Sutchi fish is one of my preferred white fish as it has a mild flavour and doesn’t have a fishy or muddy smell despite it being a freshwater fish. Besides being really affordable and cheap, the sutchi fish with a firm texture is very suitable for pan-frying, baking or even stir-frying. Here are a few […]
Update Nov 2015: This cafe has closed. The husband and I had an enjoyable Indian vegetarian lunch at Upper Dickson Road and decided to take a walk in the vicinity when we spotted this retro-looking cafe along Dunlop Street, just beside Zsofi Tapas Bar. Needless to say, it was the decor that really caught my eye as […]
Recently I had been trying to experiment with different combinations of fruits and vegetables to make a variety of healthy sides just so I wouldn’t have to repeat the usual. Inspired by my favourite parma ham and rockmelon pairing, I just wondered if the melon would go with a simple pan-fried chicken breast. Seemed really plain especially when […]
I was on my way to Ikea Alexandra to hunt for a shoe rack when I decided to stop by ABC market for brunch. I’d heard about Wow Wow West a long while back but hadn’t been back to try it yet and I was quite surprised to see the stall open that early. Having Western […]
One of the best salted egg paus (‘steamed buns’) I ever had was actually bought from the chilled section of the supermarket.

The husband asked if I would attempt to make hamburgers after stocking up on so much minced beef recently and that gave me an idea to reinvent my Meatballs with Gravy Recipe into a hamburger steak instead. For this recipe, I didn’t cook the patties in the oven as that might just dry them out so I […]
People who work around Sin Ming area would probably know this really popular braised duck rice stall. I was introduced to this stall years ago by a colleague and had been here numerous times for lunch. Every time, I would see a long queue of customers at lunch time. But this braised duck rice stall is one that’s worth […]
I was at the library looking up some low-GI cook books and found this interesting Pork with Chickpeas & Orange Recipe which I thought of making for dinner. The original recipe uses canned chopped tomatoes and dried chilli but I substituted them with fresh tomatoes and chilli flakes. Also added extra ketchup and sweet chilli […]
Right after Baker Talent opened for business at Ang Mo Kio Central, I spotted another new bakery Yuen Long Hong Kong Pastry & Buns just diagonally across which always has a queue of patrons whenever I pass by. Not a bad thing actually. It just means we have more choices of bakeries in the town central now. The husband […]
