Steamed Chicken Recipe (with Ginger)

Those who have tried my Rice Cooker Chicken Claypot Rice Recipe might find the taste of this dish somewhat familiar because that was where I extracted the idea of doing this steamed chicken by using a similar seasoning sauce – one that’s rich, salty, savoury and sweet with a touch of zing from fresh ginger […]

Pan Seared Scallops with Spinach Couscous Recipe

Whenever I come up with a fusion invention dish, I’d always think twice if I should be sharing the recipe because my combination of flavours can be quite odd sometimes.

Cancer: Late detection is half the battle lost

Udon Goen @ Wisma Atria

[Closed] Salad Buffet @ Javier’s Rotisserie & Salad Bar, City Square Mall

Update: Javier’s Rotisserie & Salad Bar had ceased operation w.e.f. 10 January 2016.  If you had been a fan of Ponderosa and/or Sizzler in the good old days, you probably would have known about Javier’s Rotisserie & Salad Bar for its similar salad buffet. Javier’s is actually named after the son of Aston Soon, the […]
