This was a quick dinner before catching Alice In Wonderland 3D at Lido Cineplex.
Rick and I are both HUGE fans of Imperial Treasure’s roast meats, especially their roast pork. See how beautifully golden the crackling is! It’s evenly crisp and light, just sublime. The char siew is succulent, has good bite, and isn’t too sweet.

The only reason I had lunch here today was because Noodle Place has a new head consultant, Chef Chui, who was formerly Executive Chef of the renowned Mak’s Noodles in Hong Kong.
Now, I’ve not tried Mak’s Noodles’s famous shrimp wanton noodle before. But having been to Hong Kong a couple of times before, I find [...]

Howdy, my dear fellow foodies! Have you been eating well? Sorry for the lack of updates. I’ve been so busy with Lunar New Year-related activities. Really need to clear my backlog of posts!
Let’s start with this one, which was Sunday lunch with mother-in-law and hubby two weeks before Lunar New Year.
We only tried 5 dimsum [...]

I was invited by Concorde Hotel, Singapore, to preview their Lunar New Year reunion dinner buffet offerings. This was my first lo-hei (which is 捞起 in Cantonese) of the year, and I must say I really liked it. This Peranakan-style yu sheng is a new dish created by Baba Jolly. If you remember, I blogged [...]

Happy 2010, everyone! Hope you all had a great start to the new year!
Regrettably, I missed posting on the first day of the year, cos I was sick in bed. But my appetite’s coming back now. 2009 was a year of wonderful foodie finds and new makan kakis. Let’s [...]

Imperial Treasure is a well-known chain of Chinese restaurants in Singapore. This is their flagship outlet, which specializes in fine-dining Cantonese cuisine. In the few times I’ve been here, I’ve always been impressed by the caliber and consistent standard of their cooking. In fact, I’d say what they serve here is as good as what [...]

The newly refurbished Maxwell Chambers, which is located next to Tanjong Pagar MRT (and near hubby’s office), houses a number of new F&B outlets. When we were there about three weeks ago, not all were opened yet. Among those already in operation is Funan Weng, which specializes in Ipoh hor fun.

I skipped Day 2 – Wan Hao @ Marriott – of the Cuisine & Wine Asia dimsum tasting. Why? Cos I was resting to starve prepare for Day 3 which had two dimsum sessions back-to-back!
The first session on Day 3 was at Si Chuan Dou Hua located on the top floor (60th storey) of UOB [...]

I love dimsum. So it was an immediate “yes” when Leslie asked if I was game for a dimsum marathon session! For their May/June 2009 issue, Cuisine & Wine Asia magazine has a feature article on dimsum. 5 food bloggers, or “food paparazzi” as coined by feature writer Jackson Sim, served as tasters for 6 [...]

After visiting Jaime La Nourriture’s lovely blog, I’m now very inspired to blog in Chinese too! Problem is, I haven’t written in Chinese for more than 10 years. It’ll be good practice to brush up on my very rusty Chinese, heh! Ok, here goes……

星期六了,我和老公都没特别节目。我又不想煮晚饭,于是我们便到惹兰红山中心吃晚餐和逛超市。
老公:哎,我们真uncool! 星期六晚上没去cheong,却跑来这种只有uncle/auntie来的地方!
我:有什么办法?我们以“升级”做uncle/auntie了!
Translated:
It’s Saturday. Hubby and I had no special plans. I didn’t feel [...]
