vkeong writes: Mid-Autumn festival is just around the corner, so let me show you some homemade jelly mooncakes I bought from my colleague. Mooncakes have certainly evolved much from the traditional lotus paste, red bean and mixed nuts variations. Now there’s even dragon fruit, chocolate, coffee, sugarless and even ice cream mooncakes! This year, my family did not buy any branded mooncakes like Kam Lun Thai, Tai Thong or Overseas because they are too pricey. Homemade ones are equally good and so much cheaper. The jelly mooncakes are sold at RM28 per box, which is RM7 per piece. The mooncakes come in 4 flavors: Dragonfruit, ... read more

boo_licious writes: Ikan Bakar Stall Jalan Bellamy - check out those cocklesGetting to this particular Ramadan Bazaar has been a yearly ritual for me which I have a love-hate relationship with. I absolutely love the selections here but I absolutely hate the lack of parking around this area. Section 14 is famed for their lack of parking at all hours and with the onset of this Ramadan Bazaar, it gets even worst with cars haphazardly parked. I literally went round the area for what felt like a million times before patience won and I scored a space.Ikan Bakar stall nearer to the entrance of the bazaar with cockles ... read more

boo_licious writes: Making Popiah BasahI realised that most of the stalls found at these Ramadan Bazaars don't change much year by year. Hence I'm not snapping so many pictures this time round because I had taken the same items last year. Only if something catches my interest, I will take it. What was interesting this time round was more people seem to favour this small stall at the side of the carpark for Popiah Basah versus the bigger Power Popiah place. I guess it must taste good as the line was never ending.Nasi Ayam Kampung GorengI liked the look of this ... read more

boo_licious writes: I have a soft spot when it comes to knick-knacks especially those found at the 100 Yen shops scattered all over the Klang Valley. It's a great place to pick up Japanese items including cookware and snacks. Although I do love these shops, I try not to spend too much time there since my weakness for those tiny items will mean I'll end up buying them. We recently discovered that the 100 Yen shop in SS2 had converted their shop frontage to include a small stall selling Charmy Snow Ice. If I am not mistaken, this is something not new to KL'lites as I remember ... read more

rokh writes: Before this, during the summer at the other side of the world, the food blogging communities had gone into the frenzy of making icy desserts which got me totally hype up and weak to my knees. After all, living in this part of the world where it is practically summer everyday, it seems so right to have my icy treats all the time. I love the local favourite is of course such as ais kacang, sai mai lou and cendol, but sometimes, some dessert are just universal, yes, that is ice cream. I believe it is one dessert that no one can say no to, besides chocolate of course.Well, after getting bombarded ... read more

rokh writes: 11.02 amJ and I got Jalan Penang (road) for a fix of something icy, this time it is cendol. But it is not like the ordinary cendol we can get others places as this one apparently is Teochew style.We ordered for a bowl and got into the restaurant, where this stall is parked right outside. This restaurant, charged extra rm0.40 if you ordered the cendol into their premise. I guess they can’t earn much judging that everyone drinks from the stall outside instead of their drinks. We obliged nonetheless as we wanted a place to sit ... read more
