I’m normally very sensitive to environmental allergens like dust, animal dander, mold or smoke that can trigger really bad symptoms of blocked nose, running nose, sneezing and even dry coughing for days or weeks. Especially during the haze period some weeks back that greatly affected the whole of Singapore, these symptoms of mine came back […]
Since my husband moved here from England, he had dearly missed the pork dumplings that his mum used to make back home which were really tasty. So I attempted my first try at making these dumplings, in the hope of satisfying the husband’s cravings for this meaty delight. Pork Dumplings Recipe (Makes about 28-35 dumplings) Ingredients […]
For my Dad’s recent birthday, I had wanted to make a durian cake for him since durian is his favourite fruit. But due to the hazy weather earlier alongside with the presence of the unwelcomed flu bug at home, I had to change the durian cake to a Tiramisu Charlotte Cake which is less ‘heaty’ compared […]
My husband and I used to go to Ikea once in a while for their meatballs. However, the standard and quality of these little morsels have deteriorated over the years. Now, I find them too floury for my liking. And we can’t taste the meat in them anymore which is a shame because their brown […]
Ever since the last time I dined at Blue Garden Korean BBQ Restaurant (read my review here) when I felt a little disappointed that there weren’t any beef short ribs, I decided to continue my hunt for another authentic Korean bbq place that could be the one. I love all sorts of Korean food and their […]
Ever since my last business trip to South Korea when I tasted the most divine grilled bulgogi beef, I’ve been in love with this dish for the longest time.

I love our local hawker fare because they are mostly unhealthy (hence tasty) and I must say satay is one of my favourite choices especially when I prefer meat to carbs. In order for me and my husband to enjoy these sinful treats minus the high fat and high cholesterol content, the only way out […]
Looks familiar? Yes, it is the same picture as the background of this blog which was taken at my wedding reception. Being the practical me, I never fancy conventional guestbooks on which guests will pen their messages in ink. Not only taking up space, we all know paper material will age and grow yellow over […]
For my husband’s birthday, I decided to bake him a red velvet cake which is considered my first attempt at professional cake decorating. It is also the first patisserie-standard choice of cake I ever considered making. It is a big risk because I’m no expert in baking so anything could go wrong. Normally I only […]
