Hi everyone. Before I start this post, I just want to say one thing: How awesome is the photo of my lemon truffle, nestled amongst the mini speckled eggs? Because it’s now my favourite of all the photos I’ve taken and you, you should definitely love it also. Kapish? Kapish. Ok. Now that I’ve gotten … Read More →
What is a mooli indeed? This is the question that’s been on everyone’s lips. Well, here, you can have the answer… So a mooli is not a giant Asian radish, as some of you may have thought (well, you weren’t wrong, but um, you’re wrong) but instead Mooli’s is a new concept of modernised Indian food … Read More →
You know sometimes when your friend tells you something that their mum’s uncle’s neighbour’s dog told them, you kinda tune out because the information is so far removed from the source that a monkey’s uncle sounds like a funky crumble? No? Anyway, when my friend told us that her boyfriend’s colleagues from Japan (ok, so … Read More →
So I have this friend. And when people ask how we know each other, I always say well, he’s a friend of a friend. In actual fact, he’s my friend’s ex. But my friend has said that as long as I love her more, which of course I do, infinitely more, I can be friends … Read More →
Somebody once told me that cheating at school doesn’t pay. I don’t remember who it was but from a very young age, brought up in the ultra-strict schooling system in Malaysia where if you’re good, you only get caned and if you’re bad then whee-wooo, we don’t want to go there. So I never cheated … Read More →
* caveat: there is no recipe for meatballs in this post. I uh, bought mine from Tesco. There is a recipe for beetroot salad though! So. In case you don’t follow me on twitter, you might have missed the case of my Recent Obsessive Compulsive Infatuation with meatballs last week. I woke up Tuesday thinking … Read More →
My matcha craze is in full swing. Not only have I made my matcha whoopie pie, I’ve got the matcha rice krispies and matcha ice cream, the ugly (and I need to change the recipe and re-bake) matcha cupcakes and even the matcha butter cookies which died a horrible death and turned into lemon cupcakes … Read More →
So it’s 23 sleeps til Panu and I go to Hong Kong, but um, no one’s really counting are they? I mean I’m not mildly OCD and in desperate need for a vacation am I?? I am. Indeed I am, and shut up to all of you who say I travel too much. This trip … Read More →
Cassava fries at Canela Carnaby Street, because somehow eating fries that aren’t “potato” always seems so much healthier. Pão de queijo or Brazilian cheese bread, in plain or chorizo. I liked the plain version for its stupendously smooth texture, although bite sized chorizo bits do make my belly smile. Coxinha, a cone of mashed chicken … Read More →
In October last year, we went to San Francisco and I had the absolute pleasure of dining at The House of Prime Rib. And actually I just want to end this blog post right now, because really, there is no life after The House of Prime Rib. But sadly, there is. The House of Prime … Read More →
So last year I went along to this event called the Food Blogger Connect. I had no idea what to expect really, except that it was held at a groovy Lebanese restaurant, but wow, what an event! Food, food, bloggers, food, cameras, food! I mean really, is there anything else to life?! I’m not sure, … Read More →
It’s been a completely funk-ti-fied week this week. And definitely not the groovy kind of funk. I’ve been feeling really cranky and irritable and I’m not really sure why considering it was pay week and pay week means food fundage, which always puts a smile on my face. No. It’s not PMS *glare* Maybe it’s … Read More →
Teriyake chicken set at Yoisho, Goodge Street. Well, that fixed my craving good and proper.
Matcha latte from EAT and home made macarons from my gorgeous friend, Charmaine. Spoilt.
Pulled pork roll with rocket & apple sauce, followed by a Portuguese tart. Fernandez & Wells, Soho. And me…. photo courtesy of tehbus.com
A flat white at Flat White, Berwick Street, Soho. And I don’t even drink coffee.
… keeps the cranky cat away. Rococo organic white chocolate with cardamom from Chocolate Reviews. Richly decadent, exotically spicy. Definitely chocolate for a special occasion.
So. Last Friday night, as I was eating a large bowl of sweet potato mash for dinner (I know, I know, my diet is not so well balanced but geez it was delicious), I tweeted something about loving sweet potatoes so much I’d even eat them for dessert… Not ever letting anything this interesting pass … Read More →
I have to admit, if there’s one thing I’m not snobby about, it’s pizza. My very most favourite and the one and only pizza that bedazzles my taste buds is still Domino’s BBQ Chicken & Bacon, and that’s the Australian Domino’s, because the London version just isn’t the same. Since we’ve been in London, Panu … Read More →
