I’ve briefly talked about SGMY in my earlier blog post on ORTO last week (read ORTO @ Lorong Chencharu (Yishun) and my latest fad, prawning). It’s actually an alfresco, no-frills bistro that’s located just next to the prawning ponds. When I first heard of ‘SGMY’, I really thought it was an abbreviation of a longer […]
Could this be the end to my hair woes? I certainly hope so. Sometimes I just feel so gutted about my hair because ever since my hair got damaged by perm solution when Gran took me to a home-based hairdresser to get my hair permed when I was 9 years old, my hair just started […]
Some of you might not have heard of ORTO but the name ‘Bottle Tree Park’ might just ring a bell. ORTO (means ‘garden’ or ‘orchard’ in Italian) is a new leisure park that has now taken over the site of former Bottle Tree Park in Yishun (about 8-10 minutes walk from Khatib MRT Station). The […]
I love Nando’s not because their flame-grilled chicken is out of this world but because their peri-peri sauces are just amazing. They are robust in flavour, spicy, tangy, piquant and sweet – everything that’s needed to make a piece of chicken tasty. When I was at Mustafa Centre the other day looking out for interesting buys, I […]
I love curries – be it Chinese, Indian, Nonya or Japanese style. It makes a great one-pot meal with intensely robust flavours and the gravy just goes so well with rice, crusty bread or any noodles. Normally when I cook Japanese curry at home, I’d only use chicken as the base. For a change, I […]
There’s nothing better than having a cheat day to emotionally satisfy our craving which is something that the husband and I always look forward to. So what’s cooking up today? Crispy and crunchy, deep-fried wontons! This recipe is similar to my soupy wonton recipe except that I have used pork instead of chicken and more prawns […]
Ever since I started making my own roast pork at home, I no longer buy or eat those from roast meat stalls. Sometimes, the outside ones might have a higher ratio of fat to meat, could be too salty or cold and soggy because it was left hanging out for too long. Like freshly baked […]
Today I’m sharing a Seafood Prosperity Pot Recipe which is my rendition of a 海鲜一品锅 that you could get from most tze char stalls in Singapore. This is a dish that’s favoured by my folks because there are so many ingredients in it especially vegetables and is overall, healthy and non-greasy. Seafood Prosperity Pot Recipe Ingredients […]
It’s Mother’s Day today and I just want to wish all mummies in the world a very happy day! I can never have enough of creamy pasta. It’s a dish that I can make in bulk, chill in fridge and have it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and sometimes, supper. Haha. You may think, ‘OMG, this […]
