Whenever I come to this part of Singapore, it’s always to visit the Nike Factory Store (Level 1, West Coast Plaza) to grab new trainers or sports apparel. I was here on a Saturday afternoon but it was clearly not that crowded. Not even in the mall itself so it’s pretty good to just walk around without the […]
Hooray! I’m delighted to have lost almost 10kg in 2 1/2 months with cardio exercises and strength training. And I’m happily throwing out my old clothes to make way for new ones as they are all 1-2 sizes too big for me now. I must really give credit to the LIVESTRONG calorie tracker app that […]
Ok, I wouldn’t really call this a recipe as it only involves putting two ingredients into the oven. A bottle of ikan bilis (dried anchovies) with peanuts is something that I always have in the pantry as I like to sprinkle them over plain porridge or vegetable stir-fry. I’m quite fussy about what type of […]
* Sponsored Review * In my previous review on Happy Avenue (click here to read), I had raved about Judy Then’s traditional plain kueh lapis which I totally adore. It is a layered cake any kueh lapis aspires to be – buttery rich and full of egg flavour – minus the unwelcome grease on the fingers. When Judy told me she would […]
Visiting Westgate for the first time last week was really a fruitful experience for me as it is a new mall with new (finally!) shops to explore besides different dining options and of course this enticing bakery too. No good bakery escapes my eyes, lol. That’s how passionate I am with breads, not just any other breads […]
Recently I’m quite into cooking one-main-dish-on-rice type of meals. Not only they are inexpensive to prepare, they consist of a balanced diet with both meat and vegetables in them which means I do not have to cook another meat or vegetable dish separately and that certainly saves time especially great for weekday dinners when you’re […]
I really like the convenience of having food kiosks at MRT stations that have been sprouting up in busy suburban towns all over the island these days so grabbing a bite while commuting to & from school or work is simply easy-peasy. When I was at Woodlands earlier, I was just impressed by the long […]
I just had a sudden thought of my last business trip to the Philippines and recalled that the food I had there were very similar to our Chinese food so I started searching for Filipino recipes and came across this congee one which looked really scrumptious. Hot congee is always so tummy warming on a […]
Since my last visit to Monster Curry (read my earlier blog post here), the husband and I decided to give the Monster Combo Curry Set a try again but this time at a higher spice level of Super Hot. And our verdict? It is still not hot enough! I really don’t think the next and highest […]
