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….

Le Midi, BSC

I have to admit that I have never heard of Le Midi until I got the invitation to sample their new menu, and I will tell you that I’m kicking myself for that, as the food there is definitely worth visiting more than a couple of times. Especially now that a new chef with impressive…

La Mexicana, Terrace at Hock Choon

It’s always heartening to see a restaurant striving to provide a great dining experience for their customers. La Mexicana, owned by Mexican Chef Carmela and her husband Stephen, opened up at Terrace at Hock Choon in late 2012, has been fulfilling the void for authentic Mexican food, serving locals and expats alike. When it comes…

After residing in London for years, Ben Yeong and Toto Ooi returned to Malaysia 12 years ago and opened Café Café. Back then, fine-dining restaurants in Klang Valley were few and far in between. That was to change. Café Café is as romantic as it gets, with a combination of old world charm and a…

EcoGreen Organic, TTDI

Besides the abundant watering holes and hipster coffee joints in Taman Tun Dr Ismail, a hidden gem worth visiting is EcoGreen, an organic restaurant which has been around to provide healthier choices for diners. As most of us would have indulged a little bit over the festive period; it’s now time to treat our bodies…

Essence, Sheraton Imperial KL, the Place to Explore Variety

Buffet dining has just gotten more exciting at Essence, Sheraton Imperial KL’s Signature restaurant. Instead of plonking tonnes of food on bain-marie and call it a day, we can now watch their Chefs in action at the various live cooking stations. As the saying goes, “we eat with our eyes”, the visual drama and theatrics…

Cauliflower Crust Pizza

I’m starting to think that I’m eating way too much cauliflower. I’m using it as rice, replacing potato in hash, faux-potato mash, and even faux ‘English Muffin’, while at the same time I also quite like it as a side dish anyway. But I think this recipe might just be the ultimate as it ticks…

AFF HK/Macau – Macanese Minchee

Hong Kong and Macau double month for Asian Food Fest has been going on since January, so I’m super late with my entry. It’s mainly because I couldn’t find an appropriate recipe suitable for my current diet. My favourite food in Hong Kong has to be Wanton noodles, followed by Dim Sum. Naturally, all grain…
