With just one block of pecorino romano that I bought from Foodie Market Place, I probably converted my kitchen to an Italian one for a week, lol. Antipasti, pizzas & pastas – whatever I could whip up so I could make use of this very fine cheese. The husband was in heaven as all these […]
Loy Sum Juan Restaurant (黎三元酒家), one of Singapore’s favourite Cantonese restaurants, might have ceased its operation after 40 long years in business but its famous invention of the Har Cheong Gai still continues to please the palates of fans who just can’t have enough of it. Roy Lai, who was the chef at LSJ, started 12 […]

There is something about steamed chicken that is so wickedly delicious because the meat is tender, juicy and succulent and we can really taste its natural sweetness too. In fact, plain steamed chicken is already good on its own without the need for any extra sauce. However for variety and a change of palates, I […]
This Michelin-starred dim sum restaurant from Hong Kong hit Singapore shores amid a storm of hype more than a year ago but the husband and I had only just visited it recently when we were at Plaza Singapura. There wasn’t a long queue on a late Saturday afternoon, that was why we decided to go for an […]
Welcome to Geri’s boot camp! My very own torture chamber! Lol. Where I put myself through ‘extreme torture’ just to get to where I am now. Because exercising is REALLY tough! And I’m not kidding!
