Getha: Transforme 360
Getha delivered our new bed in June, but due to the many defects in our apartment unit and countless reminders to the developer and contractor to get their act together, I didn’t want the Getha boys to assemble my new bed just yet. In case it gets damaged during the apartment repairs. When things were [...]

Things Teddy Does
Its been almost 4 months since Teddy arrived in my family home and hes grown pretty significantly. Hes still small, but not super tiny anymore. Thats a given, since he eats so much and almost everything he sees! This little thing even eats Miko and Melanies food. -_-...

Harrods, KLCC
Harrods used to be one of my favourite places to visit in London – I loved the deli section and that was also the place where I first learnt about designer labels. When Harrods opened in KLCC, I wasn’t particularly drawn to the shop as I was in London. It was only last week that [...]

Our Home Chandelier
Our home has been a work in progress ever since we got our keys in March and from lighting to bedding to kitchen, rif and I have been pretty hands on throughout. We even sought advice from three interior designers for some ideas on how to do up our place. All three designers suggested a [...]

Reuben Hills, Sydney
Reuben Hills was another café rif and I checked out for breakfast and we really enjoyed the food. Just a 10-minute walk from Central Station, the café is tucked away in Albion Street in Surry Hills – fairly easy to find. I liked the décor at Reuben Hills – the interior reminded me of Toby’s [...]

Scusa, Intercontinental Jakarta MidPlaza
When rif and I stayed at Intercontinental Jakarta in June, we also dined at Scusa, the hotel’s award winning Italian restaurant. The restaurant is elegant yet trendy, with an open kitchen, wood-fire oven and charcoal grill. It was nearing the end of the white asparagus season but we managed to try a few...

Thai Cooking Class at The Pavilion, The Datai Langkawi
Cooking is something many people assume Im not able to do or at least thats what I deduced from the almost zero invitations to participate in cooking classes. A friend who works in hotel PR admitted to me she only invites me to food reviews and not the cooking classes because she...

Goon Wah XO Fish Head Noodle, Kuchai Lama
rif has been talking about the XO fish head noodles at Goon Wah in Kuchai Lama which opens only during weekdays from 9am to 3pm. Seeing how I’ve been up to my eyeballs at work, I never got the chance to check this place out until a few weeks back. Goon Wah is a no-frills [...]

Interview
In my years of working, I’ve gone through a number of interviews before securing the position(s) I want. My first interview got me my first job just 2 weeks after graduating, and I remember having sweaty palms despite the freezing cold room. Over time, I got better and more confident when attending...

Top 10 Food To Eat in Kuantan
Kuantan used to be a place I’d visit at least twice a year because back in his audit days, rif was stationed there for a month or two. When I went over for the weekend, we’d explore the area for good eats. Given our hectic schedules these days, I don’t foresee us revisiting anytime soon. [...]

Bangsar Babe Blog Header
When rif told me he wanted to replace my first blog header, I was very hesitant to do so. But seeing how he’s done so much and made the blog progress so much under his wing, I knew he was somewhat right. It was time to change. We actually had the blog header prepared last [...]

Pork Satay at Lung Ann, Melaka
Pork satay is always on our must-eat list whenever rif and I are in Melaka. There’s just something about these skewered pork chunks that leaves us craving for more. Xiang Ji has always been our regular pork satay place because the shop is always open (at least whenever I’m in Melaka) and the satay is...

Home Updates
It’s been a crazy few weeks for both rif and I, as we’ve been going through details, looking at furniture and all the nitty gritty things for our new home. While I’m excited about finally having my own place (and kitchen), the entire process is tedious and sometimes, frustrating. The developer’s...

Two Good Eggs, Sydney
Growing up, rif and I always wanted a little café of our own. But this dream of ours was put on hold to make way for ambition, career progression and other life responsibilities. Over the years, this dream of our cosy café was pushed further back in my mind until recent events. I haven’t been [...]
