Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to those of you who celebrate! Do you love mooncakes? Honestly, I’m not a big fan of them especially the traditional ones as I don’t like lotus seed paste. Plus, most mooncakes are often too sweet so they get really sickly. If I do buy any, I’ll only get those with pure […]
Today, I’m featuring the last product from Heng’s (a Malaysian food brand) range of spices and pastes that I had bought off Qoo10. It’s a Braised Pork Belly Recipe, also known as Tau Yu Bak to some. Like most other Heng’s products, this pack of Heng’s Stewed Fragrant Herbs & Spices contains no MSG. It is […]
Update: KL Delight Seafood Restaurant has ceased operations. I first came across KL Delight Seafood Restaurant on Qoo10 some time back when they were having this $9.90 sea bass promotion. Yes, $9.90 for a 600g-700g sized sea bass and you can take your pick from 11 cooking styles that include sweet & sour, Thai, Teochew and […]
We were seated right in front of 知者来 (or Zhi Zhe Lai) as we were having breakfast at the Toa Payoh West Market & Food Centre. This stall is located a few units away from Teochew Handmade Pau so if you’re seated in the same section, you shouldn’t miss this. Saw many customers leaving with […]
Whenever GM visited me previously, she would always bring along a box of at least a dozen of these cute-looking mini pau (steamed buns) from Teochew Handmade Pau. That’s the good thing about living in Toa Payoh because it’s a foodie-paradise neighbourhood with many famous foods around, both old-fashioned and hipster ones. ? The reason […]
Couple of months back, IKEA in Singapore had suspended sales of their famed chicken wings after receiving numerous complaints about their deteriorating quality. I shared the same thoughts with many too. That the IKEA chicken wings were getting miserably smaller in size, less crispy on the outside and drier on the inside. That said, the […]
My friend P who is Thai, would always look forward to coming to Singapore because he loves our chicken rice a lot. He never fails to pack Boon Tong Kee’s chicken rice back home whenever he comes here as he couldn’t find a chicken rice in Bangkok that is as good as BTK’s. When I […]
This is like the 3rd time I’ve blogged about Yum Cha Restaurant in Chinatown, lol. Been coming here for its Weekday Dim Sum High Tea Buffet for years and the food has never let me down. Whenever we have family or friends visiting us in Singapore, Yum Cha is one of the places that we […]
Most of you in Singapore should be quite familiar with Din Tai Fung, which is one of the best restaurants to go for good xiao long bao. Back at home, I frequent Din Tai Fung a lot as an ex-boss of mine is a big fan of theirs so whenever we arrange for a catch […]
Whenever I come to the Balestier area, I seldom leave here without getting a box of my favourite tau sar piah or 豆沙饼, a Chinese flaky pastry with green bean billing. I had tried the tau sar piah from several bakeries in the same neighbourhood. [Read my earlier blog post -> 603 Tau Sar Piah […]
It has been more than 5 years since I came here for a meal. [Read my earlier blog post on this place -> Rabbit Brand Seafood Delicacies.] Been wanting to bring J here to try the food but never got the chance to until recently when we were out for an urban walk and we […]
Almost coming to an end of my KL travel & eat-venture posts. I’ve shared many good eats in KL so far but I haven’t touched on dining options in Avenue K even though my hotel was only next to it. So in my final 2 KL posts, I shall feature two restaurants in Avenue K […]
Yut Kee Restaurant has been serving up traditional Hainanese fare since 1928. It is one of the oldest kopitiam names in KL and is also one of the most popular breakfast places to go to for both locals and tourists. It was previously located along Jalan Dang Wangi (just a right-angled turn from its current […]
Jalan Alor is probably KL’s most famed food street in the heart of Bukit Bintang. It is quiet in the day but it comes alive, bustling with hawker stalls lining the sidewalks when the sun goes down. This place is very popular with tourists – droves would come gallivanting around looking for local eats. And […]
A new tze char place, Famous JB 101 Firewokz has recently opened for business at WCEGA Tower along Bukit Batok Crescent. I was invited for a food tasting session last week and so I headed to the West to check it out. The location is quite out of the way as WCEGA Tower is only […]
One of my readers recommended me to try Ah Seng Bak Kut Teh after I did a comprehensive review of popular BKTs in SG and JB. For those who missed out on my earlier posts, have a read if you’re interested: Song Fa Bak Kut Teh Founder Bak Kut Teh Ng Ah Sio Bak Kut […]
