After a rather disappointing char siew experience at Meng Kee Char Siew in Happy Garden, I decided to give the branch in Kuchai Lama a shot. Which was a let-down as well. Service was prompt and our food didn’t take long to arrive. We ordered the usual – char siew wantan mee (RM5.50 – small, []...
After visiting Charleton Fruit Farm, we made our way to Montrose followed by Arbroath. When in Arbroath, one must get smokies to eat/bring home. The Arbroath smokie is a specialty here; it is made using haddock (gutted and head removed) which is first salted, dried and then hot smoked whole with its...
SATURDAY MORNING WE LEFT FOR LONDON... It was only an hour plus flight from Aberdeen to London. We reached London around 1pm and from there, we hired an Avis car and drove straight to Oxford which was an hour plus away from London. This is our first time going to Oxford and we didn't know what...

The Unc took us to Der Dicke Bub for some fab burgers before we went on our hike at Drachenfels. Since it was a nice day, we chose to sit outdoors and enjoy the sunshine and breeze. You will need to place your orders inside (pay later once you have finished eating) and they will bring the burgers to your...
THE NEXT EVENING WAS A FRIDAY.... Aaron came back earlier than his usual time and took us to Stonehaven, a 15 miles away and a half hour drive from our place. It is my third time going to Stonehaven and as far as I can remember, the famous joints are The Bay and Auntie Betty's. Originally a...
Banana leaf rice has become a weekly ritual for me; its difficult to resist freshly cooked parboiled rice drenched in assorted curries, with side vegetables, meat and rasam to cap off the meal. I have my favourites like this gem and this, but recently found out about the banana leaf rice at UMAC...
After all the meat feasting, one morning I woke up during our holidays and was craving for vegetables! So I decided to whip up a quick and easy vegetarian omelette for our breakfast.For our vegetarian omelette, I added thinly sliced zucchini, red onion and topped it with some mozzarella cheese for an oozy,...

I first visited Kim Lian Kee five years ago when I started working in KL – my then colleagues took me out to lunch and highly recommended the Hokkien Mee. It soon became one of my regular lunch spots, especially when I discovered “Moonlight Kuay Teow”. That’s essentially fried kuay teow with a raw...
A couple of years ago, on our way to Braemar, we passed by Easter Anguston (just after Peterculter) and saw a big sign for "Pick Your Own Strawberries". Since it is relatively close to Aberdeen, we decided to drop by and check out the place, Unfortunately there weren't any strawberries available that day,...
The name Meng Kee carries a lot of weightage when it comes to char siew – I would expect the char siew to be one of the best in town. When I tried Meng Kee Char Siew in Happy Garden, I was disappointed. While the char siew wasn’t terrible, it wasn’t the usual standard I [] The post Meng Kee...
Do you remember trying a dish and not liking it, and deciding never to try it again? A long time ago, I was served a dry piece of cooked salmon and from then, I decided cooked salmon was not for me. That however did not stop me from eating raw salmon (aka sashimi), in fact it is one of my favorite...
I like the look and feel of The Brasserie at The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur, where the high ceilings and plush furnishing oozes modern sophistication. This has been on my list of restaurants to try when my partner in crime is in town, and we did – slightly over a week ago. Though the hotel [] The post...
When a restaurant requires prior booking in order for customers to secure a table, one would expect the food to be top notch. My in-laws have been raving about Jeff Lee Kitchen in Sungai Buloh, especially their “standing chicken” and minced pork wantan noodles. There were no tables available when we...
IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I last went to Sin Hup Kee restaurant along Jalan Leong Sin Nam... This place was a frequent joint for my kids when they were very young and ever since they left Ipoh, we did not go there anymore. Never thought of this place when they come back for their holidays mainly...
Usually, we would have foie gras with caramelised apples, however we were inspired to try this with raw apples after we had it at Saveur.
