Suffolk House Restaurant – Romantic Fine Dining

If you’re in a hurry, got a plane to catch or if you just don’t particularly fancy your dining partner(s) and want to keep things short and sweet, then, I’m afraid, Suffolk House Restaurant might not be the place for you. Because dinners at Suffolk House are meant to be taken at a leisurely pace, [...]

Kim Tavern @ Sunway Carnival Mall, Seberang Jaya

I do venture to Sunway Carnival Mall occasionally and did not notice any new food outlets, so I was quite surprised when I received an invitation to dine at a new cafe by Taufulou’s friend, via CK. And so a small group of us ventured across the sea (reminds me of  going for a“lawatan sambil [...]

Dinner at a Post Office in Singapore

During an ultra short trip to Singapore last month, I managed to meet Lady Iron Chef for the first time after being an avid fan of his amazingly drool worthy blog. And coincidentally one of my favourite writers was also in Singapore for a short visit. So we went on a lil food crawl of [...]

Sneak Peak of Yumminess At Golden Sands Resort!

I must admit that I have not stepped foot into Golden Sands Resort in a long long time. Perhaps it got overshadowed by its glitzier counterpart next door. But no better time to get re-acquainted than right now!

As I walked into the hotel, I felt a sense of delight that it’s gotten a fresh vibrant [...]

Pork Burgers and More @ Cristang, Petaling Jaya

Here’s a meaty start to the week… yummy wholesome pork burgers…… ~drools~ (home made pork burger patties too mind you!) I had first read about Cristang from Absolut Ginger who should really be a flogger herself, what with her frequent drool-worthy, saliva enducing makan trips!

Cristang is a quiet, laid back place that serves Malacan style [...]

Blue Reef Fish & Chips – My Current Favourite Restaurant!

Every now and then, my family and I  stumble upon a restaurant that we all adore. Now this is no easy task, as we are a family with varying taste buds and eating patterns (she’s not keen on vegetables, he’s not keen on spicy food, she’s vegetarian, he doesn’t eat fish etc etc). So to [...]

Harvest In Cafe @ Irrawaddy Road, Penang

When I stepped into Harvest In Cafe recently, I felt a wave of nostalgia as this was the place I had gone to for Bahasa Malaysia tuition in secondary school. I guess my tuition teacher must have sold the place and moved away as it is now home to a simple yet classy cafe serving [...]

Chocolate oh chocolate, how I love thee. Let me count the ways….
Anyone who knows me well would know what a chocoholic I am. There is something so soothing and so exquisite in a piece of really good chocolate melting slowly in your mouth…
