Saturday Social BBQ at [email protected]
One of the challenges families with young children face when looking for dining options is that there seem to be very few places where kids can be well-entertained and meaningfully occupied that free our minds to catch-up with each other or with our friends. In fact, more often than not, children sometimes get unfairly chided(or frowned upon) for either being too boisterous in restaurants or being restless and running around (dangerous!). What happens next is that parents would whip up the … [Read more...]

Kai Garden recently launched the "Family Favourites" menu which offers … [Read more...]
Going Local with Le Creuset: Fish Maw Soup
During the December school holidays, the husband and I challenged ourselves to cook yet another heritage dish which we can serve our guests when they visit. Fish Maw Soup is one of our favourite but we only get it to eat it on special occasions. Ever since our Bangkok trip where we tasted the Fish Maw Soup from Ping's Teochew Restaurant, we had been thinking how awesome it would be if we can master this dish for the upcoming Chinese New Year. With a good recipe in hand, we went about … [Read more...]
Sundays with Sun-Maid Raisins
Ever had one of those rare weekends where you have either virtually no plans or have decided to shelf aside less urgent ones so that we can devote time to what weekends are best for – being spontaneous? Well, rare as it is, we had one recently in the midst of weeks of whirlwind school holiday activities. It was a Sunday…we turned down several invites as we wanted to laze at home after church . Not wanting a precious afternoon like this to be whiled away, I decided at the drop of a hat to … [Read more...]

Going Local with Le Creuset: Pig Trotters Vinegar 猪脚醋
We attended a friend's baby's full month celebration last month and the home-cooked Pig Trotters Vinegar prepared by our friend's Mom left us wanting for more. Pig Trotters Vinegar is a popular confinement food that can be laborious to prepare. With an iconic cookware like Le Creuset, it's just a matter of time that we pair it with local iconic dishes. At the hubby's encouragement, I decided to put the Le Creuset and my rookie culinary skill to the test to cook the legendary … [Read more...]
Going Local with Le Creuset: ChickPea Chicken Curry
In the multiracial society we live in, curry is the ONE unifying dish that is enjoyed by all races represented in Singapore. It is also of the most requested dish at my extended family's gathering.
