Erawan Thai, Kota Damansara
I learnt not to ask for pandan chicken at Erawan Thai during my first visit to this cosy hideaway in Kota Damansara. Grandaunt took my parents and I here for dinner, and my dad’s request for pandan chicken got him the reply, “We don’t do pandan chicken here. It’s so ordinary.” Erawan however,...

Hong Kong Macau
The last time my parents took me to Hong Kong, I was 2 and didn’t remember a thing. According to mum, she had to carry me everywhere because back then, they didn’t make foldable strollers and mine didn’t fit in the cabin. Don’t know how she managed to carry a chubby toddler around the city [...]

OOTD Updates
My current wardrobe mainly stores clothes from Puma, Azorias, Peep Boutique and Mori Pin – key fashion sponsors for Bangsar Babe. I’m been so blessed to get a range of clothes from each brand on a monthly basis, and there’s really no need for me to go shopping. The amount of footwear I get from [...]

Kitchen Tales
Now that I have my own kitchen, I get to cook the things I want without getting in the way of our mothers. But I haven’t been cooking as often as I would like to. Because these days, I only get home from work around 8.30pm. At best, I would make quick meals of grilled [...]

Four Sayings Of Love
Today marks the second year of us being legally married. It’s been a challenging two years as husband and wife – we’ve gone through a fair bit of ups and downs, and more downs this year. I guess I now know the “four sayings of love” better than I used to. Suan, Ku, La, Tian [...]

Arenaa Diner, Kuala Lumpur
These days, I find it difficult to juggle with work, blog and our new home as all requires time and effort. There’s only so much I can stomach without wanting to scream my lungs out. Often, it is work that gets under my skin which then affects the blog because I usually dont have the [...]

Neubodi Active Flexi Bra
As a Neubodi trendsetter, I get to enjoy their range of products and so far, the results have been great. My breasts are noticeably fuller and firmer, and more lifted too. Problem is, I can’t fit into some my work shirts without having to safety pin the centre. Hahaha! I started wearing Neubodi in March...

Restaurants like “F” in Bangsar are what keeps me interested and I’d usually know that after the main course or dessert. I like uncomplicated dishes and relaxed dining – where I can reach out to my partner’s plate and sneak a bite or two. F by Buffalo Kitchen in Bangsar offers that freedom, and...

Headhunters
I had a few chats with headhunters regarding potential jobs I could consider and for some weird reason, they are under the impression I should be in a ‘fun’ industry. Despite me telling them the reason I went into corporate was because a ‘fun’ job doesn’t always pay the bills. Yes, agency life was...

Afternoon Tea at Four Seasons Beijing
