how about a potluck?

It’s been ages since I had a girls’ day out. My mommy friends and I have been so busy we hardly have time to organize anything.
What I’d really like to do is a potluck. I think that’s the easy thing to do since everyone does their fair share and gets to show off their chef-ly [...]

a delicacy of fake fins

At a wedding we attended last weekend, someone at our table seems to believe that the sharks’ fin soup that’s served, usually as a second course, are still made with real sharks’ fin.
I think I read somewhere that harvesting sharks for their fins is now illegal. And rightly so too. It’s a most inhumane thing [...]

end your day out at home

I’ve never had a day out without food being involved somehow. I mean, how can you crawl the malls and not feel hungry and then decide to get a bite to eat? Only problem is quite often, that bite to eat turns into a full-fledged meal of some sort.
Recently when my nieces were in town, [...]

eating in instead

We’re eating out less because it’s getting really expensive with the service tax and everything thrown into the bill.
My head’s been swirling with brilliant homemade meals since then. I made pan-fried fish fillet, roasted potatoes and pasta for dinner last weekend. That’s like an entire restaurant meal, only I had to cook it and do [...]

I’m just back from a girls’ day out with an old and dear friend of mine. We spent the morning at breakfast. She’s newly left her job and being single, she now has all the time in the world to do her own thing.
As for me, it’s not very often I get to have a [...]

new food adventures

Over the past few weekends and over the school holidays, we’d been hanging around the Pavilion quite a bit. No, not that we enjoy sitting in traffic jams in the city.
We went downtown once to have lunch at the Food Republic. Yeah, we love their food court because everyone gets to eat exactly what they [...]

weddings have taken over the restaurants

More and more wedding shops are springing up. Have you noticed? Well, it’s no wonder. Last night, we wanted to have dinner at a Chinese restaurant. Yep, too much Western food lately so we wanted a change.
The old Jaya Supermarket has not moved and split into two spanking new buildings, as you probably know. Jaya33 [...]

lunch at the Food Republic

We drove into town with the intention of paying some bills. But with my Backstreet Boys CD blasting away and me singing on top of my lungs, I completely missed the turn I was supposed to take and we found ourselves headed to Pavilion.
Well, okay, so we were headed there in the first place, well, [...]

no-Chinese-food challenge

We’ve succeeded in getting through the entire fifteen days of Chinese New Year without once stepping into a Chinese restaurant. A friend of mine put me up to this challenge simply because she doesn’t believe in being ripped off by the seasonal increase in prices restaurants charge for auspiciously-named dishes.
Which makes sense to me. It [...]
