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 […]
I love figs but the ones we get here in Singapore are usually the dried ones which I would normally add into my breakfast oats or just have them with assorted nuts for a healthy snack. When I saw beautiful fresh figs at the supermarket (uncommon so buy if you see them!), I just had […]
Ever since I visited Spizza @ Club Street five years ago, it has been my favourite pizzeria to go. I totally heart their thin-crusted wood-fired pizzas that are rustic, fresh and comforting. When I knew that Spizza had opened a new outlet at Capitol Piazza, I just had to plan a pizza date with my […]
Since my last visit to Ocean Curry Fish Head for its Nyonya-style fish head curry, I had been missing that sour and spicy gravy that was deliciously moreish. Do you know Nyonya-style fish curry is made from assam or tamarind (that’s why it’s tangy) and that there is no addition of coconut milk? It’s what […]

Chef Ronald did a demo of these two dishes (one savoury and one sweet) from the new brunch menu. Cigar […]

For those who haven’t been to ToTT, check out my earlier blog post, ToTT Store @ Dunearn Road – A One Stop Shop for Kitchen Supplies. It’s my favourite store to go for […]
I had actually stopped buying stuffs on Qoo10 for a long time because it was just too easy to get hooked onto online shopping. I would tend to overspend and end up buying things that I didn’t really need. Having insufficient space at home to store my white elephants didn’t help and I had to […]
When I first received my bottle of Dynamo Power Gel, I was quite impressed with the product design because it came with a screw cap on top that doubled up as a measuring cup. As such, it was easy to measure out sufficient amounts of the power gel depending on the wash load size (about […]
This is one of my favourite fish recipes because saba (mackerel) fillets are rich in omega-3 fatty acids/oil and are so easy to cook as I can just pop them in the oven without having to worry they might dry up or that they will stink up my kitchen (or my entire house), lol. Alternatively, […]
