Islandish Family Seafood Restaurant became our go-to spot during our recent Langkawi trip. We usually stick to eating at PARKROYAL Langkawi Resort or ordering Grab deliveries, but this time we wanted something different. A quick Google search led us here, and the 10-minute Grab ride was totally worth it. Location and First Impressions The restaurant […]

If you’ve read my earlier post on PARKROYAL Langkawi Resort, you’ll know how much I enjoyed my first stay here. Well, I couldn’t resist coming back again. Instead of repeating the same experience, I decided to switch things up with a different room category – the Premier Ocean View Room. Spoiler: it felt like a […]

Sizzle by the Shore at PARKROYAL Langkawi Resort delivers one of those dining experiences that sticks with you long after you’ve left.

We were heading to Langkawi (our second trip in a year – […]

I originally went there hunting for ruan gao – those soft, mochi-like glutinous rice rolls my mum used to buy for prayers when I was a kid. But once I got there, the sight of freshly made Chinese Teochew traditional pastries sitting […]

Shu Yan Sichuan Cuisine has been sitting pretty on my food bucket list ever since I spotted it trending on RedNote. The buzz around their weekday lunch buffet got me curious. After a solid experience at Xiao He Shan‘s similar setup at Grantral Mall, I figured it was time to give this Chinatown Point spot […]
