In Part 1 of this post (click here to read), I had reviewed NamNam Noodle Bar’s Vietnamese pho. While the pho was good and worth returning for, what got me hooked are their Banh Mi or toasted baguettes stuffed with savoury meats, pate, mayo, chilli peppers, pickled carrots, daikon, cucumber and coriander. It is incredible […]
I love soupy noodles and Vietnamese pho (soupy rice flour noodles) is just one of my favourites especially when I crave for something piping hot yet light on the palates. I’ve had good ones in Viet restaurants in the States and my mother-in-law makes really good pho too so I am quite particular when it […]
I love cheese! If you adore cheese as much as I do, I’m sure you’d like this easy cheddar pasta dish which is quick to make and just tastes so wonderfully rich and cheesy. I was just being greedy because 250g of grated cheddar is really A LOT for a 2 persons’ serving but I […]
This is the third time I am reviewing Rive Gauche because it’s really one of the few patisseries in Singapore that I go to frequently for my sugar fix. Read my previous review here. This time round, the husband brought home these two delightful treats to cheer me up as I was feeling a little […]
I always wondered why this dish was known as “Three Cups Chicken” before I tried it for the first time. I even thought that probably the original recipe calls for 3-cup portions of chicken which I’m wrong of course. The dish derives its name from three different cups of sauces, mainly soy sauce, rice wine […]
I seldom visit the Golden Mile Complex but when I do, it’s because I need something from the Thai supermarket on 2nd level which houses many made-in-Thailand products ranging from snacks, sauces, condiments, fresh spices and herbs for cooking Thai cuisine. If you’re a big fan of sriracha (Thai hot sauce), you’d be spoilt for […]
Those residing in Ang Mo Kio are probably very familiar with this popular carrot cake stall at the hawker centre in Ang Mo Kio Central that only sells the white crispy version. It is located next to my favourite drinks stall (read my previous review here) that serves up one of the best home-made ice […]
I made wonton noodles over the weekend and had a few bundles of egg noodles left in the fridge so I paired the noodles with some roasted chicken drumsticks for a complete new dish. The marinate sauce for the noodles is the same as what I’d do for the dry wonton noodles, simply by using […]
Palais Renaissance in Orchard Road is probably on one of the less busy stretches of the area. I only frequented this particular place during my school days in the 90s when I was working part time at a Brit company located in Orchard Towers and the office manager would sometimes treat me to lunch at […]
