I always frequent Chinatown for its good food but the only time when I feel Chinatown truly comes alive is during the pre-Chinese New Year period. Normally, I try to avoid crowded places but over the weekend, my husband and I decided to venture to Chinatown to bask in the festive mood and revel in […]
If you’ve been to Adam Road Food Centre, you’d probably have noticed the endlessly long queue for their nasi lemak. Selera Rasa has won numerous accolades and awards for being the best nasi lemak stall in Singapore and till today, I still think their nasi lemak has consistently maintained its high standard. Its second outlet […]
I like char siew (chinese style roasted pork) for its smoky, roasted flavour but I don’t really fancy the artificial red colouring used for most of the outside ones so when I chanced upon this recipe from My Wok Life that doesn’t use any colouring at all, I just have to try it. […]
In Part 1 of this post (click here to read), I had reviewed NamNam Noodle Bar’s Vietnamese pho. While the pho was good and worth returning for, what got me hooked are their Banh Mi or toasted baguettes stuffed with savoury meats, pate, mayo, chilli peppers, pickled carrots, daikon, cucumber and coriander. It is incredible […]
I love soupy noodles and Vietnamese pho (soupy rice flour noodles) is just one of my favourites especially when I crave for something piping hot yet light on the palates. I’ve had good ones in Viet restaurants in the States and my mother-in-law makes really good pho too so I am quite particular when it […]
I love cheese! If you adore cheese as much as I do, I’m sure you’d like this easy cheddar pasta dish which is quick to make and just tastes so wonderfully rich and cheesy. I was just being greedy because 250g of grated cheddar is really A LOT for a 2 persons’ serving but I […]
This is the third time I am reviewing Rive Gauche because it’s really one of the few patisseries in Singapore that I go to frequently for my sugar fix. Read my previous review here. This time round, the husband brought home these two delightful treats to cheer me up as I was feeling a little […]
I always wondered why this dish was known as “Three Cups Chicken” before I tried it for the first time. I even thought that probably the original recipe calls for 3-cup portions of chicken which I’m wrong of course. The dish derives its name from three different cups of sauces, mainly soy sauce, rice wine […]
I seldom visit the Golden Mile Complex but when I do, it’s because I need something from the Thai supermarket on 2nd level which houses many made-in-Thailand products ranging from snacks, sauces, condiments, fresh spices and herbs for cooking Thai cuisine. If you’re a big fan of sriracha (Thai hot sauce), you’d be spoilt for […]
