This is best place for breakfast according to The Guardian UK, with such an endorsement and recommendation from a news agency with over 150 years history…NO way I should missed this for anything in the world, right?
According to Guardian and I quote “It’s insanely grand and glam – and it transforms breakfast into a fabulous event. [...]
From windows to doors – we walked and looked through them. We closed and hide behind them. They shelther, guard and protect those inside. Interesting doors and windows in Europe this summer. Some lead to famous homes and people, some are run down and open into our history books.
This door behind me got to be one [...]
(Excerpts from the monthly A.News Issue 6 MMVI) It was pouring like nobody’s business outside. But I also remembered the scouring heat just like a miniute ago. In these days and age of crazy weather patterns, fears of the effects of our globe heating up and baking away, rising sea levels seemed more real than anytime in our history. Extreme [...]
What did I get myself into? What could be going through my mind that made me order this HOT and SPICY bowl of tantan noodles? I must have got up on the wrong side of my bed today.
Tanyoto apparently is one of the more famous hotpot restaurants from China. My friend’s Chinese wife told me [...]
There’s really nothing much you would feel like doing on a hot and humid Saturday afternoon. In fact I think this weather is best for a day out at the beach…it’s after all the May Day long weekend anyways…find a nice spot by the beach with an icy cold mai tai would be nice, baking under the [...]
The past weeks must have been a tough time for many hawkers in Singapore. First it was news of the Indian rojak stall then we have another food poisoning case from another steamboat restaurant also from Geylang. Things cannot be more serious than it already is. In the former, the news that 3 lives (including 1 unborn) were lost over [...]
This is a good place to check out good local food in K.L during the day. Once you’re inside, you’ll find a range of vegetables, seafood on sale and local favorite cooked food available. The stalls pictured on the right is famous because it has been on several TV programs in the region. Most recently [...]
Ok I know I am in this state of going nuts over the fun in K.L but there is further proof that their rice roll or noodles is indeed different and better in more way than one.
I came across this beef kway teow stall (recommended by Malaysia’s Most Wanted) along the main road (where all the [...]
From 5p.m WJLJ turns into a hokkien mee haven. Yes this is the same store that serves Cheong fun in the morning but the fragrance of stirfry lard and garlic fills the air come late afternoon.
Again I am referring to the K.L version of hokkien mee and again the version we have in Singapore is not even [...]
It’s official. Not only do K.Lites have the right to make fun of the Singapore’s version of ketchup wantan mee, for the record, I want to make it known that K.Lites also have better and more fun not unlike us but, the fun I am referring to is actually Cheong fun or steamed rice rolls. [...]
Some months back I posted on how those who really loved wantan mee can only get their fix from those in Malaysia or the original K.L version prepared with the REAL dark soy sauce (no ketchup pleasssse).
So what do you do when you really miss the REAL stuff? What do you do when you live [...]
A while back I got some very good sambal ikan bilis chilli sauce so I thought I could make some nasi lemak at home for a change. Nasi lemak is sentimental dish because it was what a group of us used to make when we were students back in Honolulu.
We used to get together on [...]
