Instead of eating at home for Chinese New Year Eve reunion dinner, Mom-in-law decided to dine out this year. Our celebratory reunion meal was a regular haunt near our home — Savor Rey La Mian Xiao Long Bao Restaurant, an under-rated little diner that serves more than decent north-eastern Chinese cuisine.

But the first course was a distinctly Singaporean Chinese new year dish — yu sheng or lo hei.

The raw fish slices were a little too thin and scant. Otherwise, the rest of the dish was rather predictable. Continue Reading »

Baby Matilda

What did you just say, Mommy? It’s New Year again?

Oh, this time we’re celebrating Lunar New Year! Bye bye Rabbit, hello Dragon!

Mommy says we must put on new outfits when we go visiting during New Year. How do I look in my new pink dress and bunny hat?

This sunny Sunday morning, we put Matilda in her pram and took a 15-minute stroll to Tiong Bahru Market & Food Centre for breakfast.

Chwee kueh, 6 pieces for S$1.80

Hubby had his usual chwee kueh from the legendary Jian Bo Shui Kueh.

Somehow, I find that it’s oilier and the topping not as fragrant as it used to be. But it still has its following of die-hard fans. Continue Reading »

Yo, what's up?

Dear Aunties & Uncles, jie jie & kor kor – Happy New Year!

Mommy says I’m 5 months old today! She said I should update you on what I’ve been up to. Now, I’ve discovered how to flip onto my tummy, but I still don’t know how to flip back.

Mommy also says – with a tone of disgust – that I put everything I can grab into my mouth. What’s wrong with that??

In another month’s time, I can start to eat solids. Yay! When Mommy and Daddy eat, I can only look on and drool. Their food smells so yummy! Can’t wait for my teeth to pop out so I can start eating proper FOOD!

That’s all for now. See ya around! :D

Thanks to the generous folks at PrimaDéli, my family and I enjoyed this gorgeous cake for our Christmas celebration!

This 3D Santa’s Cottage cake is truly spectacular, and looks even more stunning than in photos. When I brought out the cake, everyone was going, “Wah……so beautiful!” Continue Reading »

Breads from Maison Kayser

Seems like hubby’s tastebuds are becoming more gourmet. Without giving him any background on these artisan breads, I asked him, “Nice or not?”

His reply, “Very nice! These breads taste very different. Where did you buy them?”

Answer: The new French boulangerie Maison Kayser from Paris at Scotts Square. The Singapore branch is opened by Shu Kimura, who runs Maison Kayser’s outlets in Japan. Continue Reading »
