

    Hi Jenny!

    Thanks so much for adding me on Foodbuzz and checking out my blog! I thought I’d pop by and check out yours – can I just say though, I read your profile on the About Me page and you are probably the hippest person ever. I worked at a media ad agency too, but I’m definitely not as well-travelled as you are! Keep up the great work on the blog – I’ll be back for sure! 🙂
