Those residing in Ang Mo Kio are probably very familiar with this popular carrot cake stall at the hawker centre in Ang Mo Kio Central that only sells the white crispy version. It is located next to my favourite drinks stall (read my previous review here) that serves up one of the best home-made ice […]
I made wonton noodles over the weekend and had a few bundles of egg noodles left in the fridge so I paired the noodles with some roasted chicken drumsticks for a complete new dish. The marinate sauce for the noodles is the same as what I’d do for the dry wonton noodles, simply by using […]
Palais Renaissance in Orchard Road is probably on one of the less busy stretches of the area. I only frequented this particular place during my school days in the 90s when I was working part time at a Brit company located in Orchard Towers and the office manager would sometimes treat me to lunch at […]
My godma popped by suddenly with fresh chicken wings and potatoes that she bought early in the morning to ask me to cook curry chicken for her. And I was glad that she also managed to get hold of freshly squeezed coconut milk from the market near her home. Fresh coconut milk really makes a […]
Finally arrived! I had placed my order in early December last year but due to the peak festive season, shipping was quite slow this time which was inevitable. I received my items in 3 separate boxes at different times over Christmas to the new year. Despite the holiday delay, everything came in good condition and […]

Plus it is probably the cheapest vegetable you can get from the wet market (I bought mine for only $0.30!) so it’s really a very affordable dish. I try to pair bean sprouts with different ingredients for variety. If you like […]
The husband gave me a surprise gift last night. It was a Pentax brand retro-style camera and my all-time favourite Forever Friends bear card. I was very touched that my husband managed to find this particular camera because it’s not a popular brand in Singapore. In fact, shops that carry Pentax cameras did not even […]
Whenever I chance upon a NYDC, I’d get reminded of an old classmate who really loved dining there that she’d always order the same baked rice, same pizza and same mudpie every time. This was more than 10 years ago when there was a NYDC outlet at Suntec City so it became one of our […]
The only time when I really enjoyed eating fish balls was probably during my primary school days when I’d order fish ball noodles soup at recess time. Over the years, I seemed to have lost interest in these balls that I used to like because the commercial ones have added flour and don’t taste of […]
