至亲爱的奶奶与外婆，祝你们母亲节快乐。 虽然你们已离开两个多月了，我还是好想念你们。 I remembered the day when a distant relative visited my grandmother at hospital with her homemade red bean porridge. Grandma had no appetite then but managed to eat a few mouthfuls and said it was good because the red beans made the porridge somewhat sweet and fragrant. So I thought of making red […]
I initially planned to cook a vegetable curry so I bought egg plant and long beans but in the end, I came up with this pasta dish instead which was a marriage of Italian and Asian flavours – a cross between a bolognese pasta and a mee goreng probably? Lol. Sounds like a weird combo? […]
Hubby and I came by Square 2 at Novena because I wanted to check out the pet shop there for a cream colour Syrian hamster but to no avail. If any of you peeps happen to see a solid cream colour baby Syrian hamster at any pet shop in Singapore, please drop me a line, […]
If you’ve bought a pack of fresh cranberries only to realise how awfully sour they are, don’t fret as they won’t go to waste. 🙂 Fresh cranberries make great additions to sweet baked goods as their tartness balances out the sweetness and gives a somewhat refreshing note like this Cranberry Streusel Muffins Recipe.

I jumped on the Itacho Sushi bandwagon only less than 2 years ago. Before that, I wouldn’t even consider myself a huge fan of mass-market sushi brands because the quality of food could be (and still are) quite inconsistent at times even though prices were on the rise due to inflation. But so far my previous […]
Kung Pao Chicken. Kung Pao Pork. Kung Pao Prawns. I just love ’em all. I think the kung pao sauce is simply one of the best in Chinese cuisine, imo. It’s spicy, sweet, savoury and nutty – sure to reignite the tastebuds and leave us wanting more. I decided to try something new this time. […]
I was feeling very free after my medical appointment so I decided to journey north-east to check out the new Waterway Point. I totally loved the mall because it was situated in a rather scenic spot of a relatively new residential estate. You would know what I mean as you read on. 🙂 I don’t […]
H recently introduced me to the nasi ambeng (pronounced ‘um-bng’) which she had tried and fell in love with while in Indonesia. It’s a traditional Javanese feast that’s usually eaten during the festivities and consists of rice and assorted meat and vegetable dishes served on a platter or tray meant for sharing between 4-5 persons. […]
Shrimp Fried Rice Quinoa looks just like a regular fried rice. I just love quinoa’s versatility as we can serve it as a side or easily turn it into a one-dish main like this. I had previously made a similar fried quinoa – see Quinoa Fried Rice Recipe (with salmon) so you see how easy […]
