Topshelf, TTDI

Taman Tun Dr Ismail is well known for its many watering holes (including the infamous Sid’s, of course) and hipster coffee joints. But behind the busy Lorong Rahim Kajai 14, there is a lovely French restaurant called Topshelf, run by Chef Christopher and Hairenna, a friendly duo who is passionate about food and hospitality. I have…

Massaged Kale Salad

Everytime I come across a Kale recipe on Youtube or blog, I feel a pang of envy because I have never been able to find that in KL. And to be honest this nature’s superfood was not on my radar when I was still living in Oz, as it hasn’t gained such a huge popularity…

Liposonix with Dr Alice

Whenever my friends and I get together, one topic that comes up everytime (apart from food) would be fitness. Most of my girlfriends are very much into fitness and some of them are dedicated runners (I’m looking at you, Eve and Umei). While I’m not too bad at managing my diet (paleo at home, eating…

Midi 57, Jalan Bangkung

After a great review session at Le Midi, I didn’t hesitate to accept the invitation for another session at the more casual Midi 57 at Jalan Bangkung. Also headed by very talented Chef Alimenti, the menu here is completely different as to cater for the drinking crowd. The ambience here is very relaxed with warm…

New Zealand Natural, Sunway Pyramid

I used to live right next to my uni in Melbourne. And those who are studying or have studied in Melbourne Uni would have taken the advantage of the “Italian street” just a few minutes walk away. Lygon street holds many fantastic memories for me and that’s where I discover the joy of devouring gelato…

Paradise Inn, Sunway Pyramid

Sunway Pyramid isn’t somewhere I frequent due to the distance (and laziness, mostly to sit through the traffic), but the month of April is extra tempting with their World of Cravings campaign. During this month, there is a special promotion for different restaurant each day and diners get to join contests to win attractive prizes….

Cauliflower Fried Rice

I have never been a fan of fried rice, but lately, I think I’m addicted. Not just original fried rice of course, and you guessed it: Fried “Cauli Rice” or Cauliflower Fried Rice. Whatever it’s called, there is no actual rice in this, and the grain is replaced by grated or pulsed cauliflower, making this…

O’Galito Mediterranean Restaurant and Bar, Pavilion

O’Galito Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar is one of the new kids on the block at Pavilion Shopping Centre. Located in the busiest restaurant strip area of the shopping centre, this place has a buzzing feel to it. Equipped with an alfresco dining area and a large vibrant bar at the entrance, it attracts customers from…

Vanity Post: Benefit Agent Zero Shine Workshop

Wow, it sure has been some crazy weeks! I do apologise for the lack of recipe posts here, as I barely has time to cook for myself for the past month and have been sticking to simple frittata and soups for my meals. Here’s a fairly backdated post for Benefit, as I attended a small…

Top Hat Restaurant, Jalan Stonor

Top Hat Restaurant has been named one of the Malaysia’s Best Restaurants multiple times by Malaysian Tatler and it’s not difficult to see why. Set in a beautiful colonial bungalow at the crossroad of Jalan Kia Peng and Jalan Stonor, it’s prime location attracts loyal local fans as well as tourists and local embassy staff….
