I was rather surprised by this dish, because obviously I hadn’t done my research (as was mentioned before as I hadn’t realise that Garlic Prawns was french. Well, I suppose the name “French Garlic Prawns” should have been a dead [...]

When I came up with the French theme for our cookoff, I knew in my heart that there was only one dish I’d be cooking. I didn’t even look into any other dishes nor do any further research. My little heart was set on making the dish that had captured Julia Child’s editor’s attention: her [...]

It seems that the reporting of these cookoffs will never be on time. I’m not proud of that fact, but what can you do but accept fact?
June was the month for French - a theme I had begged for and wanted since the start of the cookoff dinners in January. It was when the [...]

Last weekend, twitterverse was abuzz with the hash tag #tasteofmelbourne. It was, of course, referring to this amazing event: Taste of Melbourne, held over a period of 4 days at the Royal Exhibition Building in Melbourne.

The internet is a powerful thing. Following links upon links, I chanced upon Asian Gourmet Hut in Doncaster. A malaysian restaurant! Accordingly with a [...]

We, Malaysians and Singaporeans: we love to eat. How can we not when we are surrounded by such amazing food? You might remember my previous list: My Top 10 Singaporean/Malaysian Delights to Eat and if you don’t, I suggest you take yourself to that page right now and get really hungry.
Today I’m going to [...]

Recently had a meetup with a few long-lost-friends and F suggested we meet up at Madam Kay’s Platz. Another malaysian place, and happily, a halal one. I’m always up for trying out new Malaysian hangouts so I was keen to try out the dishes.
There’s not a lot of literature with regards to this place [...]

Okay, let’s try this blogging consistently thing again. Ever since my holiday, my blogging schedule has gone out of whack and I’ve been falling in and out of the habit. I will try harder, I promise.
Now, let’s talk about Masterchef. Even if you don’t watch it, you probably know what Masterchef is. If you still [...]
