Women on bicycles (like the one pictured above) with baskets of donuts. Women walking down the streets with baskets of donuts. Whenever they spot tourists, they would enthusiastically approach them to […]

Initially I thought that was just a name, as in a shop name, but I realised later that kefir is actually a yogurt-like cultured drink that’s popular in Eastern and Northern Europe. […]

Loong Fatt Tau Sar Piah @ Balestier Road – Possibly The Best Tau Sar Piah in Singapore

Whenever I come to the Balestier area, I seldom leave here without getting a box of my favourite tau sar piah or 豆沙饼, a Chinese flaky pastry with green bean billing. I had tried the tau sar piah from several bakeries in the same neighbourhood. [Read my earlier blog post -> 603 Tau Sar Piah […]

Poh Cheu Handmade Ang Ku Kueh @ Bukit Merah Lane 1

The first place that comes to my mind when I think of good ang ku kueh (‘red tortoise cake’, a round or oval shaped Chinese-style pastry made of glutinous rice flour skin with a sweet filling) is actually not anywhere in Singapore but Season Bakery in Johor Bahru. My mum loves their ang ku kueh a […]

Teochew Meat Puff – Oyster Cakes Not To Be Missed

A few weeks back on Instagram, my foodie friend A had recommended and highly raved about this oyster cake she got from the pasar malam next to Causeway Point (nearest MRT is Woodlands).

Rolina Singapore Traditional Hainanese Curry Puff

Rolina used to be a bakery in Ang Mo Kio in the 80s and 90s, if my memory serves me right. I kinda remembered the times when I would pop by the shop after school to grab some afternoon tea time snacks and I didn’t know they actually specialised in curry puffs now until a […]

The oyster cake was one of Granny’s favourite deep-fried snacks in the 80s. I remembered they were very greasy but oh-so-delicious and addictive. They also had crunchy peanuts and crispy silver fish on top. Not really sure where Gran had bought the oyster cakes from or perhaps because they were more common back then so […]
