John and I love having wraps for dinner when we decide to just stay in on the weekend. Sometimes, we’d just buy a ready roasted chicken from the supermarket, some lettuce & tomatoes and a pack of tortilla wraps and that’d make a wholesome dinner for the both of us. For a change this time, […]
This is the last dish I’m featuring as part of my Tex-Mex feast for the husband. And it’s probably the most difficult recipe to write because I’m so fussy when it comes to handling tortilla wraps as I like mine crispy to a certain extent on both sides so I was pretty meticulous during preparation.

My husband often raves about the nachos served at Chilli’s that I decided to include it in my Tex-Mex feast for him. And I made such a huge portion that he not only had it for dinner, he had it cold for breakfast the next day! Oh man, he really ate like a king! But he […]

I remembered I was first introduced to Pu Tien several years back by my ‘PK mum’ (an endearing term for a friend who calls me PK aka Pumpkin) as she was raving about its Lor Mee. In my mind, Lor Mee has always been a bowl of thick flat yellow noodles in a thick, dark […]
An eventful National Day indeed. John and I had initially planned to hang around the Marina Bay area, enjoy a good dinner and then go for the fireworks display last night but instead of doing as planned, we were in Khoo Teck Puat Hospital A&E for the entire afternoon as my father was admitted for […]
