Right after Baker Talent opened for business at Ang Mo Kio Central, I spotted another new bakery Yuen Long Hong Kong Pastry & Buns just diagonally across which always has a queue of patrons whenever I pass by. Not a bad thing actually. It just means we have more choices of bakeries in the town central now. The husband […]
Recently, I tried KL Style Hokkien Mee at Geylang and thought I’d try to recreate a healthier version of it at home minus away the so-good-but-so-sinful pork lard. The KL version of Hokkien Mee is quite different from the local one we get here and the most obvious difference is in the colour. KL one is ‘black’ […]
When the husband and I are out on a date, enjoying a sweet treat at tea time is a mandatory thing to do, lol. After our satisfying lunch at Nando’s followed by a good dose of retail therapy (actually it was him who really shopped, not me! times had changed…haha), we headed to Secret Recipe for its […]
Before Nando’s was hatched in Singapore and Johor Bahru in 2010, the closest place where I could get my hands on their flame-grilled peri-peri chicken was their Sungei Wang outlet in KL, Malaysia where I used to travel to quite often for business. Even though Singapore and JB are just neighbours and one probably wouldn’t expect the […]
On days when I have a cold or sinus infection and my nose goes stuffy, I tend to crave for spicy things that can help unblock my nose and make me breathe better. Since I was down with flu last month, I couldn’t quite smell or taste my food properly for a period of time so […]
I first came to know about this yong tau foo place a few years ago when an ex-colleague drove us here for lunch and we had come here couple of times since then as the food was good. This place is quite hard to get to if you have no car as it’s located in a rather remote area […]
I had to go A&E on Tuesday when I had really bad nausea that made me vomit the whole day till I suffered from severe dehydration. Nearly passed out at the hospital so I had to be put on drip. Not an exciting week for me indeed. Been having flu symptoms for 1.5 months but never did […]
My mum had once told me before that when she was still carrying me, she always had a craving for chicken pies besides nasi lemak (even in the wee hours of the night) though it wasn’t her favourite type of food. Seemed like I was born to eat chicken pies, lol. If my memory serves […]
Some would probably be familiar with Chui Huay Lim Teochew Cuisine especially if you love Teochew food. The restaurant which is located at the 169-year-old Chui Huay Lim Club along Keng Lee Road, serves up some of the most authentic Teochew dishes that epitomise traditional Teochew cooking at its best with homely fare like Teochew muay (porridge) to the […]
