Ichiro Sushi Bar, Isetan 1 Utama
During my first visit to Ichiro Sushi Bar, I sat at the corner of this small and spartan space. The restaurant was cosy, with a steady stream of loyal customers accustomed to the Japanese chefs behind the counter. I ordered from one of the lunch sets available and at just RM25, it was good value [...]

De’ Champion Duck, Damansara Utama
Ever since I tried De Champion Duck in 2008, I’ve been going frequently for my roast duck fix. To me, they serve one of the more consistent roast ducks in Klang Valley. They also started serving some pretty awesome honey char siew, and that too, became my regular order whenever I dine at the shop.

The Peak, Hong Kong
When rif and I were in Hong Kong, we visited The Peak (highest point on Hong Kong island) to enjoy the view of the city and its harbour. I’m not a fan of touristy spots in general, but since it was one of the must-see places in Hong Kong, I went anyway. Even on a [...]

Hong Kong Push Cart Noodles
Push cart noodles (che zhai mein) are a popular treat in Hong Kong where vendors run their business from small carts along the roadside. Well they did in the 1950s. Now they mostly operate from small stalls in residential areas with minimal tables and chairs. I tried a bowl for supper, not too long...

Tai Hing Roast, Hong Kong
In Hong Kong, you’re bound to walk past several shops with siew yuk (roast pork), char siew (barbecue roast pork), roast goose and roast chicken hanging in the window display. Mei treated rif and I to a meal of roast goose and siew yuk at Tai Hing at Causeway Bay, along with a few other [...]

I’ve been to a number of high-end spas but V Botanical Spa is the only one so far, with treatment rooms perched on a hillside with a view of Datai Bay. [...]

Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice, Pudu
I’ve heard good things about the claypot chicken rice at Heun Kee in Pudu but getting to that part of town from Bangsar can be a nightmare. Moreover, I’m not a big fan of claypot chicken rice so I didn’t see the urgency of checking this place out. Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice has been [...]

Sweet on NOSH
NOSH turned six months old and to celebrate the occasion, the two masterminds – Ann and Judith – came up with ten new desserts specifically for the month of May and June. I’ve been a fan of the food ever since my first visit but I always order the same dishes. Like seriously, always. This [...]

Curry Mee at Restoran 168, Pudu
My friends and colleagues find it bizarre that I can eat curry mee for lunch three days in a row, without getting sick of it. Whether it’s curry mee from KL, Ipoh or Penang, I love them all. While the curry mee from the latter two states are more sought after, KL curry mee can [...]
