(Ok, maybe not really that new... this post is one of my backlog) An Xin Pork Shop took over the corner shop where the old Taman Megah's Secret Recipe used to be. If you know where is Bake with Yen or Chang Thung, you will surely come across this shop as they are all at the same row.At last. A shop only for POK! They sell pork leg, pork hand, the lean meat, the fatty three layer meat, the skin, the ears, ....the internals. But, this caught my eye.A little disappointed because the skin wasn't ... read more

vkeong writes: I have been wanting to try Tony Roma’s for long already, so I took the chance when I was in Pavilion a while ago. I don’t know much about Tony Roma’s actually, I thought it should be similar to other Western food restaurant like TGIF or Chilis. The biggest difference I notice among them would be the atmosphere. Tony Roma’s is quiet and somewhat formal, TGIF is party-like while Chilis is somewhere between them. Food wise, it is definitely more upscale and same goes for the price. Ordering ala carte would be too expensive. So, I decided to take the set lunch which is advertised as costing less than RM20 instead.... read more

babe_kl writes: **Non-Halal**I was lamenting to hubby one day that it must have been moons since I last drank Harm Choy Tong (Pickled Mustard Cabbage Soup in Cantonese) as my mom had stopped cooking that at home for years. According to one sinseh, this pickled mustard cabbage is bad for her knees. Sighhh...One day, we were eating at Fock Kee. Hubby asked me how come I didn't order Harm Choy Tong hahaha... I said I can make them myself. Moreover, Fock Kee serves complimentary soups for dinner :p. So the next day, I went to the market to grab some harm choy, tomatoes, soft tofu and some lean meat. I'm gonna use the guan tong (quick boil ... read more

vkeong writes: Northam Beach Cafe is a nicer type of hawker center in Penang along Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah. It is located right next to a beach hence the name. Northam Beach Cafe utilizes the open air concept so you could enjoy the wind coming from the sea. And because of the nice location, decoration and ample free parking space it is popular with the locals and tourists alike. The food, however is pretty much the same with the other hawker centers. But the mua chee here is quite special so it deserves a mention. Mua chee is my favorite snack when I was small. Who wouldn’t love that chewy ... read more

Lyrical Lemongrass writes: My two idols, Fatboybakes and Boolicious were espousing the virtues of baking.  I listened keenly, wanting so much a little bit of this happiness which was theirs.  They made baking seem…..almost….magical. So with a grocery list in hand, I went to Bangsar Village to get the ingredients for Cream Cheese Marbled Brownies, a recipe which Fatboybakes had referred to as the easiest recipe ever posted on his blog.  It was like God saying how easy it was for Him to create the world in 7 days. Fatboybakes had indicated that he had taken only 10 minutes to blitz the ingredients together.  I figured that since I wasn’t an experience baker, I’d ... read more

Robyn Eckhardt writes: The Philippines is blessed with a substantial body of good food writing, both serious literature and research by the likes of Edilberto Alegre and the late Doreen Fernandez, and less 'learned' but nonetheless enjoyable books by professional and amateur food lovers. An hour spent browsing the shelves in the food writing/cookbook section of a Manila bookstore never fails to deliver something surprising and delightful. In December I found a couple of gems: a thirty-year-old publication by the Philippine Banana Export Industry Association called 100+1 Banana Recipes, and a slim paperback called Pulutan: From the Soldiers' Kitchen. The first is what its title suggests, a straightforward collection of recipes (written in both Tagalog and ... read more

Lyrical Lemongrass writes: “Welcome back,” he said. It was a Saturday evening, and I was chuckling to myself when his words interrupted my reverie. “Whatever for?” I asked. “You’re back.” He smiled. “So we’re going to Prime to celebrate.” “Back? I never went anywhere.” I looked hard for the bump on his head where he would have knocked his head on the cangkul. “I thought I had lost you this past week.  You were turning into a grumpy little thing and your language had become quite colourful,” he said. He was right.  I had turned into a grouch. A grumpy cynical grouch. It ... read more

vkeong writes: Because Nasi Kandar originates from Penang, it is no doubt the best ones are here too. This dish has managed to do very well in Penang with restaurants coming up at every corner. And that’s even with the tough competition among Pelita, Kayu, Kassim Mustafa and many others. Recently I have moved away from dining in these chain restaurants because of the expensive price. Shariff Nasi Kandar Istimewa in Gelugor has got to be one of the cheapest nasi kandar stall in the whole Penang island. And because Shariff’s Nasi Kandar is not only cheap but also great tasting, many people would line up as early ... read more
