A great meal or restaurant experience can evoke memories of a wonderful holiday long after you return home. The tastes and textures of exotic ingredients<\/a><\/strong> and the heady aromas of dazzling dishes come flooding back. They also bring with them the joys of discovery and other cultures. Let\u2019s face it, isn\u2019t that one of the main reasons that we travel? Easter may be a Christian holiday<\/a> <\/strong>celebrated the world over, but April is also a time when many countries across Asia celebrate the start of a New Year. Many international schools also close for a week or two, making this a great time to book a villa holiday. Looking to celebrate Easter in Asia<\/a><\/strong>? We have an entire bag full of ideas for you.<\/p>\n

As you consider your Easter holiday options, the warm tropical climate of places like Thailand, Indonesia, India and Japan appeals to the opportunity to relax and recharge. Embrace the comfort and privacy of a luxury villa, where your staff is ready to welcome you with genuine warmth and hospitality. Book your April holiday now. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Thailand<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re looking at Thailand<\/strong>, you might be surprised to find that many upscale hotels in popular destinations<\/strong><\/a> such as Phuket and Koh Samui celebrate the Easter weekend<\/strong><\/a> in a big way. They offer lavish international buffets with entertainment and easter-egg hunts for the young ones.<\/p>\n

April in Thailand also means plenty of excitement and anticipation as the Thais celebrate their favourite festival<\/a><\/strong> of the year, Songkran<\/em> or Thai New Year. During the three-day festivities, Thailand\u2019s national culinary treasures such as Pad Thai<\/em> as well as that gloriously hot and spicy Tom Yum<\/em> Soup and magical dessert combination of Mango Sticky Rice are popular favourites.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re staying in a villa, your chef will proudly prepare \u2018the very best Pad Thai<\/em>\u2019 you\u2019ve ever tasted. Thin or wide noodles, crunchy beansprouts, onions, and eggs are stir-fried to perfection in a searing hot wok and served with condiments such as fish sauce, dried shrimp, shallots, and red chilli for the essential flavours. Just add chicken, pork or prawns and a squeeze of fresh Thai lime for the most delicious dish in the Thai culinary lexicon.<\/p>\n

And what better to toast the Thai New Year than a \u2018Thai Margarita\u2019? This famous cocktail is laced with spicy ginger, herby lemongrass, and Thai basil. As they say in Thai \u2018Sawasdee pee ma\u00ef<\/em>,\u2019 or Happy New Year!<\/p>\n

\"Thailand<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Indonesia<\/h2>\n

Easter in Asia can also be fun if you head to Bali<\/strong>. This famous Hindu island paradise also gets into the Easter spirit. Upscale resorts<\/a> <\/strong>from Nusa Dua to Seminyak host bounteous buffets<\/strong><\/a> with western and Indonesian delicacies. They promise hours of dining and entertainment for the whole family. Your kids can also look forward to egg decorating workshops and Easter egg hunts.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, go local and discover the renowned festive feast, the Indonesian Rijsttafel<\/em>. If you\u2019ve opted for a private villa vacation in Bali or its quieter neighbour Lombok<\/strong>, now would be as good a time as any to test the culinary expertise of your private chef and celebrate your Easter vacation with one of the most fantastic food experiences to be found in Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n

Served family-style around a large basket of steamed rice, aromatic delicacies such as Sambel be Ikan<\/em> – seafood salad with lemongrass; Satay<\/em>; Be Sampi Mebase<\/em> – Balinese beef rendang<\/em>, and Kambing Mekuah<\/em> – lamb stew with cardamom. Sweets such as Dadar Guling<\/em> – rolled coconut pancakes create memories to last a lifetime.<\/p>\n

\"Bali<\/p>\n

India<\/h2>\n

Talking about food<\/a><\/strong>, topping any list is India<\/strong>. In various parts of the country, Christian communities traditionally celebrate the end of Lent with sumptuous family feasts of pork, mutton and chicken which can take days to prepare.<\/p>\n

Today, local Indians are likely to book a table<\/a><\/strong> at one of the smart hotels in the main cities and towns, where lavish Easter buffets with Easter Egg Hunts offer festive dining out on a grand scale.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, traditions vary in different regions. Goa comes alive during Easter time and you can club church visits with delicious food. In Mumbai, it\u2019s customary to eat an elaborate roast pig, or pork sorpotel<\/em>, an old delicacy. Further south in Kerala, regional variations offer so much choice whether it’s chicken or mutton mappas<\/em> with palappam<\/em> or ularthiyathu<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Indians, meanwhile, are extremely proud of their home cooking and no less so around Easter time. If you are staying at an elite haven in south-west India, take advantage of your chef\u2019s home-cooked curries and other specialities. You can be certain they will be some of the tastiest you will eat during your stay in India<\/a><\/strong>. Perhaps take off to the market with the chef? See for yourself some of the exotic ingredients of Indian cuisine. It\u2019s a cultural revelation and a special souvenir to take home from the sub-continent.<\/p>\n

\"Indian<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Japan<\/h2>\n

As they say: \u201cApril is Amazing in Japan<\/strong>\u201d. Although it is still cool around Easter time, this is a wonderful time to visit<\/a><\/strong>. The country bursts into colour as the cherry blossoms bloom and the mood and spirit are one of joy and hope. Why not think about a holiday in Japan this April?<\/p>\n

Besides the stunning cherry blossom, Japan is a great April destination. Though Easter is not a religious holiday there, its symbols such as bunnies and eggs have made their way into local culture. Special events<\/a><\/strong> and celebrations aimed at visitors include hotel buffets<\/a><\/strong> and more. You\u2019ll feel right at home.<\/p>\n
