The New Dynamo Power Gel – An Effective Laundry Detergent and Stain Remover

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 […]

Saba Shioyaki Recipe (Salt Grilled Mackerel)

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, […]

Seafood Bee Hoon Recipe

Or should I call it Japchae-style seafood noodles? I drew inspiration from Japchae (a Korean stir-fry dish of sweet potato noodles or ‘dangmyeon’ and vegetables) and combined it with rice vermicelli (‘bee hoon’) to create this wet seafood bee hoon.

Mei Heong Yuen Dessert 味香园甜品 @ Chinatown Point

Honestly, I cannot remember if I’ve ever had a dessert at Mei Heong Yuen though I’ve passed by the shop countless times whenever I come to Chinatown and it is always busy.

[Closed] Cafe Insadong @ South Bridge Road (Chinatown)

Update: Closed on 31 December 2016. I was making my way to Tong Heng to grab my favourite egg tarts when I stumbled upon this Korean-inspired cafe which was located directly opposite the Chinatown Food Street. I was just captivated by the arty-farty feel of the cafe exterior which was likely trying to replicate the […]

Thai Basil Chicken Recipe

One thing I love about Thai Basil Chicken is how sweet and aromatic the dish is because of the use of basil leaves which is one of my favourite herbs. While the ones I’ve had outside previously were mostly drier versions (almost dry to little sauce) served with steamed rice and a sunny side up, […]
