The last time I ate at Cherry Garden was in 2008 or perhaps even in 2007 when the previous chef was at the helm and revamped the restaurant. He has left a legacy that is followed quite nicely by the current chef. I was invited to lunch by my salesperson as I was checking out...

And I Turn A Year Older
Yet another year passes and this year…I decided to do something a little bit different. I organised my own bday lunch party. I know…sounds really weird but I bought Union Jack fake nails, buntings and napkins when I was in London so…I decided to use it during my birthday. It was that or Christmas…and somehow, Union Jack...

In Chef Mode – Stir Fried Soumen
Here’s something really simple to prepare and cook – all under 20 minutes. I just came up with this dish because my student cancelled our lesson at the last minute and I needed to whip something up quick and healthy. Soumen is a type of Japanese noodle that is normally eaten cold in the summer...

Restaurant Review – Stellar @ 1-Altitude
Met up with my ex-colleagues today as they treated me to an early birthday lunch! Jen suggested Stellar @ 1-Altitude and the menu looked really fantastic from the website. I was all psyched up to go and try out the food at this restaurant since it’s supposed to be fine dining AND it has a...

I realised that I have been cooking but not posting up a lot of the photos of the foods that I’ve cooked recently so here they are: The above breakfast was a result of me being sick and tired of eating cold salami, fruit and yoghurt for breakfast when we were in Italy so the...

Restaurant Review – Poulet
My family is all for good food at reasonable prices so, my dad was particularly interested to try the food at ‘Poulet’, a nouveau French restaurant at the revamped Bugis+ (formerly known as Illuma) by Chef Nelson Chua (formerly from Au Petit Salut). The design of the place is quite cozy in the sense that...

In Chef Mode – Cupcakes & Spaghetti Vongole
I just had the urge to bake on Monday, so I did! I cheated and just bought a pre-mix though. Haha…I baked lemon cupcakes with a simple icing. It was delish! I’m not a cake person so one is enough for me. 🙂 So satisfying to bake perfect cupcakes without having to measure the flour...
