Hope all of you in SG (and if the country you reside in celebrates Deepavali, the Festival of Lights too 🙂 ) had a good holiday break yesterday. I was feeling a bit under the weather in the last couple of days but managed to bounce back with more energy today. 🙂 Before Deepavali, I […]

This Teriyaki Chicken Don is one of my favourite don recipes because teriyaki chicken almost never goes wrong. It tastes delicious on its own or even when paired with noodles, scattered on top of a pizza or wrapped in a sandwich. Sometimes, the teriyaki chicken that we get from Japanese restaurants here may come with […]

I shared a Chinese Pork Chop Recipe yesterday that was inspired by my Granny’s dish of the same name. And today I’m posting a Chinese Chicken Chop Recipe. 😆 Sounds the same but they are different. 😀 In this recipe, I’ve used honey instead of sugar which gives the chicken a nice glaze and flavour. […]

Granny used to make ‘fusion’ Western food quite often when I was little. Mainly pork chops and chicken chops that she would marinate with Chinese seasonings and then served with several other dishes with rice. I thought of replicating her style of cooking with this Chinese Pork Chop Recipe. The meat is redolent of oyster […]

Ever since I discovered 5 Star Corner Western Food at Hougang Central two years ago, it has become my favourite place to go for pork and chicken cutlets. Their food is affordably priced and come in sizeable portions. Definitely gives more bang for your buck. And the best thing is, their pork and chicken cutlets […]

Not too long ago, I have shared this Swedish Meatballs with Gravy and Lingonberry Jam Recipe. That is simple comfort food that easily pleases the taste buds of both the young and old at home. Just like how many of us still enjoy having IKEA Swedish Meatballs every now and then. This Meatball Pasta with […]

J often says IKEA serves canteen food. Well, I kinda agree too because most of the dishes there come straight out of a frozen bag/box, bottle or can. Despite that, we will still share a plate of Swedish meatballs whenever we visit IKEA, haha. 😀 Canteen Food Can Be Comfort Food Too ‘Canteen food’ once […]

This Almond Chicken Rendang Recipe is inspired by the Spicy Almond Chicken Pasta that I shared sometime back. Both dishes are kinda similar as their sauces somewhat resemble satay sauces but in a more almond-nutty way. Where To Get Almonds in Bulk in Singapore J and I eat almonds a lot so we often buy […]

This Beer Braised Chicken Recipe is an age-friendly recipe. 🙂 The reason why I’m highlighting this is because I was quite amused by my parents earlier. I had asked them if they wanted to bring home some of this beer braised chicken stew I had made and they both responded that ‘they don’t take alcohol’ […]

Fried Garlic Pork or Moo Tod Gratiem in Thai is one of my favourite meat dishes to order at Thai eateries. However, I always have one gripe while ordering fried garlic pork at Thai restaurants – there is just too little garlic in the dish. So for my recipe, I simply chopped/sliced up the garlic […]

Steamed Pork Ribs is always one of my must-order dim sum items as I love the salty flavour of the fermented black beans and the tender pork ribs that are always served steaming hot. However, there is one thing that I don’t appreciate about the dish i.e. the pork ribs used are often too fatty. […]

Whenever my husband and I dine at Irodori Japanese Restaurant @ Riverview Hotel, we will never miss out ordering a few servings of their beef rolls with enoki mushrooms. There is just something special about this simple yet clever combination that makes it so delicious – both in the taste and texture departments. I just have […]

If my father-in-law is here with us, I’m sure he will be so proud of me coming up with different variations of salt and pepper dishes (like this Salt and Pepper Pork Ribs) that are inspired by his specialty – Salt and Pepper Pork. It’s one of my favourite dishes that I can never have […]

I just couldn’t forget how amazing the Com Suon Nuong I had in Hanoi was. It was an old and unassuming eatery that served up only one dish – Vietnamese Pork Chop Rice – which seemingly looked like a humble plate of mixed rice (‘chap chye png’). But that smoky flavour of the meat combined with […]

In the last couple of months, I stumbled upon several different pasar malam (night markets) at various neighbourhood precincts and I noticed that more and more vendors were selling moo ping or Thai-style grilled pork skewers. Yep, I’m talking about those tender, juicy and smoky grilled pork that you can get for 10 baht per […]

This brand of China Apple soda was one of my favourite soft drinks during my childhood years. Granny loved it and we would always share one whenever we were out for a meal. I had actually meant to use apple cider for this dish but I changed my mind and decided to pick up a […]
