boo_licious writes: brown rice green tea mooncakeRecently, I was asked by Mrs. Jeanie Lee from New Formosa Restaurant whether I would review some Taiwanese mooncakes she is selling at her restaurant for charity. Since it was for a good cause, I agreed to sample some of their specialties. I was a little curious to also sample Taiwanese mooncakes and compare to our local ones to see their difference....

thenomadGourmand writes: A potential explosive mood was soothed the moment I walked into Annalakshmi at Jalan Berhala, Brickfields. I very nearly gaped open-mouth in wonderment as I was ushered into the restaurant. Never had I expected that Annalakshmi to be such a posh; even at the point of being classy, restaurant. Soft indian prayers music played in the background, patrons are greeted warmly at the door & politely enquired of the number of guests; before being ushered to their seats....

Food POI writes: When you are heading down to Melaka for a weekend trip. Obviously you will be having chicken rice for breakfast on your first day. How about the second day? You will for sure want to try something else. On my last weekend escapade to Melaka, I went and checkout this place called Yong Moh Coffee Stall which recommended by my friend.

It serves one of the best and most value-for-money meat buns accompanied by ...

That was the case with Cocotte, which I was lucky enough to try last night, since my friends did their homework far in advance with the booking.

This happened last weekend, when Saucer and I decided to bring his mom for lunch. I did some blog hopping prior to that and decided to try out Nambawan which was famous for pork burger.

So we went in, sat down and a waitress gave us menus. We looked through the menu, discussed on what to order and about ...

ieat writes: Ok, I haven't written much about Goreng Pisang because, well, its deep fried food you know, and so it has always been something I eat once in a long while.But this "while" has been a little too long. I have neglected to write about Goreng Pisang which is also part a of the fabric of our hawker culture.  Goreng Pisang (its really Pisang Goreng in Malay)  means "Deep Fried Bananas" and is Malay or Indonesian in origin.  When you eat Pisang Goreng from a Malay stall, it is often made with a gigantic banana, properly called a plantain.  Plantains are less sweet than the banana that we are familiar with and ...
