Foodie Friday: Crazy over Kimchi?
During our recent holiday to Korea, one of the memorable experiences was learning how to make Kimchis at a Kimchi school (there's a school to teach Kimchi making, no kidding!). Honestly speaking, I am not a big fan of Kimchis as I find it a tad too sour and spicy for my liking but according to our tour guide, Kimchis has more Lactobacillus acidophilus and more pro-biotic agents than the yakult we drink hence making it beneficial for our intestinal health. Apparently, Kimchis also eliminates … [Read more...]

Foodie Friday: Baked Yummy Cod with Crackers!
I chanced upon this recipe last week when I had to fix a quick dinner for the family after a long, busy day at work.

I googled for a recipe on my Iphone and bingo, found a life saver!This recipe is so delicious and so easy to put together (2 main ingredients in 3 simple steps) that I … [Read more...]

Foodie Friday: All-Day Brunch@Oktober Munich
All day brunches are a dime a dozen all over Singapore but last Sunday, we've discovered a gem nestled in the quaint Dempsey enclave (near Huber's butchery). The name of the restaurant 'Oktober Munich Restaurant and Bar' sounds like a typical German beer place but we were pleasantly surprised that they serve up a mean brunch too! Apparantly, they started the Brunch Menu just barely 3 weeks ago. Daddy ordered the Oktober Breakfast $20 … [Read more...]
