I would say this is a clean-eating recipe as I just want to keep all ingredients fresh and natural including the sauce for the pasta which is basically made of pumpkin puree. Pumpkin itself is quite sweet and I’ve always like adding pumpkin puree into porridge to give it flavour so I don’t have to […]
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 […]
Claypot Tofu is one of my all-time favourite dishes to order at any tze char stall in Singapore because of its savoury gravy that goes very well with rice. And since I’m one who loves variety, I really like the idea of having a wide assortment of ingredients (vegetables, meats and/or seafood) in one single […]
This is a pie with no pastry. 😉 Oven-baked fish or seafood pie is one of my favourite casserole recipes and definitely the ultimate comfort food. You can use almost any seafood of your choice and an assortment of vegetables (preferably hard ones that don’t turn mushy easily when cooked for too long). Paired with […]
Since trying Brickfields Pisang Goreng in KL, Malaysia (that was like the best!) during my last trip there, my love for goreng pisang was rekindled after so many years.

When I first started adding barley into my stews to act as a thickener (see my Beef and Carrot Stew Recipe), I realise how versatile barley can be in both sweet (makes a lovely accompaniment to green bean soup!) and savoury dishes. Barley is low in GI and can be a great, healthy substitute to […]
The first dish that Granny taught me to make when I was little was actually fried rice. It had chopped luncheon meat, diced char siew and frozen mixed vegetables in it. I remembered I was only 9 years old then and I was a member of the Brownies group in school. I had to learn […]
Update: This restaurant has ceased operations. H and I stumbled upon this Korean BBQ restaurant when we were shopping at Waterway Point some time ago so we arranged to come back on a weekday for their lunch buffet. Prices were considered very reasonable as this was an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ buffet. Weekday (2-hour limit) Lunch […]
I love fish but I’m somewhat scared of fish, lol. I remembered there was a time when I was still little and I was eating dinner in front of the TV. I accidentally swallowed a fish bone which caused me so much discomfort in the throat that Gran had to rush me to the GP. […]
