TRAVEL+FOOD

Nestled in the historic heart of Mahón, Menorca’s understated gem, the Can Albertí 1740 Boutique Hotel, is preparing to reopen on 1st April 2025, marking the start of another season of refined luxury. With just 14 individually designed rooms, this elegant retreat combines historic charm and contemporary comfort, offering a tranquil escape for those who seek the authentic spirit of the island.

The hotel, housed in a salmon-pink 18th-century townhouse, has become something of an institution in Mahón—not only for its sophisticated interiors but also for its deep ties to arts and culture, regularly hosting exhibitions and events that draw both locals and international visitors. This year, its exceptional hospitality has been recognised with a Michelin Key, a rare distinction reserved for establishments that excel in guest experience, attention to detail, and a truly welcoming atmosphere.

*Can Albertí is featured in the prestigious Tatler 2025 101 Best Hotels Travel Guide.

Stay in Timeless Elegance

Cakes + Craft Phnom Penh

Expats may experience occasional cravings for comfort food from their home country. Cakes + Crafts will satisfy your taste buds, so stop searching. It brings back memories of Johnny Rockets, Fat Burger, Sonic Burger, Coney Island, In-and-Out Burger, and Smash Burger.

A motley crew of Khmericans and Cambodians owns and operates this cantina, which is infused with emerging artists and skateboard enthusiasts. Most of their ingredients and condiments, such as hot sauce, are obtained from local suppliers by the establishment. They also offer Heinz ketchup and French’s yellow mustard. The chicken is seasoned and battered using a family recipe to make it extra crispy (they use eggs). The hot dogs and smoked bacon are produced by local vendors instead of being processed, and the buns come from a resident baker who makes them in-house. The reason to visit are the home-cut fries alone. Your chili palate will be easily satisfied by homemade hot sauces. Their on-site mixologist easily creates a Long Island or a simple two-part cocktail. Chang Beer is available on draft (from Thailand), Cambodian beer is available in cans, and Jagermeister shots. Their Happy Hour and menu items are always changing, so be sure to check their websites for real-time amendments.

This place is a great place to visit due to its excellent service, trendy atmosphere, and delicious food. Generally speaking, the freshest foods tend to taste best when made on-site. Alternatively, you can order through Nahm24/Food Panda for delivery or use Grab Express for pickup.

Lastly, Cakes + Craft hosts birthday gatherings and viewing parties for UFC fights as well as soccer matches.

*Hours of operation: 11 am to 11 pm daily. Closed Tuesdays.

Hometown Hangout Phnom Penh

Hometown Hangout, established in 2017, is helmed by a dynamic duo: a French professor, Pierre, and Turkish hotelier, Tolga. Both understand the world of hospitality and the importance of communication. Combining an educational career with food and beverage is a home run.

Nestled in the heart of TTP, in close proximity to Kon Bar and Cakes & Craft, adorned with floor-to-ceiling glass, with an accessible staff in tow, they have some of the best beers on top. The group is composed of both Cambodians and expats. Each night has a distinct promotion. Be sure to check their Facebook for listings. Various days see live bands perform, with karaoke mixed in. What makes this place so different is the ambiance. It is in rugby red with black accent walls, coupled with wood tabletops and tufted benches. Despite the absence of food or a kitchen on-site, you can still order delivery.

Amenities include: a pool table, a foosball, a PlayStation gaming area, and a performance stage. With a state-of-the-art audio system, they play an array of eclectic music–afrobeats, EDM, rap, pop, and rock.

The icing on the cake is not only the accessible management but also the patrons. Moreover, if a dewy-eyed, 14-month-old Rottweiler, the bar’s mascot doesn’t make you melt, the overall patronage will.

If you’re searching for a memorable moment, check it out. You’ll be transported into a realm that will soon rival BKK and Bassac Lane.

*Be sure to ask for local Cambodian promoter Jono.

