Joining The Bravery and Windowsill In The Woods in the hipster hood of Jalan Besar on Horne Road is this new artisanal bakery cafe, Two Bakers which is helmed by two Le Cordon Bleu Paris trained pastry chefs. The cafe not only serves up delectable French & American pastries that are handcrafted and baked fresh daily but […]
Every now and then, I like to make a salad for dinner on the first or second weeknight especially after a weekend of non-stop indulgence which is all I crave to detoxify myself from inside out, lol. For this pasta salad recipe, I made a wholegrain mustard dressing that was inspired by a side salad I had […]
The husband was at Alexandra Village Food Centre for lunch one weekday when he decided to buy a muffin for dessert after his colleague highly recommended this particular stall. And merely a few days after, we came back on the weekend as he kept telling me how good the muffin was and that I should really […]
Hands up if you like luncheon meat! 🙂 Probably one of the most versatile canned meats that is just delicious on its own and almost never go wrong in any way we cook it. I was inspired by this sweet and sour luncheon meat dish from my favourite mixed veg rice stall and I thought of making it […]

Whenever I think about Chinese-style steamboats, specific locations like Bugis especially Liang Seah Street, Tan Quee Lan Street and Beach Road will just come to mind. Having worked in that area previously, I had the chance to try out many of the steamboat restaurants in the vicinity as work often ended late so eating out […]
Besides the usual lotus root pork rib soup, the husband would often order this chicken mushroom soup from one of our favourite soup places at Ang Mo Kio Central. Hence when I decided to cook up a chicken daikon soup the other day, I thought of adding some dried chinese mushrooms into it to give […]
