Chin Bee Tea Restaurant @ Noordin Street – More than Just Tea
I had first read about Chin Bee Tea Restaurant from Criz, who sang high praises for the place. Intrigued, I subsequently have brought my family along to dine at Chin Bee and we have all fallen in love with the food served at this place! Don’t be fooled by the name ‘tea house’. Usually, one [...]

Edo Ichi Japanese Cuisine @ Island Plaza, Tanjung Tokong
When I spotted Edo Ichi a few weeks back, the first thought that crossed my mind was ‘Do we really need another Japanese restaurant?’
Therefore I felt no real urgency to dine there. But dad being dad, went ahead to try the new place and discovered that Edo Ichi is operated by the same owners [...]

Klang Bak Kut Teh @ GohTong Jaya, Genting Highlands
It’s rather odd to find Klang Bak Kut Teh at Genting Highlands. And even odder still that we chose to eat there. Perhaps the cold weather made us crave some hot soup, and perhaps it stood out amongst the sea of seafood restaurants lined up in front of us at Taman Gohtong Jaya, Genting Highlands [...]

Canele Pattiserie @ Paragon, Orchard Road, Singapore
Ever wondered what happens when a Dessert Queen meets Singapore’s well loved Dessert King?
A serious over-dose of desserts is what!
Now I adore desserts. Absolutely whole heartedly adore them! So when I arrived in Singapore for an ultra short trip, I almost immediately made a bee line for Canele Pattiserie at Paragon.
I ooh-ed and [...]

Penang Special Samosa @ Little India
I’ve always been a big fan of Indian food though my knowledge about it is still very much in its infancy stage. I love how spices add so much depth and flavour to otherwise ordinary ingredients. Therefore I was most delighted when I stumbled upon this lil stall at the junction of Market Street and [...]

Amelie Cafe @ Armenian Street – Charmingly Rustic
A friend had told me about Amelie Cafe along Armenian Street located in the heart of Georgetown, Penang which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. I had no idea where Amelie Cafe was located in Armenian Street as I only knew of Edelweiss Cafe along that street. As I drove along Armenian Street, [...]
