qwazymonkey writes: I'm just gonna come right out and say it, "My iPhone 3Gs drowned and died on me."It's a relief being able to say that out loud now. In a ludicrous and daft moment over the weekend, I decided to take my phone to the toilet with me. As I was unzipping my pants, the phone slipped right off my fingers and landed inside the stool throne in a matter of a second. I could only utter an "Oh F**k!" before I quickly reached my hands inside and fished it out. I profusely pat ...

SimpleGirl writes: Few months back I passed by this pan mee shop during lunch time, it was super crowded, wanted to try for a long time, finally...got to try and verify the quality of the food here. Overall, the food was satisfactory!I ordered chili pan mee, just to compare with the PAN MEE shop at station 18. The chili pan mee here at Peking Pan Mee is more spicy and pan mee texture is more bouncy, I quite like it! I would say this is better than the one at Station 18!...

Daniel Hung writes: When working in Fusionopolis, lunch breaks on casual Fridays tend to be more elaborated as everyone senses the weekend coming! Craving for something different apart from the usual hawkers and food courts, we took a little trip down to Rocky Master!A mere 5 minutes shuttle bus ride away, Biopolis played host to numerous restaurants and eateries, all of which were pretty crowded during lunchtime. Thankfully, turnover at Rocky Master was rather fast, as we managed to get seats after awhile of pondering over its mostly western menu!Lemonade ($2.50), Mushroom Soup...

Cokeworld Citizen writes: I love milk but it is only when I traveled to Singapore that I learned there are actually a whole lot more options. Recently I found Sky Fresh Milk. Don't get me wrong. I just want to share with the you all what I like :D Anyway, the milk brand has appeared on the chiller shelves (Gurney Cold Storage) for quite a long time already. Verdict? Pura (too expensive, RM15+ for 2 litre), Greenfield (not available in local stores but Coffee Bean Gurney Plaza is using it) and Farm House (also good but getting more expensive).Can you imagine Farm House started at RM3.30 many many years ago and now they are priced at RM7.50. That's more than 100% ...

keropok man writes: You might have seen the advertisement on TV. The KFC Egg Tart. Advertising does influence and subliminally tell you, you want to have it, doesn't it? We succumbed when 2 friends asked if we would want to have dinner at KFC. *** This was the 2 egg tarts that we had last week night. How does it taste? Not bad, not bad at all! It was warm, eggy, and the slightly burnt top makes it smell really good. Can't believe it is KFC doesn't it? Just yesterday, I saw my colleague eating egg tarts for breakfast, and I jokingly ...

ieat writes: Har Cheong Gai $8Once in a while I find myself doubting my own tastebuds.  This happens when I visit a stall that is highly recommended by many people but come away feeling that I must have gone on a day when the chef has decided to take the day off.I have waitied for a very long time to eat at Ban Leong Wah Hoe Seafood.  I have been warned that this place can get so crowded that you have to wait for a while before being able to get a seat. This place is also very highly recommended by our facebook fans and word ...

myfoodsirens writes: I’ve been wanting to try out the food at The French Stall back when it first opened its first outlet in Little India but somehow, didn’t get around to doing it. Its formula of serving French fare without frills in a coffee shop setting is apparently quite a winning one since it has expanded by opening another branch in MacPherson. No reason to put off a visit now that it’s nearer to home! I was really happy when I saw the executive salmon set on the menu cuz it’s my “dream menu”, i.e. what I would have ordered ala carte anyway. Executive Salmon Set (from $28.80++): Leeks with vinaigrette dressing;...

Jon writes: I am a big fan of dim sum, especially siew mai, ching pai kuat, prawn chee cheong fun, lor mai kai and of course the char siew pau and porridge. These are normally the 'must haves' at a dim sum outing. Some of the favorites dim sum outlets are the famous one at Taman Connaught, next to CIMB and the unforgettable Overseas at Central Market in the good old days. Closer to home, i.e. Kajang, we don't have much choice for dim sum. We have Restoran Mexim Tim Sum right in the heart of Kajang, facing the main road heading to Semenyih, almost ...

bangsar-babe writes: I’m not an outdoor person, so asking me to go on a camping trip is like asking a stingy boss for a pay-rise. The answer is most likely “NO”. rif likes the outdoor, but unfortunately for him, he’s on his own when it comes to hiking or trekking.However, we both enjoy going for getaway weekends, and would always try to squeeze one in at least once in two months. One of our regular getaway places is his family's apartment ...

crizlai writes: If you need a casual dining place or even for a business meet up place, where would you go? You can start with Caffe Strada, a nice pork free restaurant at Krystal Point, Bayan Baru, where all your indoor and al fresco dining needs would always be served well. Upon entering, the simple yet sophisticated setup would give you that homely feel. Thanks to Alan Choong, a group of the Penang bloggers managed to pay this restaurant a visit. We started with some appetizers, namely the Green Garden Salad (RM8.90). It was a refreshing start as the dish had all the crunchy vegetables such as iceberg lettuce, ...