**This bar is located within walking distance to Zando, a beauty bar, local ABA branch, and a barbershop.

Myke Towers – Lyke Miike

Listen

Myke Towers surprises fans with a Christmas gift as he closes the year with his new album, LYKE MIIKE. The record and its visualizers are now available across all digital platforms and YouTube.

LYKE MIIKE marks Myke’s triumphant return to his rap and trap roots. Following the overwhelming success of his hits “LALA,” “LA FALDA,” and “ADIVINO,” Towers showcases his artistic evolution and versatility across 23 meticulously crafted tracks.

The record demonstrates why Towers is considered one of Latin music’s finest lyricists. Across 23 tracks, the artist showcases his masterful command of narrative and rhyme, tackling both intimate and universal storylines.

On “CON ÉL,” a seductive blend of trap, rap, and R&B, he narrates a love triangle from an unconventional perspective, while “LOS DEPURO” celebrates success through an innovative and hypnotizing fusion of cumbia RKT and reggaeton. The hard-hitting “VAN CLEEF” explores sensuality with provocative lyrics, and “YO ESTARÉ,” with its cinematic atmosphere and industrial soundscape, pushes Latin rap boundaries while addressing themes of loyalty and commitment.

LYKE MIIKE brings together some of Latin America’s finest talents, from Puerto Rican heavyweights Miky Woodz, Eladio Carrión, Clarent, Pressure 9×19, and Jon-Z to Venezuelan rap titans Akapellah and Neutro Shorty.

The album arrived accompanied by 23 visualizers, all filmed in Towers’ hometown of Quintana, San Juan, Puerto Rico. @bstatic masterfully captured the striking visual content during an intensive two-day shoot. The Puerto Rican director created a rich visual narrative that pays tribute to Towers’ origins through exquisite production.

LYKE MIIKE is Myke Towers’ third album release of 2024. The rap powerhouse dropped LA PANTERA NEGRA in August, followed by its Deluxe version in October. The latter spawned “DEGENERE,” featuring Benny Blanco, which has dominated charts across the United States, Spain, and Latin America.

Before this year-end release, Towers received a gold certification for LA PANTERA NEGRA and an eleventh platinum certification for “LA FALDA” from the RIAA.

Towers ends 2024 as the #1 artist on U.S. and Canadian Tropical radio charts and ranks #2 on the Spanish Contemporary chart, according to Mediabase. The company reports that “LALA” and “LA FALDA” dominated Spanish Contemporary and Tropical charts. “LALA” secured the #2 spot on both charts, while “LA FALDA” reached #4 on Spanish Contemporary and #3 on Tropical.

VYBZ KARTEL RECLAIMS HIS THRONE

AFTER 13 YEARS IN JAMAICAN PRISON – EARNING HIS FIRST GRAMMY NOMINATION, LAUNCHING HIS OWN STR8 VYBZ RUM BRAND + HEADLINING HIS FIRST CONCERT IN OVER A DECADE ON NYE [TICKETS HERE]

10th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of his Pivotal Album
Viking (Vybz Is King) Slated for Jan 2025

Vybz Kartel’s unwavering presence in Jamaican dancehall for over two decades has cemented him as one of the island’s most influential artists of all time. Even after receiving a life sentence in jail, Kartel – born Adidja Azim Palmer – has remained one of if not the most relevant figures of the genre, delivering verses from his prison cell. Some of dancehall’s biggest stars today like Spice, Popcaan and Shenseea can all credit the icon for helping put them on the map, and Cardi B, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Mick Jagger, JAY-Z and Drake are just a few of the musical icons outside of his home country of Jamaica that have professed their love and respect for his music.

The unstoppable lyricist out of Portmore, Jamaica has risen to new heights this year. He was freed from prison on July 31, 2024 when his case was overturned by the courts after serving 13 years in Jamaica. In the short time since his release, Kartel aka the Worl’ Boss earned his first GRAMMY nomination in the Best Reggae album category for his EP Party With Me, launched a new rum line, STR8 VYBZ, and will make a monumental return to the stage with his highly anticipated Freedom Street concert on December 31, 2024, at the National Stadium in Kingston, Jamaica. To top off the new year, Kartel will drop a deluxe 10th anniversary album for his seminal Viking (Vybz Is King).

