During the period when I was recuperating after surgery, the husband took care of most of my meals. When I could finally chew on something hard (goodbye porridges and congees!), he whipped up a steak meal for me as a well deserved treat. His ‘anyhow-make’ recipe turned out to be pretty satisfying 🙂 Weeks later, […]
The husband was yearning for a burger – an unhealthy one that would make us feel guilty after eating but at the same time, die without regrets, haha. And so we made our way to Upper Thomson Road for Fatboy’s, one of the most popular burger joints in Singapore, for what we always looked forward […]
My maternal grandmother makes a fabulous dry chicken curry that doesn’t require coconut milk which in turn makes it healthier too. For my version of ‘dry curry’, I decided to use pork ribs instead of chicken and packed a whole bunch of spices into the paste that really made the dish so flavoursome and moreish. […]
It has been almost 5 years since my last visit to Shin Minori (click on the link to read my past review). When I saw that it was a participating merchant on The Entertainer App, I just had to ask J to join me for a 1-for-1 lunch buffet (U.P. S$34++ per pax) that worked out […]
It’s Veggie Friday! And that’s why I am posting my 2nd vegetable recipe of the day 🙂 Are you into eggplant (brinjal/aubergine) dishes too? Check out my healthy Steamed Eggplant Recipe that I had just published earlier today. In the past, I would stir fry mushrooms with either broccoli, cauliflower or kai-lan (Chinese broccoli) but since […]
Since I had my thyroid surgery, my doctor had strongly discouraged me from eating cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower because he said these were the vegetables that could promote ‘growth’ and because I still have a few small cysts on my right thyroid that’s still intact, I’m at risk for future complication should any of the […]
Like many foodies out there, the husband and I sometimes face what’s commonly known as a ‘first world problem’ because we always don’t know what to eat even though there is a huge hawker centre in our neighbourhood and several coffee shops too. To me, I guess it’s a happy problem because it spurs me on […]
I’ve been looking for gold again on Qoo10 and found another great ticket deal for the S.E.A. Aquarium. Ended up paying only S$24+ for 2 (admission-after-2pm) tickets that included admission to The Maritime Experiential Museum and Typhoon Theatre as well. That was a whopping 40% off the published rates! 😉 These tickets had at least […]
I always chuckle when I think of roti john because it reminds me of the first time the husband and I played Taboo (Singapore edition). He hadn’t eaten roti john before and he didn’t know everything about Singaporean cuisine since he only moved to Singapore from the UK not long then but he managed to […]
