Mie Akong, Jakarta

Travelling with a food lover often leads to interesting discoveries, especially when that person happens to drive in a foreign country.

Sin Kee, Brickfields

My in-laws have been patronising Sin Kee Restaurant for more than 30 years, and claims the place serve decent Hainanese chicken chop, sambal prawns and “mun fan”. Not surprising, rif likes coming here occasionally because he practically grew up eating the food at Sin Kee. I was introduced to this place...

Beijing

As a somewhat frequent traveller, I’d like to think I’ve been to quite a few countries and cities in the world – mostly Europe since I was studying in the UK. In the past two years or so, I started travelling in South East Asia and my most recent trip was to Beijing over the [...]

Sydney Fish Market

One of my favourite places in Sydney is the fish market – an oyster and seafood haven. Basically, you can get the freshest catch under one roof. I went gaga when I first stepped in; from oysters to lobsters to salmon, everything looked so good. I visited the Sydney Fish Market twice – once with [...]

Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong by Matrix

L’Oreal Malaysia sent me a set of Biolage Advanced Fiberstrong products by Matrix to try and after one month of usage, I noticed quite a difference in what they did to my hair.

Sakae Sushi used to be one of my favourite places to go to for reasonable Japanese food. When it was in Bangsar Village (now Senjyu) I dined there at least 3-4 times a month. Even back then, they were ahead of all the other Japanese chain restaurants when it came to technology and new menu [...]

Medan Selera Tengkera, Melaka

I have this liking for the char kuay teow in Melaka, simply because it comes with a side of sweet sauce. This is an acquired taste for many and even rif, a Peranakan, isn’t a big fan. I’ve only tried it at Medan Selera Tengkera in Melaka and I’ve been getting my fix here whenever [...]
