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 […]
Update Sep 2015 This cafe has relocated to: 80 Bencoolen Street NAFA Campus 1 Wing A #01-15 Singapore 189655 Finally finally…there’s a new cafe in Ang Mo Kio! Probably the only one here as well. And the best part is, it’s just located within a 5-min walk from my home! Woohoo! The Hang Out Cafe (formerly known […]
I’m a weird foodie sometimes. While I like to explore new eating places and experience new foods, I also have the tendency to revisit a restaurant several times within a short period of time just because I really like it. It happened to me again recently after I visited Sushi Express at Citylink Mall for the 3rd […]
If the husband and I are out having Japanese food, cold soba (buckwheat) noodle is one item we’d not miss out on. Even at home, I like to substitute other noodles with soba whenever possible as it’s really a healthier alternative that helps with weight management as it contains less calories than the standard spaghetti and […]

Eggs Benedict has got to be one of my top favourite brunch items. Think light & fluffy sourdough English muffins, crispy bacon, poached eggs with runny yolks and a generous drizzle of Hollandaise sauce all on one plate. What could be better than this? I swooned over the Eggs Benny from Spruce @ Phoenix Park which I thought […]
I came across this durian stall a long while back when I was in the vicinity for supper but I didn’t try their durians until recently when my craving hit. This huge, brightly lit stall with a prized collection of different varieties of durians all neatly arranged on metal shelves is located opposite the 24-hour Ho Kee […]
I’m really not sure how I’ve grown to love brinjal or egg plant this much in recent years when it used to be something I hated and just refused to eat (like lady’s fingers or okra which I still dislike!). I think my palates changed when I started having brinjal from Hup Chong Hakka Yong Dou […]
If you ask me where we can find the best char siew in Singapore, I think it definitely has got to be Fatty Cheong which is famous for its Bu Jian Tian (不见天 – means ‘never see the sky’) char siew that is a cut from the pig’s armpit area. Besides that, it also serves […]
