Isles of plenty

Taiwan. Hong Kong. Singapore. Pint-sized powerhouses of the not-so-Far East, high rollers of the Asian economy, rivals to each other in more ways than one — a lot binds the three islands beyond geography and geopolitics. And we haven’t even talked about their complex, tenuous histories. Or their ridiculously superb food. All we’re saying is that we’ve visited (and happily revisited) these fabulous destinations because we think you ought to too. So go forth and taste the hidden pleasures of unexplored Taiwan. Walk the inner worlds of stunning, skyscrapered Hong Kong. And in been-there-done-that Singapore, discover an address cushier than the last one you broke the bank for.
