A few weeks ago, we were invited to Frontera Sol de Mexico, a Tex-mex restaurant situated in Jaya One, Petaling Jaya. We’ve actually been to Frontera quite a few times, as I’ve previously performed there with my band. But this time, we had Mr Jesus Luz, a representative of Conservas La Costena in the Asia…

Linzer Torte with a Lovely Twist
It’s been a while since I participated in the Bake Along challenge, hosted by hosted by Joyce from Kitchen Flavours and Lena from Frozen wings and Zoe from Bake for Happy Kids. The theme this time is intriguing, at least to me. I’ve never heard of Linzer Tart before, and when I consulted Dr Google, it gave me Linzer cookies! Turns…
MFF Kedah: Nasi Daging Kedah & Air Asam Tomato
When it comes to regional dishes in Malaysia, I’m afraid my knowledge doesn’t go beyond Sarawak (of course), Sabah, KL/Selangor, Penang, Malacca, and thanks to the MFF, quite a little bit of Terrangganu. Malaysian Food Fest is such a great ‘online’ event for a lot of us to get to know what the people in…
Healthy Nasi Lemak (Well, Almost)
Before I blog about the final of the Nutriplus Pastry Competition, I shall contribute a recipe as it’s been a while. Thank you all so much for your lovely messages on the last post, it’s very heartening to see as some of you I haven’t even met in real life. I love how food brings…
Think Out of the Shell: The NutriPlus Pastry Competition Semi Final
First of all, I would like to apologize for the lack of updates on this space. I’ve been preoccupied with several commitments, one of which was the NutriPlus Pastry Competition. You see, several weeks ago, Veronica of Quay Po Cooks contacted me to submit a recipe for a pastry competition. Pastry? I can’t remember the…
Lemon and Tarragon Roast Chicken with Three Vegs
The constant drilling from the neighbours have left us a pretty hefty sleep debt. It’s a little better now this week but they are still hammering away. It must be my luck: my previous neighbour in Melbourne was pretty noisy too. Anyway…. I guess I haven’t been cooking many interesting dishes lately due to lethargy….
Not Your Average Carrot Cake
As of yesterday, I’ve turned 29. The very last year of my 20s *shudders*. Where’s that time machine when I need it? The only consolation is that my birthday celebrations seem to get better every year! True enough, I had a fabulous time with a bunch of crazy, fun loving people. Though I’ll say my…
Beef Moussaka
It’s looking to be a very busy weekend ahead again. I’ll be performing at Savory Bistro in Mont Kiara on Friday, and on Saturday attending the biggest Oktoberfest Party in KL at One Utama. In the process of planning my small birthday thingy too. At this rate, I’ll probably just have it at Sid’s. I’m…
Happy Birthday, Frank!
Before I talk about Frank’s birthday and what I cooked for him for dinner, here’s another reason this post is special: It’s the 100th post! *Raise a toast* I’m glad I came back to blogging, not only it motivates me to be cooking more, I also value the friendships that blossomed through food. To you…
Sarawak MFF: Kacangma (Motherwort) Chicken / Arthur’s day Celebration at Sid’s Pub.
The social scene in KL has been rather busy lately. Of course, in the midst of all the Pre-arthur’s day celebrations, and several launches of new outlets, the Oktoberfest and Malaysia International Gourmet Festival (MIGF) are both about to take off as well. It’s no wonder we are swamped with events to attend for the…
