One of the things we talked about was Bangkok -- the girls, the city and how I got ripped off the first time I went. But the food was good. And I couldn’t find anything close to the real deal in KL. Basil Thai Nudle Bar fell into the same category. While the food was alright, I thought it was too localised and ...

bangsar-babe writes: My dad loves sending me random emails about funny quotes, quizzes and trivia questions. Just to play along, I did one test, which involved rating my 4 favourite animals. I chose Pig, Cow, Sheep and Dog. Usually, one would choose the animals they want as a pet. But I chose the animals I wanted to eat (with the exception of dog). I love pork, followed closely by beef. Since we’re talking about pork, here’s what I ate over the weekend -- the SS15 ...
bangsar-babe writes: Growing up, the playground at Jalan Bangkung used to be my turf. Around my area, the neighbours had older children (10-15years older) so my siblings and I had no one to play with. The playground was the best thing there at that time. Then along the row of shops, there was a 7-11 where we discovered slurpee. And Tea for Two, where my dad would order me fish and chips, and I’d sit quietly at a corner while he had his business meeting (I’m easily bribed with food). ...

Located along Jalan Universiti (opposite University Hospital), I never knew it existed until a good friend told me about it. The place has a homely feel with a nice ...
bangsar-babe writes: Many new acquaintances ask if I really eat the food I blog about. They say I don't look as if I love to eat. Recently at events, I talked to a few people and told them I wrote about food. These are some of the comments I got:"You're very skinny for a food writer."“You don’t look like you eat much.”“No offence, but I DON'T TRUST SKINNY FOOD WRITERS.” ...
bangsar-babe writes: Had to wear something pink for the Che Che New York launch in Mid Valley, but I don't have anything pink in my wardrobe. So I took my sister's pink ring and painted ny nails bright pink with her nail polish. Walking out of the house, I felt so "barbie." >.< But, in exchange for the 2 hours of feeling like Barbie, I got to choose a handbag.........

Service was friendly. The staff always had a smile on their face. In less than a week, I noticed some improvement in their coffee and food. The cappuccino shakerato (RM9.50) ...

My favourite roast duck place in KL was a restaurant called De’Champion Duck in Damansara Utama, but it closed down in 2008. After asking around, I learnt that the original branch was located in Kepong.“Let’s look for it!” I said enthusiastically. ...
