As part of my Ang Mo Kio food hunt, I made my way to Mayflower Market & Food Centre wanting to eat this fishball noodles which I thought was pretty good when I tried it a long while back but the stall had closed and was replaced by a pastry shop. So I walked to the other […]

Godma and I were at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3 as she wanted to grab a bottle of ointment (to ease joint pains and muscle aches) from this Chinese medical hall at Blk 302 whose physician happens to be Wong Fei Hong’s 4th generation disciple. I’m fascinated by resourceful folks like Godma herself who always […]

Happy Birthday, dear husband! You are one year wiser today, woo hoo! 🙂 An exciting day awaits you! Ok, back to food. The folks finally won the Big Sweep for the first time ever after ‘wasting money’ over a span of 30+ years (it’s like winning a few hundred dollars only after losing thousands beforehand but it’s all about the […]

Having lived in Ang Mo Kio all my life, I know there are actually a lot more to explore in this new town besides the AMK Hub and the already-bustling town centre. I realise there are so many food centres in the neighbourhood that we can go to even though every weekend my husband and […]

* Sponsored Review * In my previous review on Happy Avenue (click here to read), I had raved about Judy Then’s traditional plain kueh lapis which I totally adore. It is a layered cake any kueh lapis aspires to be – buttery rich and full of egg flavour – minus the unwelcome grease on the fingers. When Judy told me she would […]

I have known Ubi as an industrial estate for the longest time ever but when I got wind that it is also a roaster heaven with a good number of roast meat factories and suppliers around, I decided to venture into this godforsaken place and embark on my hunt for cheap and good roast duck […]

Muah chee is definitely one of my favourite childhood snacks because I can never resist that chewy glutinous rice dough coated with crunchy coarsely ground peanuts and sugar that is so aromatic and addictive. Ever since I started making my own version at home (really easy!), I hardly buy muah chee at pasar malams these […]

Before this bar’s existence in 2010, ‘KPO’ to most people probably referred to the Killiney Post Office that is located next to this bar today within the same building. KPO Cafe Bar is however not named after the post office. It’s located on the junction of Killiney, Penang and Orchard Road, hence the name. A […]

I had never liked vegetarian food that much years ago because the ones I had were either greasy or simply boring in terms of selections. Ever since I tried this vegetarian stall in Ang Mo Kio, I’ve changed my perception of vegetarian food that comes in a variety of our everyday local hawker fare dishes […]

Recently, I accepted an invitation for an interview with a food blog and I was asked to name three dishes that are classic Singapore cuisine. Chilli crab just naturally came to my mind, so did the craving. So the husband and I headed to Jumbo at The Riverwalk for some crabbing business. The last time I […]

I remember when I was little, Granny would sometimes buy orh luak (oyster omelette in Teochew) home for supper (only when she won at the mahjong table so supper was always a rare treat!) and it was one of the few foods that I didn’t know how to appreciate because I just didn’t like the […]

This satay bee hoon stall in Ang Mo Kio Central Food Market has been around for at least 25 years. I first had this when I was in primary school in the 1980s as my Granny was a big fan of it and she’d always bring me here then. I continued patronising this stall over […]

The husband and I were at City Square Mall over the weekend when we were attracted by this ‘row of shophouses’ on the 4th level of the mall that was filled with nostalgic charm. Indeed, this was a new concept by Food Republic to recreate the New World’s good old days when street hawkers on […]

After learning of this DoDo’s new product through its launch campaign a while back, I bought a can from the supermarket out of curiosity just to find out how DoDo fischeon would taste like as compared to luncheon meat. ‘Fischeon’ simply means ‘Fish Luncheon’. It is available in 3 flavours: Original, Cheese and Black Pepper […]

My husband and I felt a little peckish after buying CNY cookies from Galicier Confectionery so we decided to head to the nearby Tiong Bahru Market for a quick bite. As I was skimming around the food centre, this particular stall’s colourful signboard caught my eye which I thought was perfect since we just wanted […]

If you’ve been to Adam Road Food Centre, you’d probably have noticed the endlessly long queue for their nasi lemak. Selera Rasa has won numerous accolades and awards for being the best nasi lemak stall in Singapore and till today, I still think their nasi lemak has consistently maintained its high standard. Its second outlet […]
