I realised that the title has made my post not so family-friendly but who are we kidding really? You’d need to censor the whole internet for the kids to not learn any colourful language. The song is all I can think of while I was trying to type this post up. I might have been…
Beef Rendang with Modified Lemang
Another long weekend has come to an end for the Malaysians and I trust that you have enjoyed the Raya celebrations, or for the non-Muslims, enjoyed holidays. I don’t have any close Malay friends in KL, so my Raya celebration involved a lot of cooking and spending time with half my family, namely my mother…
Teochew Style Steamed Halibut
Hello!! I’m back from Melbourne and it was a whirlwind trip! Rehearsals, catch ups, filming, studio recording and managed to sneak a few glasses of wine in between. Needless to say, I ate tons of food (which will be blogged about in due time). To those who complain about the miserable cold weather, you might…
Waku Waku
Waku Waku (apparently means Tremble in Japanese, can anyone clarify?) is another newish Japanese restaurant situated in Midvalley Megamall. This restaurant has been on my radar after seeing Sean‘s blog about their Nasi Lemak Jepun. Altering a traditional recipe can be risky but I applaud them for giving it a go. Though I think my…
Ali, Muthu and Ah Hock
If you have been to Tom, Dick and Harry’s Pub in Scott’s Garden or Taman Tun Dr Ismail, you’ll be delighted to hear that they have recently added yet another outlet to their belt. The name is rather amusing and clever at the same time as they have used the common names of the 3…
Warm Apple-Cornmeal Upside-down Cake
I kept my promise and managed to join in the Bake Along #30, hosted by Joyce of Kitchen Flavours, Lena of Her Frozen Wings and Zoe of Bake for Happy Kids. This time it’s a specific recipe: Warm Apple-Cornmeal Upside-down Cake from Bon Appetit. You’ll be seeing all different renditions of this cake popping up around the blogs soon! Honestly…
Wagyu Beef Bulgogi Stew
Last weekend was an eventful one. We attended our dear friend Kris Kim‘s debut piano concert at KLPac and was immensely proud of him. Just brilliant. There were also long intense rehearsals for a gig we played on Saturday. The gig itself was, umm, different. Can’t say I’ve enjoyed that venue so much as the…
Craft Bakers
Craft Bakers is a little bakery/cafe situated in Solaris Dutamas (just next door to Urban e Fresco). It produces mainly English and European type bread and other baked goods. Opened its door to the masses in February 2011, it already has a sizeable following, and some customers even willing to travel across the town for…
Foochow Braised Fried Noodles (Chao Zhu Mian)
This is another dish that I grew up eating in Bintulu, Sarawak. I remember having them in school canteens. Now and then when I go back to Bintulu I’d order one… well, after I had my Kampua mee and Sarawak Laksa of course. I was in Bintulu for a few days back in March this…
Five Spice Braised Soy Sauce Chicken Mini Pies
If you were wondering how come there’s a sudden increase in Chicken Pies’ photos in your facebook stream, or instagram it’s because this week’s Bake Along‘s theme is Chicken Pie. This is my first time participating in the challenge and I hope I will be diligent enough to continue. Most chicken pies have all-too-common leek, mushrooms…
