Tian Tian Dao 天天到湖南小碗菜 became our next target after our amazing experience at Pin Wan Wan’s small bowl concept. We were so impressed by that format that hunting down another similar spot became our mission. What made this place stand out? Their speciality in Hunan cuisine – something hubby and I barely knew anything about. Located […]
Siblings Gelato became a highlight of our rainy afternoon in Johor Bahru. What began as a quick stop to escape the downpour turned into one of the most memorable gelato experiences I’ve had this year.

ROPUDON 肉山の霸丼 at Permas City, Johor Bahru first came on my radar through RedNote posts flaunting their drool-worthy donburi bowls. I’ll admit, I was completely hooked by those pics.
