Investment banker turned travel entrepreneur Victor Dizon is a co-founder of A2A Safaris, specialising in luxury African safaris. He spoke to Andrew Sun.

I grew up in the Philippines. My mother loved to cook and my parents loved to eat.

Growing up, we had a very diverse menu, from all kinds of Asian cuisine to Spanish. And we were lucky – my parents took us travelling all over the world from a young age, which is how I developed my love for travel and food.

I do like fancy Michelin-star restaurants in Paris or Tokyo, but I equally enjoy eating street food in Bangkok or Singapore.

In Hong Kong, one of my favourite lunch spots is Lei Garden (various locations including Shop 1003, 10/F, Times Square, 1 Matheson Street, Causeway Bay. Tel: 2506 3828). They have amazing dim sum and Cantonese roast meats – especially char siu and the roast pigeon.
