BBQ Sambal Stingray Recipe

A thick, meaty slab of stingray grilled to perfection and served with tangy, spicy sambal chilli. Tender, moist meat that simply melts in your mouth. Heavenly. That is why my husband and I often head to Chomp Chomp Food Centre (read my earlier food post) for this delish dish. It’s a pity I don’t have […]

The revamped Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park that I grew up with

My husband and I felt adventurously motivated to take a brisk walk (approx. 6.5km) to Junction 8 via the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park route. It was also my first return to the park in more than 10 years and it is just amazing to see how much Bishan Park has changed since the 90s. I […]

328 Katong Laksa @ Queensway Shopping Centre

My husband and I made a second trip down to Queensway Shopping Centre so he could buy that pair of Nike Dunk Low sneakers he had been eyeing since our last visit. But it was a wasted effort as that model he wanted was no longer in stock and we just couldn’t find it in […]

Pear Cider Glazed Pork Chops Recipe

One of the aunts gave us bottles of apple and pear ciders during our house-warming party. While we finished the apple ciders, the pear ciders were totally neglected as they didn’t taste as nice and were sitting in my fridge for quite a while so I thought of using it for cooking. Pear Cider Glazed […]

Whenever I’m back in Bali for a holiday, it’d be something that I’d order to go with steamed rice. Refreshing and flavourful with […]
