This is what I call the Poor Man’s Lobster Roll, lol. Most of you are probably not unfamiliar with lobster rolls because they are one of the ‘in’ things to eat in Singapore. But the costs can be really expensive and you probably don’t even get a lot of lobster meat for what you pay. […]
I got the inspiration to make gochujang mayonnaise from Judy Joo’s “Korean Food Made Simple” on Food Network. And I thought that would be an excellent idea to boost the regular mayonnaise with an added punch of flavour. Fried food and mayonnaise always go hand in hand and since I had some squids in the […]

Update: Chef In Box ready-to-eat meals have new packaging labels now that show a detailed listing of ingredients used. When contacted, they explained that the ‘preservatives’ that were printed on the label were from the seasoning sauces used and that they did not add any extra preservatives to the food.

Hi everyone, I need your help especially from those of you residing in the UK. Please kindly share this post with your family and friends as I’m hoping to find my late grandmother’s former employer and his family with whom she had worked for in the 1950s. My maternal grandmother, Madam Chua Bak Lang, passed […]
I remembered coming across a copycat KFC fried chicken recipe while flipping through a recipe book at the library a while back.
