Wholesale Nuts & Seeds at Teck Sang (Hong Kong Street)

While most people are stocking up their pantries with Chinese New Year tidbits and goodies, I’m stocking up mine with an assortment of nuts and seeds. After my recent visits to Victoria Wholesale Centre and Albert Centre Wholesale Market, I’m now into this (go) nuts shopping frenzy that I’m sure any chipmunk or squirrel would […]

Albert Centre Wholesale Market @ Queen Street (Bugis)

When I heard that there was a wholesale market on the third level of the Albert Centre Market and Food Centre, I felt really gutted for not knowing about it earlier. I had been to this part of Bugis umpteen times and often had meals in the vicinity too but yet I didn’t know a […]

Victoria Wholesale Centre @ Kallang Avenue

I was going to Geylang from Lavender and thought I’d stop by the Victoria Wholesale Centre on the way just to check out what the place was like. This was my first visit since the wholesale centre moved from Bugis to here 3 years ago. Most of us would be familiar with the Victoria Wholesale Centre […]

[CLOSED] Taiwan Railway Bento 台湾鐵路便當 @ CT Hub (Kallang)

Update: This outlet had closed. Bentos were first introduced to Taiwan by the Japanese many decades ago and railway bentos simply grew in popularity as people packed rice boxes to eat onboard the train during long inter-city journeys. Unlike the Japanese equivalent that’s normally chilled, Taiwanese railway bentos are served hot with a wide variety […]

Honey Sesame Chicken Recipe

I meant to make this a Chinese dish but ended up serving it like Western food, lol because I didn’t fancy steamed rice to go with the chicken. I served the chicken with sweet potato mash instead that was easy to prepare and required no extra flavouring since sweet potato was already good on its own The […]

Proofer Boulangerie @ The Seletar Mall

Previously, I had tried the pizzas from Proofer Bakery & Pizzeria @ Changi City Point and really liked their pizza dough that was crusty & crispy on the outside yet soft & moist on the inside. So when I came across its bakery at Seletar Mall, I thought I would grab a couple of breads home […]

Spicy Stir Fried Tempeh with Crab Meat Recipe

Sounds like a weird dish eh? Well, my newest creation is kind of similar to my earlier Sweet & Spicy Tempeh & Tofu Stir Fry Recipe, both of which were inspired by my favourite sambal goreng dish. This time, I added a touch of fusion element by combining Asian & Western flavours. The tip is to use fresh crab […]

Founder Bak Kut Teh Restaurant @ Balestier Road

My Bak Kut Teh adventure continues, lol. Right after having an unexciting BKT at Song Fa the day before, the husband insisted that we should go try the famous Founder BKT @ Balestier that so many people had raved about. Even celebrities like Jay Chou would always visit this place whenever he is in Singapore. Hmm, what’s so great […]

Thai Style Seafood Salad Recipe

I accompanied Dad to the temple the other day and then treated him lunch at his favourite Thai restaurant. Every time he would order seafood salad as a side to share and I could see how much he enjoyed that explosion of flavours – sweet, sour, spicy and salty – that really tickled our tastebuds and triggered our appetite. […]
