After a whole day of (junk) food-hopping, I was really craving for some soupy dish or noodles to reset my tummy. And hence we picked Ho Min San for dinner. Ho Min San specialises in Cantonese-style rice vermicelli (米线) and Shanghainese pan-fried buns (生煎包). This Chinese restaurant is owned by Dragon-i Group that also manages […]

Non-stop eating action in Johor Bahru continues! We had a mini vacation in JB just so we could have more time to mall-hop and food-hop.? If you’ve not read my previous posts, check out my review on Amerin Hotel Johor Bahru as well as the following – AEON Tebrau City Food Court Chizu & Honzu […]

K-drama fans may be familiar with Isaac Toast, a popular toast sandwich chain from South Korea. The toast shop was featured in the drama Jang Bo-ri Is Here! 张宝利来了 and that was how I got to know about it too. And the good thing is, we don’t have to travel all the way to South […]

Came across Chizu & Honzu as we were walking around AEON Mall Tebrau City in Johor Bahru. It was that fresh-out-of-the-oven aroma that first caught my attention and I just couldn’t resist that tempting scent. Chizu & Honzu are actually two sister brands/companies. Chizu (on the right hand side) specialises in cheese teas/drinks whereas Honzu […]

Hands up if you also have a penchant for checking out convenience stores and supermarkets when overseas!?‍♀️ 7-Eleven, FamilyMart, Big C, Carrefour and the like. Because if you do, you definitely have to visit the newly refurbished AEON Tebrau City food court in Johor Bahru. Before its major refurbishment, I was already a big fan […]

Just did my first overnight stay at Amerin Hotel in Johor Baru!? Never really thought of doing so previously because I normally go JB for day trips only. This time round, I wanted to do some thorough home accents shopping so decided to stay near Paradigm Mall because it houses my favourite shops (Kaison, Romantika […]

When my husband and I went back to England to visit my in-laws, we decided to also go on a short trip to Paris. Took the Eurostar from Ebbsfleet, Kent (€74 per pax per way) which was nearer to where we were in Essex (South-East of England). The whole journey was about 2 hours 5 […]

Started the day with a hearty brunch at Imbi Market @ ICC Pudu where I ordered two huge servings of chee cheong fun & yong tau foo from Ah Fook Chee Cheong Fun. Spent RM41 just on that, lol. ? Totally worth it because this is one thing I will fly from SG to KL […]

Back again in KL for the umpteenth time! I’ve really lost track on the number of times I’ve been here for both business and leisure so coming here again really feels like returning to my second home, lol. This recent trip was a little different because we had my in-laws (who were visiting from the […]

I broke my last walking record, woohoo! Actually I still couldn’t believe that I managed to do so because it was my first attempt doing a long-distance walk of more than 20km. By the end of the walk, I actually lost a toe nail (ouch) and had plenty of blisters on the rest of my […]

There’s no such thing as too much cheese tarts! ? So sinful but so irresistible. I’ve been a loyal supporter of Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart for a year or so now. Since then, I’ve been buying their cheese tarts whenever I stumble upon an outlet either in Singapore or Malaysia. Still think the tarts from their KL […]

What to eat in Bangkok? You may wonder. Thailand may be better known as the Land of Smiles but I’m sure many would agree that it is also the Land of Street Food and the perfect foodie’s paradise. Every trip to Bangkok is always a mouth-watering one. And there is just no reason not to […]

I don’t know about most of you but to me, I think the hardest thing about travelling is actually going home. Going back to reality. Back to our daily obligations. Back to our usual old routine. When it was time to say goodbye to the Land of Smiles, I still felt kinda sad. Even though […]

Besides good food and bargain shopping, I’m sure one other reason that draws many of us to Bangkok regularly is to pamper ourselves with a reinvigorating massage. And it’s just a bonus that massages in Thailand are also relatively inexpensive. Well, in fact, it’s so cheap that we can easily afford to have a massage […]

On our last night in Bangkok, we opted for a quiet and relaxing sit-down meal in one of our all-time favourite restaurants, Ban Khun Mae. After a week’s worth of street food overload, we just had to have something different. ? Ban Khun Mae is located in Siam Square, just across the road from Som […]

I’m the kind of traveller who likes to head straight to the nearest supermarket upon checking in at the hotel so as to stock up my room with essential supplies like drinking water. It is also kinda fun to explore the supermarket at the same time just to see if there’s any new and interesting […]
