Baked eggs can be enjoyed in various ways; some eat it with prosciutto, some with cream and cheesewhile I like mine with a little bit of spinach (and everything else). While I like to think I’ve mastered the art of making baked eggs, it’s good to explore the options available outside of home –...
For someone whos born and bred in Bangsar, I thought doing a Top 10 Food to Eat in Bangsar would be easy. After all, I know most of the neighborhood like the back of my hand. Or so I thought. But what I soon realised was how much more difficult it is to come up [...] The post Top 10 Food to Eat in...
When I visited Taiwan last May, a good friend recommended that I try Charmonix should I get tired of street food. I shrugged his suggestion off initially, thinking that wasnt going to happen. He was right as I got really homesick by the 5th day and the thought of XXL fried chicken and minced...
If I could name a star dish at Interlude in TTDI, it would be the 17-hour slow cooked pork belly. Not that the other dishes weren’t good – they were in their own right but imagine this amazingly tender chunk of pork belly with buttery fat and crackly skin on a base of Rabin’s (chef [...] The post...
Banana leaf rice has become one of my favourite things to eat especially on days when I need some carbo-loving. There’s nothing quite like it – parboiled rice on fresh sheets of banana leaf, accompanied by vegetarian side dishes and drenched in assorted curries. It is spicy, packed with flavour with a...
It was by luck that rif and I stumbled upon Chew Jetty Penang Chiak in Aman Puri, when we ran some errands within the vicinity. We were initially headed to our regular roast duck spot but spotted a crowd outside Chew Jetty and decided to walk in to see what the hype was about. The [...] The post Chew Jetty...
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...
During the CNY period, we will serve prawns quite often, due to its Cantonese name 虾 "ha" sounding like laughter "ha ha ha" and thus symbolising happiness. But mainly because we are a prawn-loving family! When my kids see prawns, they get super excited and they will not be shy to ask for more ("peel more...
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...
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...
Nowadays, you can get Chinese New Year (CNY) ingredients at the shops two months before the actual celebration. We always stock up on lots of fish maw 鱼鳔and Chinese mushrooms as soon as we can get our hands on them. So, we've been cooking lots of different dishes with them and our favorite...
Mezze in Medan Damansara is one of my favourite restaurants to dine at because the place is cosy and the food, unpretentious. I’ve become quite a regular partly because it’s near home and I love the vibe. Plus, the chef makes a mean carbonara; my usual order for the past 3 years. Since my last [...] The...
Pork knuckle /pig trotters are popular ingredients used during Chinese New Year (CNY). When I was dining at a Chinese restaurant last month, I was flipping through their CNY promotion booklet and saw a pork knuckle dish. I asked the waitress why pork knuckle is served during CNY and she told me that it's...

I had another one of those conversations recently with someone from the older generation and again, it affirms the wide generation gap that separates us. Our discussion centred on the fate of women whose husbands-to-be died before their wedding. As with most of my discussions with members of the older...
