[Updated 31/5: This book sale had ended one day earlier as they had ran out of stock due to overwhelming response.] And a very satisfying one indeed, haha. I got wind of the book sale after a fellow blogger put up a picture of her bountiful loot on Instagram and I was attracted by the […]
Watching my tomato and chilli seeds sprouting and growing up everyday for the last few months has been quite phenomenal because it just feels like I’m bringing up little kids, haha. Due to the inadequate conditions of my make-do ‘concrete gardening plot’ at the lift lobby outside my apartment, my tomato and chilli seem to […]
I had raved about Greek yogurt earlier which I really thought of it as one of the best yogurt inventions ever and of course, my best buddy when it comes to cooking too, lol. With the addition of just a bit of ground cumin and curry powder, it is so easy to churn out a […]
As we all know, rice is a staple in Chinese cuisine. While I don’t think rice tastes good on its own because it’s just plain and bland, it does pair beautifully with dishes that come with rich, savoury gravies or sauces. Also I like its versatility when it comes to cooking because there are endless […]
I’ve briefly talked about SGMY in my earlier blog post on ORTO last week (read ORTO @ Lorong Chencharu (Yishun) and my latest fad, prawning). It’s actually an alfresco, no-frills bistro that’s located just next to the prawning ponds. When I first heard of ‘SGMY’, I really thought it was an abbreviation of a longer […]
Could this be the end to my hair woes? I certainly hope so. Sometimes I just feel so gutted about my hair because ever since my hair got damaged by perm solution when Gran took me to a home-based hairdresser to get my hair permed when I was 9 years old, my hair just started […]
Some of you might not have heard of ORTO but the name ‘Bottle Tree Park’ might just ring a bell. ORTO (means ‘garden’ or ‘orchard’ in Italian) is a new leisure park that has now taken over the site of former Bottle Tree Park in Yishun (about 8-10 minutes walk from Khatib MRT Station). The […]
I love Nando’s not because their flame-grilled chicken is out of this world but because their peri-peri sauces are just amazing. They are robust in flavour, spicy, tangy, piquant and sweet – everything that’s needed to make a piece of chicken tasty. When I was at Mustafa Centre the other day looking out for interesting buys, I […]
I love curries – be it Chinese, Indian, Nonya or Japanese style. It makes a great one-pot meal with intensely robust flavours and the gravy just goes so well with rice, crusty bread or any noodles. Normally when I cook Japanese curry at home, I’d only use chicken as the base. For a change, I […]
