Great Wall of China – Mutianyu
While Badaling is the more popular section of The Great Wall, I was told to check out Mutianyu as it is less crowded and with just as nice a view. Planned the journey on my own since I didn’t travel to Beijing with rif – took a lot of getting used to because traveling itineraries [...]

Curry Laksa at Sin Hoy How, Jalan Tun H.S Lee
My love for curry laksa started when I was 16, after my very first bowl at the coffeeshop in Lucky Garden. Since then, Im always on the lookout for curry laksa. There’s this curry laksa stall in KL (Restoran Sin Hoy How) which I find decent. It’s located across the road from Hong Ngek and [...]

Home
We’ve been staying at our new place for a week now and are moving our things in bit by bit. For now, we got most of the basics covered. Our home is still pretty bare because we’ve yet to decorate it. There are many things we want to do to spruce things up, but these [...]

Thai Food Festival at Eccucino, Prince Hotel Residence Kuala Lumpur
I used to joke that I’d marry a Thai and live in Bangkok so I can eat as much Thai food as I want or possibly can. There’s just something about their cuisine that appeals to me – sour, spicy and sweet are my favourite notes. From 19 – 25 September, you can now tuck [...]

Bangsar Babe’s Top 10 Food To Eat
Over the long weekend, a few of my readers informed me that some of the links to my blog posts were down. Links to popular posts, especially – all the Top 10s were down. These days, malware has been an issue on the blog. I’ve lost count on the many times my web host had [...]

Capital Nasi Dagang Kelantan in Damansara Uptown
rif and I stumbled upon Capital Nasi Dagang last weekend when we were driving around Damansara Uptown in search of a lunch place. It was close to 3pm and we had just finished running errands and picking up some things for our new home – and most lunch places were closed. The name Capital Nasi [...]

September Fashion Updates: Mori Pin Neubodi
The second Sunday of September was a hectic one for both rif and I. Seems like it was an auspicious day to get married and move into new homes. We did the latter. So there were three wedding sessions we attended that day (jip san leong, Malay wedding and Chinese wedding dinner) and in between, [...]

Hotel Review: The Datai Langkawi
I first heard about The Datai from a reader of mine, who recommended that rif and I celebrate our wedding anniversary there this year. We looked up The Datai on Google and from the pictures and positive reviews on TripAdvidor, it sounded like an amazing place. Two months later, the PR of The Datai Langkawi...

Beef Wellington at Prime, Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur
Prime at Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur serves possibly the best meats in town. I get my fix at least once a month and after trying the various steak places in town, Prime still remains my favourite. Not because the other places aren’t good – but because the chefs at Prime know just how I like [...]

The Peephole
I wanted a peephole for my door ever since rif and I collected the keys in March this year. My reasoning to him for this was that I wanted to be able to see who’s outside my door without opening it. In case of danger. But the security for our place is pretty tight (even [...]

Our ‘new maid’ and more home updates
When rif and I decided on the apartment of our choice, we didn’t factor in the amount of housekeeping that needs to be done. Our mini renovation and furnishing the place cost quite a fortune and left us with very little budget for anything else. So we got this robot vacuum cleaner from Lazada – [...]

Hakka Mee and Loh Shi Fun at Restoran Yi Poh
Yi Poh in Seremban is known for its Hakka Mee and Loh Shi Fun – both served with minced pork and char siew slices. On our way back from Melaka, we stopped by for lunch to see what the hype was; my mother in-law claimed the food is good. Ordered one Hakka mee each and [...]

Life Chocolate Cake
Chocolate cake is food for my soul. But it can potentially ruin my mood if I dont get it the way I want and when I want. You have good old classic chocolate cake that never fails, especially when it’s all nice and moist. And then there’s chocolate lava cake that is decadent and molten [...]

Fried Laksa at Restoran Well Cook Gourmet, SS14 Subang Jaya
I once had asam laksa and tomyam every day for two weeks, so much that my mother thought I was pregnant. These are my two must-haves whenever I’m feeling crabby; along with fried chicken. During one of my crabby phases, rif took me for fried laksa in SS14, Subang Jaya. The Fried Laksa (RM6.50) was [...]

Yard of Sausage Challenge at Gastro
When Le Meridien came up with the Yard of Sausage Challenge at Gastro Sentral, many tried to tackle this giant monster. Imagine putting away more than 1kg of giant chicken Kransky sausage with nacho cheese, tomato salsa, guacamole, pickled jalapenos and deep fried onions. That, and also a pound of fries.

Random Food Updates
I got this email from a reader expressing his disappointment because I’ve been doing less food posts these days. Firstly, I did mention that the blog is heading a different direction and while food is still a big part of Bangsar Babe, it will not be the only thing I blog about. Besides, both rif [...]
