I was totally mad for Lao Ban beancurd when the beancurd fad descended on Singapore two years ago. I would join the long queues that formed at various times of the day just to eat the cold pudding-like beancurd, made
Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken
I made this Vietnamese lemongrass chicken dish on Christmas Day, using a recipe created by my friend C. I am sure she would not mind me posting her recipe here. As she promised, it was a delicious and super easy
Osmanthus Flower Jelly
There was a period of time when konnyaku jelly was all the rage amongst people I know. I would see konnyaku jelly made with strawberries, or fruit cocktail, or nata de coco appearing at potluck gatherings and parties. When
Eating Weekend In Kuala Lumpur
Merry Christmas! This blog is still alive, it just went into hibernation mode for a while. November, an eventful month for me, came and passed by so quickly. Besides turning a year older, my dear maternal grandfather passed away peacefully
Ten-ele-ven 2013
What did I do on my birthday? Made a stack of buttermilk pancakes in the morning, opened a bottle of champagne, laid down on my couch the whole day, watching dramas on my computer. With the rain pitter-pattering outside. Not
Almond Milk with Ground Cinnamon and Honey

Seoul: SOFTREE Organic Milk Soft Serve In Garosugil
On my way to One Chu at Garosugil, I walked passed this nondescript-looking ice-cream parlour called SOFTREE which was two shops away from One Chu. The fonts on the signboard caught my attention and I decided to check it out
Peekture: Whiskey Night
My company organised a whiskey appreciation night. We had someone come in and give us the 101 on tasting notes of several types of whiskeys. Unfortunately, I didn’t come away being smarter about whisky. ‘Cos I didn’t pay much attention
Seoul: Club Expresso + Sanmotoonge In Buamdong
One of the places that I wanted to visit during this summer trip was Buamdong, a quiet but quirky neighbourhood in Seoul that is nestled between two mountains. I read that it had lovely walking trails, leading to a number
I ♥ Tsui Wah
I have been glued to the computer watching several animes recently, and haven’t gotten around to updating some of the posts that I have been working on. Plus work hasn’t altogether been terribly inspiring, which simply means that it is
