If you are not familiar with Chez Trente and its legendary status among the live music scene in Hong Kong, you are missing out.

Chez Trente is a quaint, cool live music venue located in the middle of Peel Street, HK's premier bar street over the last few years, but there are no signs to guide you to Chez Trente, and if you don't know where it is, it's really hard to find. We chat with Chez Trente's founder, Joe Lung, on the origins of Chez Trente, how he came to rent an entire Star Ferry to run his music festival, and his very ambitious plans for this year's 3-day CT Music Festival on Cheung Chau from 21 to 23 Nov.

This week host Mohammed Magdi speaks with two of HK's most well-traveled couples. Cassi Thomas, founder of Chaotic HK Expats, and comedian Garron Chiu.

Garron and Cassi have been a couple for 11 years, and their traveling style has changed over time. They share some of their best tips, why "fighting before the trip" works better, and they share an extremely spicy story of some action they witnessed on the rooftop of an LA hotel.
