Nosh is fundamentally about hearty, comfort food and I’ve become a regular since in the last 7 months or so because the food has been consistently good. At least for me, because I tend to order the same thing every time I’m there. The latest menu at Nosh (available July August) features their...
My first encounter of asam pedas was when rif’s parents invited me over to lunch when we were still dating. Prior to that, I assumed asam pedas and asam fish curry were the same. That lunch was an introduction and education to a variety of Melaka Nyonya food – and I have to say, both [...]
I’ve been compiling all the prizes for Bangsar Babe Blog Giveaway 2013 and they are pretty damn awesome. Heck, some of them I haven’t even got to experience for myself! For a mid-year giveaway, this contest has received great response – I dare say even better than the giveaway last year. Again, I will...
When rif and I visited Hatyai last month, we stayed at V.L. Hatyai Hotel in the city centre since it seemed pretty convenient to get around based on Google Maps. Plus, pricing was fairly reasonable – we paid about RM100++ per room per night. Our room was decent in size and I was glad we [...]
Aloft Kuala Lumpur Sentral is offering diners an A-List Malaysian Feast of local Malay delicacies this Ramadhan. For RM88+ per pax, one can break fast with an assortment of dishes including stuffed whole lamb kuzi with nasi briyani, nasi lemak, rendang ayam, satay and roasted chicken. The buffet line is...
rif and I went to the Po Lin Monastery where the Tian Tan Buddha statue (also known as the Big Buddha) is when we were in Hong Kong. Of all the places we planned to visit, this was not high on my list because I’m generally not big on temples or place of worship for [...]
It’s almost fasting month, and most hotels and restaurants are geared up for the occasion – each boasting their version of a luxurious Ramadhan spread. While I’m not privy of all the Ramadhan buffets in town, I did try the “Buka Puasa” Fare at Mosaic in Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur. This year,...
Last month, I joined rif and a few of his friends on a road trip up north – to Hat Yai. I’ve never been a fan of such excursions until I met him and this has become one of my favourite ways to travel. When you drive, you see and take in so much more [...]
Theres only 28 days left to the closing date of Bangsar Babe Blog Giveaway 2013. Weve been receiving quite a number of entries since we launched it in June thank you to those who participated! If you dont already know, this years prizes comprise hotel room stays (local...
I know of someone who once threatened to dump the person she was dating over a plate of Chinese mixed rice. Reason being, she felt she was ‘worth more’ than that humble meal. I cannot fathom how people can measure their self worth that way. So ridiculous. Chap fan happens to be one of the [...]
When I first arrived at The Andaman Langkawi, I was ushered to The Restaurant on the ground floor for a casual lunch of healthy and wholesome dishes. The Restaurant overlooks the resort’s swimming pool and guests have an option of dining indoors or outdoors for some sun. Among the appetizers I tried, my...
I’ve heard a great deal about the nasi lemak near San Peng flat, but Pudu isn’t my favourite place to venture into unless rif is driving. We were around the area when he decided to give this place a try. A Chinese auntie manages this nasi lemak stall with her daughter and the place was [...]
2 July, 2013 marks the 10th year rif and I have been together officially. Its been an exciting and challenging journey together, but Ive enjoyed every step of the way. Despite how we get on each others nerves occasionally, weve learnt to tolerate, forgive and figure things out.
My birthday celebration was a huge surprise. I thought it was going to be a quiet one because most of my friends told me they had plans already. rif took me to Tamarind Springs for dinner where I tucked into a glass of chardonnay and stuffed myself silly. Food was just alright by the way. [...]
Officially a year older. Thats the new Pandan Delicio from Nosh by the way. My favourite growing up cake and they do it very well. Available this July so go try!
Beef brisket noodle at Kau Kee Restaurant is one of the recommended things to eat when one visits Hong Kong. Like all the other popular food haunts in Hong Kong, Kau Kee gets super packed during peak hours. The menu is simple – there is now an English version for tourists and bananas like myself. [...]
In Hat Yai, one of the places one should visit is Khong Hae Floating Market, located 20 minutes away from the city centre. You can get there via taxi or rent a tuk tuk with a group of people – I opted for the latter since we were travelling with a group of friends. To [...]
As most of you know, I recently switched to using the Samsung Galaxy S4. Its been slightly over a month since I got this phone and so far, its been good. Save for some moments where I needed to get used to some of the phones functions. I especially like the dual camera feature and [...]
Since our trip to Hong Kong, rif and I have grown quite particular about the Chinese food we eat in KL. That said, I recently enjoyed a good lunch at Aunty Sim in Damansara Uptown over the weekend. The restaurant is divided into two floors – ground floor for quick meals and the upstairs serves [...]
While doing the photoshoot for Fashion Avenue, I thought it would be fun to include an outdoor shoot. This was the most difficult part of the project because Pavilion was crowded on a Saturday evening. But Im glad the photos turned out great. Thank you Mobster Studio! For those who havent...
