Last Tuesday at Neverland, WeChat, a mobile phone chat app, threw a big party for a large group of bloggers from all walks of life. It was to officiate the launch of their new local TV commercial, featuring 2 Malaysian personalities Lisa Surihani & Shaheizy Sam. If you own a smartphone, you have probably heard…
Ayam Percik Kelantan (MFF Kelantan)
As promised, I’m back with a recipe. And this one is a doozy, featuring one of the most versatile protein, chicken. Specifically, the thighs (well, legs). The breast lovers can divert your attention now (or make the substitution if you want). There must be over a hundred way to cook Chicken thighs, even in Malaysia…
Vanity Trove April Edition: The Shower of Summer
You might have noticed that the cooking posts have decreased recently, and you are not just being paranoid. I haven’t stopped cooking, but I’ve been eating very simple meals involving whole fruits and vegetables. At most, I’ll throw a combination of vegetables into the pot to make soup (not nearly exciting enough). But don’t worry,…
Burger Junkyard, Kota Damansara
Kota Damansara is somewhere I visit quite a lot due to my gigs/rehearsals, but apart from the odd visits to Super Kitchen Chili Pan Mee, I’ve never eaten at other places. There are actually quite a lot of interesting outlets and Burger Junkyard is one of the newer additions to grace the neighbourhood. Yes, the…
Mercedes-Benz, STYLO, Kronenbourg 1664 L’Aperitif Fashion
The Mercedes-Benz Stylo Fashion Grand Prix 2013 is now done and dusted. I had the pleasure to attend the day 4 event “Not Les Misérables” with a french chic theme, held at Aloft Kuala Lumpur, a new chic hotel in town. As this was also a collaboration with Kronenbourg 1664, it’s only fitting that the…
Future Music Festival Asia 2013 at Sepang International Circuit
Even though I’ve lived in Melbourne for over 10 years, I have never once been to a Music festival. After partying for 2 days at Future Music Festival Asia 2013 held in Sepang International Circuit, I finally understood why these outdoor parties are so popular and even addictive. Truth to be told, I wouldn’t have…
Spanakopita (Spinach and Feta) Turnovers
Ask any ordinary home baker what their biggest fear is and you’ll probably hear puff pastry most often. In fact, most Chefs don’t make puff pastry from scratch, as good frozen version is readily available anyway. After succeeding in shortcrust pastry, I’ve been promising myself to tackle puff pastry at home for the longest time….
Beautiful Surprises – Vanity Trove March Edition
Several weeks ago, I received an email from Vanity Trove asking me if I would be interested to check out the March Edition of their beauty box. Well, I’m a not-so-closet beauty addict and love trying out new products without having to buy the full-sized items straightaway. Of course, I had to say yes! The…
Roti Jala (Lacy Net Crepes) with Vegetable Curry
Oh my! I have not been so knackered for a long time (equivalent to about 3 x 14 hours shift in the hospital I think)! The 2-day Future Music Festival Asia partying has really worn me out but I’ve never had so much fun. Will blog about it soon. It’s funny how the first time…
Baked Egg in Mushroom Tartlets (Delia Smith)
I’m a little embarrassed to say that I’ve never heard of Delia Smith (English Cook/TV Presenter) prior to this Cook Like a Star bloghop event. And after browsing through her website deliaonline.com I’ve decided that I love this woman. Her recipes are simple, straight forward but attractive and nourishing at the same time. There are…
