Penang: A Foodie Paradise The recent trip to Penang, Malaysia with my mum is probably one of my first overseas foodie trip where our sole focus was to indulge in all the local food. Like Singapore, Penang is truly a food paradise where you can find good food at almost every corner of the street.…
Taste.Swiss Butchery This Chinese New Year festive period is a time for gatherings and festive. It’s this time of the year where you catch up with relatives and friends which you’ve not met for almost a year!

As Singapore’s temperatures drop to an all-time low, I’m starting to crave for warm Chinese food. One of the new kid on the block in our local Chinese restaurant scene is Myo Restobar, a modern restaurant-cum-bar that serves traditional Cantonese dishes alongside classic dim sum made with an innovative twist, in a contemporary industrial setting.

I have been to Shangri-la Hotel Singapore at Orchard for several times now and every time I walked past this exquisite fine dining Chinese restaurant, I would wonder to myself if I could actually find some gold ‘treasures’ in there.

When it comes to our local Hawker food, we would associate it with oily fried food like Char Kuay Teow and Fried Carrot Cake.

With so many food options these days, it would be an excuse if you are telling me that it’s hard to eat healthily. And if there aren’t any healthy food choices you can make on Deliveroo, then perhaps you can try food delivery services that deliver convenient and wholesome meals to your doorstep for…
There are plenty of cafes and restaurants serving good food which look delicious and highly-‘instagrammable’. It may be a great hit with the younger crowd but the older generation like our parents and grandparents might just want a simple, hearty and warm home-cooked dishes. My folks, especially, prefer simple homecooked meals that use fresh ingredients only,…
This marks the year of Jubilee and also the year of Rooster which probably another year of good tidings. The joy that we Singaporeans are enjoying has transcended into this festive abundance where massive crowds of people spending lavishly on Chinese New Year goodies in Chinatown and queuing up for hours just to get their…
I’ve been to Hong Kong a couple of times now and it is a well-known food haven in Asia for a very long time. They may not have presented in their dishes in a super stunning way or in an ‘instagrammable’ fashion, but in terms of taste, they nailed it right on that sweet spot.…
