On Sunday, we had an advance celebratory lunch for Mom-in-law. MIL hinted that she’d like Indonesian food, so we made reservations at Tambuah Mas. This was our first time at the Paragon outlet; previously, we used to go to Tanglin Shopping Centre, which we remember as being good and consistent. First to arrive, the dish [...]

“What shall we have for breakfast tomorrow?” I asked Rick on Saturday evening. “Let’s go to SGH for otah buns!” was the instant and eager reply. Before you think we’re madder than the Mad Hatter to go all the way to a hospital for breakfast, allow me to clarify. Singapore General Hospital is a leisurely [...]

Whipping up dinner for my dear friends – Camemberu, Derrick, Hungry Cow, Keropokman and Momo – was something I truly enjoyed (and something I’d gladly do again), but the next day, I was totally pooped. Hey, what a great excuse to hang up the apron and call for pizza! Actually, I’d also been wanting to [...]

This was a quick lunch from last Saturday. I was attending a workshop nearby, and at lunchtime, the entire class of 12 plus our trainer trooped down to the nearest eatery to fill our bellies. Turns out this random pick was pretty good. The ayam lemak putih – a very mild and coconutty chicken curry [...]

Time: 1pm. Weather: Cold, rainy, miserably grey. State of tummy: Totally empty, furiously growling (due to skipping breakfast). Prescription: Nasi padang. To start with, nasi (rice) with the prerequisite veggie and must-order-at-every-nasi-padang-meal bergedil. No earth-shattering moment here.

After a fun-filled Sony Alpha DSLR outdoor workshop at Kampong Glam, the empty tummies were growling to be filled. So off we headed to the nearby Hajah Maimunah for a yummy nasi padang lunch. I was surprised to see that Hjh Maimunah now has a cleaner, more contemporary look with new countertops, furniture, re-tiled walls [...]

I’m gonna be brutally harsh and declare that I’m never coming back to this place. Ditto the hubby who has even more brutal things to say, but this is a family-friendly blog so let’s just leave it as that. Actually, we enjoyed the food. The fish curry gravy was a delightful blend of spicy, sweet, [...]

Being susceptible to sore throats, I try to cut down on hot, heavily-spiced, and deep-fried foods. Living in a land where delicious spicy dishes are in abundance, it takes a ton of effort to exercise self-restraint. Imagine being in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, and being surrounded by all that fabulous candy, but able to have [...]

After repeatedly hearing me gush over Spize’s murtabak, hubby R couldn’t resist anymore and told ordered me to take him there. He decided to try the murtabak with mutton filling instead of the chicken.
