Weekend brunches have always been a favourite of mine – a pick-me-up that I look forward to after the end of a work week. It is also a welcomed habit when I’m on vacation, like the weekend brunch I enjoyed at Ebony, Mandarin Oriental Guangzhou. For RMB388 per person, Ebony’s brunch offers a selection...
We did not eat out all the time, firstly it is quite costly and secondly, most of the food are sort of "fattening" too... my sons prefer homecooked food anytime especially they have been "deprived" from them for a doubly long time already. So ... most mornings, my girl and I will do some...
On Saturday we entered into Singapore again, this time my son drove in. Since it is a weekend, there is no VEP charge... *oh, don't ask me what VEP is, I just repeat what I heard* But of course, there would be other charges other than that, on both ways, going and coming out from Singapore. There is...
There’s just something about ramen that I find appealing – springy noodles in thick pork broth, laced with sesame oil and topped with meltingly tender pork slices. Just the thought of it makes me salivate. While I haven’t tried every single ramen bar in town, I do have a few favourites such as Bankara...
Aaron took one day off to "teach" us how to take the causeway bus from our area to Singapore... The bus comes in every fifteen minutes from Giant Supermarket, very convenient and it cost only RM5 for one way. It was around 11.30am when we parked our car here and in less than ten minutes, the...
Each day we go out around 11am for our first meal... it is neither breakfast nor lunch. Too late to take breakfast and too early for lunch thus the word "brunch" is invented just nice for late "wakers" like us. More or less we save a meal each day, instead of taking three meals, we take only two main...
Our first breakfast the next morning was just my girl and I.. the night before, my sons showed us how to come by the shops here for food, otherwise both of us would be eating just maggi noodles if we do not know the way. And that will not be good for us....When it comes to directions, I am quite...
By the time we reached Johor, it was almost dinner time! We quickly unloaded all our stuff in the living hall and set out to fill our hungry tummies! As my son drove, he showed me all the shops that serve food during the daytime... since they are working during the day, I need to know how to get...

I had never traveled out of town before during CNY but this year is quite different. This is the first year that my mom is not around to celebrate CNY with the family. Without her during this festive time, the feeling is just not the same anymore. Something is still missing and it looks like we siblings...
Prasads Chetty Naadu Mess in Lebuh Ampang is one of my more unusual banana leaf rice experiences thus far — a hole in the wall above the goldsmith shop along Lebuh Ampang. Getting there is a little tricky, for the entrance is rather hidden. You need to spot Prasad’s goldsmith shop first, where...

Nak tahu detail, boleh check blog kucingorengemok.Memang masa tu lebih kurang pukul 9.30 pagi, so memang dah ramai. Tak ada tempat duduk yang available so kenalah tunggu. So kalau...
Now mom is not around, I will make it a point to visit the eldest sibling from this year onwards... We siblings may be busy with our own family matters day in and day out that we do not have time to gather with one another on normal days. I feel that it is important to have a family reunion ....
Chinese New Year Eve is today... Wednesday 18.2.2015.Started the day by waking up as early as 9am and out from the house by 11.30 to have the first meal of the day in Hollywood, Canning Garden... Everything was sold out by then except for the Indian curry rice. No mind... good to have rice that would...
They worked hard during the day... My two "hunks" vacuumed the whole house, took down all the curtains (cos mom is not tall enough!) cleaned the ceiling fan (singular)... window panes... mopped the floor... all the tasks that the mom dislikes doing... hahahaa... all these tasks done after a hearty dim sum...
When we visited Taiwan last May, one of the counties we went to was Hualien – the largest in Taiwan. I wanted to visit this county for the “black pebbles” beach, better known as Qixintan Beach, and also for the food which I heard was one of the best among counties. Our driver and guide [...] The post...
The Makan Brothers are Back!With them around, I can easily gain a kilo or two... no, I am not worrying... at my age, it is "nice" to have a bit more flesh here and there.. *self-consoling* We woke up quite early this morning ... 10am... and by 11, we reached the cleanest market, ie the Canning...

Frame Thai in Section 17 (formerly known as Lai Thai Market) boasts a steady stream of customers – a restaurant/mini mart in Happy Mansion that serves Thai street food and goodies from Thailand. I heard from friends that it started out as a sundry shop selling Thai snacks and food for the homesick, and...
