Danro Japanese Hot Pot Buffet @ NEX, Serangoon

I felt a little turned off to write this blog post because it wasn’t a fully enjoyable dining experience for me and my family. Normally I don’t even start off my food review with such a comment. Read on to find out more. Craving for steamboat, I decided to bring the family to Danro Japanese […]

Stir Fried Bean Sprouts with Salted Fish Recipe

I always buy bean sprouts from the market for about 30 cents and then spend an hour or so plucking away the roots off every sprout. Not that I particularly enjoy this task but I guess its more worthwhile than paying 5 times this price for ready-to-be-used ones. All the trouble just to save that […]

Poached Chicken Rice Recipe

Why would chicken rice taste good without the chicken fats? That’s why I call my version a generic Poached Chicken Rice Recipe instead of Hainanese Chicken Rice Recipe because I have deviated from the traditional way of making oily rice.

Love Lost & Found

When John and I first broke up many years ago, we tried to move on with our lives but we never did forget each other. I always thought about him even though we weren’t even talking and the distance and time lost between us only preserved our love. When we found each other again, we […]

A Walk along the Southern Ridges from Mount Faber to Kent Ridge Park

One of my favourite trekking routes in Singapore, the Southern Ridges comprises 10 km of green, open spaces that connect Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, HortPark, Kent Ridge Park and Labrador Nature Reserve. The walk is long but it isn’t a difficult one as the parks are all linked by foot trails and […]

Fish with Ginger and Spring Onions Recipe 姜葱鱼片

Whenever my family and I have meals in Chinese restaurants, stir fried fish with ginger & spring onions is probably the only fish dish we’d order as it’s easier to eat (without bones), lower in cholesterol compared to other seafood choices and doesn’t taste fishy due to the use of ginger that can conceal any […]
