I’ve heard good things about BreadFruits since they first opened in Sri Hartamas but they were always a full house whenever I attempted to visit. Their second outlet in Taman Desa is considerably larger but service needs a lot of work. My first attempt to check them out ended abruptly when the staff told...
The Porki Society in Seapark, Petaling Jaya focuses on boat noodle, served in small bowls (RM1.90 each) with bits of pork lard for added crunch.

The Westin Singapore on Marina Bay offers some of the best views of the city, which you can enjoy when you ask for a sea view room or opt to dine at any one of their restaurants. I like the view at Cook Brew best – the hotel’s contemporary gastro bar-restaurant, which offers a [] The post...
Dewakan in KDU Shah Alam isn’t easy to find – it took me a good 30 minutes of wandering around the campus to finally find the restaurant, which is beautifully tucked away at a quiet corner with a view of Chef Darren’s garden patch. My second time around was a breeze, mostly because I knew []...
By fashion writer: Wei Ni Lee I’m always on the hunt for the PERFECT eyeliner. It has to be opaque, affordable, longwearing, non-smudging in the blackest possible black! Needless to say, that’s a tall order! When the invite came from Shu Uemura to check out their reformulated Calligraph:Ink Liquid...
I’ve never been that big a fan of café hopping simply because I prefer sticking to a few that serves good coffee and if possible, desserts that are worth checking out. There’s something about Fluffed Café Dessert Bar in Taman Paramount that appeals to me – it has a vibe that makes me feel...
During our stay at Westin Phuket, rif and I got to sample the FB offering that the resort has to offer – from robust Thai cuisine to hearty Italian favourites. We also enjoyed the room service since we spent most of our time in the villa. At Prego by the Beach, we tucked into pizza [] The post...

If I had to pick a favourite dish at Little Thai Kitchen in Dataran Sunway, it would be the Phad Suki Hang (RM12.90) – an uncommon Thai fried noodles that comes in a soup or dry version. The one I tried at Little Thai Kitchen was delicious; charred bits, plenty of meat and vegetables and [] The...

The menu at Live House is larger, with signature burgers, sharing plates, quesadillas and sliders so...
Dining at Yamaguchi Fish Market is an experience inspired by the fish markets in Japan, but more upscale in terms of ambiance. As the name suggests, seafood is their main focus while a small portion of the menu is dedicated to Chinese cuisine. One of the highlights at Yamaguchi Fish Market is the air-flown...
As most of you know, the blog has reached a stage where I now require extra help in the form of contributors, photographers and interns. And Ive been interviewing candidates in search of suitable additions to the Bangsar Babe team. While I have difficulties letting go and giving in to differences, I...
There’s something about spicy food that gets me excited, especially when it’s Thai cuisine. I love the spicy, tangy, sweet and salty flavours this cuisine has to offer, from refreshing salads to grilled seafood, served with piquant dipping sauces. Thai U Up in Sri Petaling serves pretty decent Thai...

Valentines Day is an occasion most girls (or at least the ones I know) look forward to each year the thought of receiving flowers and gifts from their other half, and the idea of dressing up for a romantic date. Here are 7 looks that the Bangsar Babe team put together, featuring items from...
Mention Klang and most people will associate it with Bak Kut Teh – a delicious breakfast ritual of pork cuts, simmered in an intense herbal broth for that heady flavour and aroma. It is a staple in Klang where some like it soupy and others like it to be more intense. I like them both [] The post Mo...
