This is a question I get asked a lot: “How do you manage your time with so many things on your plate?”. My typical answer would be “Well, I don’t think about it, I just go about finishing my tasks and doing what I have to do to make myself happy.” The second most common…

Moon Kee (Section 17) Fishhead and Seafood Noodles
Ahhh… Fish Head Noodles again! You’d think I’d be sick of it by now having cooked the same dish several times for the last couple of weeks just so I can share a good recipe with you. I don’t even remember the last time I’ve actually visited a “Kopitiam” for Fish Head Noodles, but when…
MFF KL Selangor: Fish Head (Fillet) Noodles
Sunday afternoon, alone at home, knackered from all the exciting activities all week (catering for 50 pax is probably something I will think harder before committing next time), what better than a soothing bowl of noodles with soup? That was my lunch today and it sure hit all the right spots. This is something that…
Singapore Get-away featuring Gordon Ramsay
I love spontaneity and due to the nature of my schedule, it’s hard to find time for a getaway. But I suppose I just need a little spark of motivation to make that decision and 2 weeks ago, I did precisely that. When I heard from KY that Gordon Ramsay was doing the cook-off against…
KL Selangor MFF: Chilli Pan Mee
The final leg of Malaysian Food Fest see us at the most densely populated Klang Valley and not surprisingly, offers one of the largest range of cuisines.

Sabah MFF: Tuaran Mee
The first time I’ve ever heard about Tuaran Mee was through a random conversation with my band’s keyboadist, who’s from Sabah. One thing that I’ve always been proud of is that our band represents 1 Malaysia, though that’s a story for another day I guess. Anyway, I did a little research and found Terri’s recipe…
Ang Jiu (Foochow Red Wine) Chicken Soup with Mee Sua
A break from the fishy posts (though I’m glad you like the recipes) and here I present the ultimate comfort food: Chicken Soup. Not just your regular Chicken boiled with ginger and mushrooms, but with homemade Foochow Red Wine. That’s right, the bright hue might be a little confronting but most Sarawakians (or Sitiawan foochows)…
