How do you feel about the partial relaxation of the MCO? For those who are not in Malaysia, today is the re-opening of our economical sectors, meaning most shops and businesses are back in operation, with the exception of schools, entertainment services, hair/beauty saloons and several other less essential services. While some of us have…

Teochew Style Boiled Baby Octopus
I’m not the most confident when it comes to cooking seafood, that’s why we seldom do that at home. Even if we do, the cleaning and prepping would be done by Kevin because well, Seafood anatomy is largely foreign to me. However, after cooking beef and pork for 40 days, the routine just needs to…
Tomato Braised Pork Ribs
I’ve finally stopped procrastinating and start updating this blog (Has it really been 6 months since my last post?!). I hope everyone’s doing ok, considering the scary situation we are in now, fighting the Covid-19 as a Pandemic. Here in Malaysia, we are in the third week of our Movement Control Order. We have been…
Low Carb Pork Belly with Preserved Mustard Greens (Mui Choy Kau Yoke)
Two Pork Belly recipes in a row, I’m really not kidding when I said it’s my favourite. Us Chinese sure have a lot of wonderful recipes when it comes to cooking this wonderful piece of meat. From the tip of the tongue, there are Tau Yew Bak (Braised Soy Souce Pork Belly), Siew Yoke (of…
Sous Vide Siew Yoke
Words are not enough to describe how much I love pork belly. And most people would agree that Siew Yoke (literally translates to roast meat) is the best way to showcase Pork Belly, with the Crispy skin, melt-in-your-mouth fat layer and juicy meat, simply flavoured with salt, pepper and five-spice powder. But to achieve the…

Ever since we’ve gone low carb, Dim Sum is no longer as fun as it used to be. So what would I do if I were to eat dim sum for a food review? Bring along a partner who can take it for the team and only touch the meat and vegetables haha. Anyway we…
Lan Jie style Steamed Tilapia with Panasonic Cubie Oven
If you come into my kitchen, you might assume that I’m a gadget geek. Well, it wouldn’t be too far from the truth as we had to clear out a good portion of our kitchen to welcome the newest member, and joining my long list of high tech kitchen appliances is the Panasonic Cubie Oven….

Ruyi & Lyn, Bangsar Shopping Centre
Ever since Ruyi & Lyn opened its door to the masses back in June 2015, it sure has gotten people talking. I’m sure some of you might have seen their signature Nasi Lemak sushi which is essentially miniature nasi lemak served as a sushi. Yes, this provides a glimpse of what this place is about….
Pork and Kimchi Cauliflower Fried Rice
My love for Fried Cauliflower Rice runs for at least 2 years deep. Some of you might remember my old post from 2014 for a basic version, or a Nasi Tomato adaptation (along with a cooking video! I must attempt that again soon). But because I have well and truly fallen off the Paleo bandwagon, this has…
