Some months back, I attended a cooking workshop conducted by Chef Ronald Li, head chef of Salt Tapas & Bar where I got the chance to see him whip up some delicious brunch comfort food. This time, I was back for a tasting session following the launch of their new brunch menu. Located at Raffles […]
Those we love don’t go away they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near, so loved, so missed so very dear. Picking myself up after losing two loved ones within a few weeks is probably one of the hardest things to do in life. And it feels almost impossible when one of […]
Some weeks back, I reviewed Seasonal Salad Bar that used to occupy this same unit space above KFC at Toa Payoh Central. After it shifted to a new location next to Courts, then came Krazy Salads which is like the 4th salad bar tenant of the same premise since Sizzler. The husband and I walked […]
I got the idea to make this soup after seeing a soup pack being sold in the supermarket for the same recipe so I sort of estimated the amount of ingredients needed for it and bought them separately for this. I was curious as to why this particular soup was considered a lung nourishing one […]
This is probably the most unconventionaI but also easiest method to whip up a quick and healthy vegetable curry by using tomatoes as the base.

I made a creamy and thick roasted garlic peppercorn sauce to go with the beef just like how it would be like having the same in a restaurant that’s usually served with a flavoursome sauce too. Instead of having any carbs, I […]
On the previous occasion when the husband and I came to the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park for fish feeding (an excellent way to use up those day-old bread if not eating them), we spotted some interesting trees at Bishan Park 1 surrounding the playground area which produced cones that resembled the Christmassy ones. This particular […]
I came up with this dish after getting some cooking inspiration from a home-cooked meal at a friend’s house some weeks back. She had cooked this stuffed cucumber soup in which minced pork and prawns were used for the stuffing but for my version, I opted for minced chicken, glass noodles and Chinese mushrooms. Instead […]
