Losing Weight Through Ketogenic Diet and Intermittent Fasting I read up and watched a lot of videos on the ketogenic diet and decided to try it myself which I managed to do so for almost 3 months. Combined it with intermittent fasting so I only ate 2 meals a day within a 5-hour window and […]

Penne Carbonara Recipe (No Cream)

Whenever I’m dining at a pasta place, I will almost always order carbonara without fail. Just because I don’t adore tomato-based pasta as much, lol. Pasta carbonara is like classic comfort food. Creamy, cheesy and eggy. So sinful but oh so delicious. 😀 The ones that I’m talking about are the ‘wet’ kind of carbonara […]

Made Maggi Goreng today because the hubby had requested for it. It’s one of his favourite dishes to order at any mamak stall as he loves instant noodles. On the other hand, I’m not a big fan of Maggi Goreng as I prefer instant noodles on their own but I don’t mind having Mee Goreng every […]

One of the best highlights of my Hanoi trip was eating this amazing Vietnamese porridge by the roadside near my hotel. It’s called Chao Suon Sun which means ‘pork ribs & cartilage porridge’.
