babe_kl writes: What do you normally do with your left over roasted duck be it homemade or store bought???So far I've done a Roasted Duck and Baby Tomatoes Angel Hair Pasta.My mom gave me one half of a frozen roasted duck which I didn't want to reheat in the oven. So mom told me to braise it with preserved soy beans (min see). What I did was chop up the duck into smaller pieces. Minced a large handful of shallots and a few cloves of garlic, set aside separately.In some hot oil, saute and sweat the shallots till fragrant before adding garlic. Continue to saute before putting in the minced preserved soy beans. Stir ... read more

babe_kl writes: No no, Babe in the City - KL was not bestowed with Superbrands Malaysia status but was invited to participate in Brand's Blogger Challenge. Brand's as in the familiar green labelled glass bottled essence of chicken !When I first received the email, I was kinda surprised why a normal food blogger was picked instead of one of those intellectual bloggers, you know what I mean??? No?? I tell you why... cos this is no any ordinary challenge! It's a first ever challenge between Malaysia bloggers and Singapore bloggers... YES, I kid you not!Since I knew very well I won't be able to make it as it will be held on a weekday and in Singapore, I ... read more

babe_kl writes: Just as my past visit to Nyonya Colors at 1 Utama, this round at The Gardens did not disappoint us. We loved the Nyonya inspired decor, let alone the colourful, pretty and tantalising kuih-muih on display which is kinda evil as they call out "bite me, bite me" whilst you queue to order and pay for your food.Capt'n Hook had Nasi Lemak Pandan with Chicken Rendang. I stole some bites and totally loved the fragrant pandan infused steamed rice! Look how generous the portion of chicken.Boiboi picked plain old Chee Cheung Fun (flat ... read more

babe_kl writes: Sometime back, I brought boiboi to Marmalade Kafe for his dinner whilst his daddy went off to run some errands on a Saturday. Ever since he could read, I would usually ask him to check out the menu and order whatever fancies him (*ahem* but the mummy still have veto power!). Sighhh but my boiboi tends to zeroed into Pasta section and pick lasagna, no matter where we go. His favourite place for lasagna would always be Delicious and I tell you... he even remembered the name for this dish - Classic Beef Lasagna... no need to read menu!!! *roll eyes*And so as with Marmalade Kafe... he went and pick the same old beef lasagna (RM20.00) plus a ... read more

babe_kl writes: Baby Nai You Bok Choy are small and compact with curled, glossy and broad dark green leaves; and have short creamy white stems. These are sweeter than normal Baby Bok Choy.Clean them throughly especially the inner stems as grit tends to stay in there. Soak with some salt water and you're ready to go. The simplest way to cook them is stir-fry with some oil and chopped garlic in a hot wok. Sprinkle in some salt and water to cook them through which is like less than 5 mins since I liked mine crunchy. Serve ... read more

babe_kl writes: My friends and I decided to check out this Dessert's Bar at swanky Menara Hap Seng. Since there isn't many patrons, service was quick and attentive as it's still early. Even though each time I pass by this place and it seems empty, surprisingly the patrons slowly coming in as lunch hour wore on. Other than desserts, I could smell delish Illy coffee aroma from the next table. Hopefully business could sustain here.We shared the following desserts. First up was Mangorita (RM10.00). A mango pudding sits in a margarita glass topped with a large scoop of lemon sorbet drizzled a mango and mint sauce. Generous portion of mango cubes (since there isn't any dragon fruit that ... read more

babe_kl writes: Here are more ways to enjoy a regular can of corned beef... or rather one can, 2 ways :DI've read in a blog about those char charn teng (local cafes) in Hong Kong serves corned beef with egg on toasts. The pic seems like corned beef omelette so I pandai-pandai (cleverly) just stir-fry the corn beef for a while with a sprinkle of black pepper before breaking in the eggs. So here's one style... eaten in between two slices of bread or toasts (not pictured) with chilli sauce was a wholesome goodness!Next, I brown some chopped onions with some ... read more

babe_kl writes: Menara Hap Seng, formerly known as MUI Plaza, had underwent a dramatic change under the new owner. It's no longer a drably building both inside and outside. The transformation was vast, so much so many would not be able to recognise this was formerly MUI Plaza. In place of the empty space in front of the building above the carpark, they have constructed an extension of 2 floors over the driveway. At night, you can be mesmerised with the strips of lights that changes colour on the glass and metal facade.The ground floor banking halls and empty shop lots made way for a cool and swanky place for retail, well-being and of course, food therapy. So now the ... read more

babe_kl writes: This corner lot Kopitiam Soon Lee does not serve ordinary kopitiam food but excellent grilled seafood and dai chow (stir-fried) dishes. I've started visiting here with my parents more than 1o years ago but of late we were too busy exploring the new places in and around Kepong to be bothered to travel this far. When I'm back to my own home, hubby and I are always having problem deciding where to eat, hence once drizzling evening, we headed here from some wholesome seafood.We were given pictured menu wooohooo what a great thing hahaha... but there were simply too many good stuff to choose from, quite a headache leh :p Sighhhh very hard to please Malaysians huh?... read more
