I made wanton noodles earlier and had these extra egg noodles left in the fridge so I turned them into a fried egg noodles dish that’s both delightful and easy to make.

Hougang 6 Miles Famous Muah Chee

Muah chee is definitely one of my favourite childhood snacks because I can never resist that chewy glutinous rice dough coated with crunchy coarsely ground peanuts and sugar that is so aromatic and addictive.

Dim Sum High Tea Buffet @ Yum Cha Restaurant, Chinatown

I share a special relationship with Yum Cha Restaurant as it’s a place where I had experienced a few first times. The first dim sum buffet I had with the husband.

Ci Wen Vegetarian @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 8

The husband and I often come to this coffeeshop where Astons Express is located and every time we are here dining, we would see people ordering various delectable vegetarian dishes from this particular stall.