FREEDOM STREET CONCERT

The Freedom Street concert will be Kartel’s first performance since he stepped back into the world, and fans can expect an epic New Year’s Eve celebration featuring a star-studded lineup, including Spice, Popcaan, Skillibeng, Tommy Lee, Chronic Law, Shawn Storm, Lisa Hyper, Sheba, Gaza Indy, Kartel’s sons Likkle Vybz and Likkle Addi and many other surprise guests. Produced by Downsound Entertainment — the team behind Jamaica’s largest annual music festival, Sumfest—the concert is poised to be a historic moment for Kartel and his loyal fans. With multiple price tiers to suit all fans, tickets for Freedom Street are available at retail outlets across Jamaica and online http://freedomstreetlive.com.

STR8 VYBZ RUM BRAND

In addition to the concert, Kartel has launched a new rum line, STR8 VYBZ, in partnership with TJ Records and The House of Angostura Bitters, signaling a new chapter in his entrepreneurial journey. The rum portfolio consists of four new bold flavors of white overproof, spiced, white and dark rum, each labeled Fever, Ramping Shop, Electric, and Unstoppable, respectively. “STR8 VYBZ is more than just a rum; it’s a movement. Each bottle embodies the energy and passion of my music, and the spirit of the culture I represent,” declares Vybz Kartel. STR8 VYBZ is produced and bottled by Angostura Distillers in Trinidad and Tobago, distributed exclusively by Caribbean Producers Jamaica Ltd. (CPJ). Select retailers in the U.S., England, Bahamas, Guyana, St. Lucia, Barbados, Jamaica, and Grenada will sell STR8 VYBZ.

NEW MUSIC + FIRST TIME GRAMMY NOMINATION

Vybz Kartel’s ability to consistently churn out hit songs and albums over the past two decades, despite his extraordinary circumstances, is unparalleled. This year alone, he has released a number of singles like “Comet,” “White Rum,” and “Cloudy” and major projects, including his First Week Out album (Jul 31, 21st Hapilos Compilations), and his EP Party With Me (May 31, Adidjahiem Records). The latter, which was released while he was still incarcerated, earned Kartel his first GRAMMY nomination for Best Reggae Album. Despite uncertainty about his future, he manifested the commanding title with 8 party anthems that firmly establish that Vybz Kartel is finally outside. In January 2025, Vybz Kartel will drop a deluxe 10th anniversary edition of his pivotal albumViking (Vybz Is King), which spawned hits like “Unstoppable,” “Gon Get Better” (sampled by pop group Fifth Harmony), “Dancehall,” and “Enchanting.” Fans can anticipate a few new bonus tracks with this re-release as well.

VYBZ KARTEL’S ICONIC CATALOG

Digging further into the archives and his extensive catalog, many of Vybz Kartel’s hit songs are staples of dancehall culture and mainstream popular music. Tracks like “Romping Shop” with Spice (Queen of the Stage) reached at #76 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in August 2009, while “Fever” surged to #23 on the Rap Airplay chart in August 2017. The stamp of pure Jamaican authenticity that Vybz Kartel provides to his collaborators has opened up doors for dancehall’s integration into some of pop music’s biggest songs. He was a featured guest on Major Lazer’s “Pon Di Floor” in 2009, which was sampled for Beyoncé’s “Run the World (Girls).” In 2005, Vybz Kartel landed guest spots on the Grammy-nominated Red Star Sounds Presents: Def Jamaica. The Worl’ Boss also created a musical tribute to “Clarks” footwear that has helped propel the British heritage shoe company into a fashion staple for a young generation.

The story of Jamaica’s enduring global influence is inextricably linked to one of its greatest exports — music. And among the many artists who have shaped its legacy, Vybz Kartel stands as a living legend, embodying the indomitable spirit that defines the island.
