If you ask me what represents Christmas, I would say food (from foie gras to seafood), champagne, wine, and presents. So much food I had during Christmas that I did eat light after. I thought my body needed a break. I had light meal such as soup, quick stir-fry, and salad. I do ...

Mooli Puff
It was weekend and I was glad that I had the whole day to do whatever I wanted. I cherish this kind of moment when I have got the whole morning and afternoon to do things that I enjoy. I opened the freezer and I saw the leftover pate feuilletée (puff pastry) ...
Asparagus Egg Benedict
Run out of ideas what to make for dinner? Don’t have a lot of time spent in the kitchen as you don’t want to miss your favourite program on the TV. Worse still, you have only a few eggs left in the fridge, some asparagus which are in season now, a ...
Easy Butternut Squash Soup
I was a late starter with butternut squash and didn’t know much about it until few years ago. I saw them often at the supermarkets but had never picked one up and put in my shopping basket. I stayed curious for quite some time on its taste and texture until I finally ...
Greek Salad (Salade Grecque)
Even though I had pretty busy schedule last week, that didn’t deter me from spending time in the kitchen to prepare simple and healthy dinner. I never bought prepared meals from the supermarket, except for pizza, Korean/Japanese instant noodles(from time to time when I really can’t be bothered!) and fresh pastas. ...
It’s delicious and takes about 25-30 minutes to make – Risotto Alla Bisi y Pancetta – Pea & Pancetta Risotto. Risotto is a rich and creamy, traditional Italian rice dish. It is one of the most common ways of cooking rice in Italy. So many theories out there as to how to ...
Sausage & Mash
The weather in London has been pretty pleasant recently. When it is warm and sunny like this, a lot of Brits like to have a pint or 2 after work, enjoying their time at the pub. Pub isn’t just a place to drink but a place where you can find some food ...
Asam Laksa (Rice Noodles in Hot and Sour Fish Gravy)
Just a few weeks ago, I went out with a friend of mine and told her that I was craving for Asam Laksa. I mentioned that I hadn’t eaten Asam Laksa for too long that I couldn’t even remember how many years? Yeah, it does sound incredibly shocking but that was ...
White Wine Poached Pears
I could feel a sudden change of weather. We have had kind of wet and stormy weather for the past 2 weeks or so? It rained again yesterday, which was horrible. Not only was the rain that made me feel miserable but the continuous strong gust of wind that was powerful ...
Savour Penang – Joo Leong Café
In Penang, you don’t have to worry about food. There is no chance that you will go hungry! Plenty of food stalls/hawkers centres are scattered around the island. Some are even opened 24 hours. Everywhere you go, you will see people eating if not smelling food! I think, we Malaysians are ...
