We’ve run out of coffee and tea at home. I’ve been craving for Chinese tea for a few days but never had time to go replenish them. Until yesterday. I couldn’t do without any tea anymore so when I had a chance to drop by one of the hypermarkets today, I quickly headed to the [...]

Every retail business now seems to be running their own Privilege or Loyalty Card system. I walked into King’s Confectionery today to buy some Portuguese egg tarts and one of the staff shoved a brochure into my hands. It was about the application of a membership card for King’s Confectionery.
To apply, you need to pay [...]
If you enjoy nutritious and clear soups, one place that I would like to recommend is The Zun Express at Mid Valley. The Zun Express is part of the Eu Yan Sang group and they are located right next to Eu Yan Sang shop on the lower ground floor of The Gardens, Mid Valley.
The restaurant [...]
Yesterday I had lunch with a friend at Oriental Maju Palace. We ordered dim sum as they are famous for their dim sum dishes. We’ve been there a couple of times now but I kept forgetting to write about it. And oh, sorry no pictures to show because the food was always so irristible that [...]
I happen to be at Tropicana City Mall one afternoon looking for a decent place for a quick bite at lunch time. Then I came across a small burger outlet called Ninja Joe. Ninja Joe serves pork burgers so it is definitely non-halal. No other burgers if you are hoping for more variety.
The way to [...]
During the Chinese New Year period we were in Johor Bahru and we got some pineapple tarts and Chinese cookies from Lavender Cake Shop. I have to admit that in the beginning I wasn’t much of a fan. The only thing that caught my eyes were the nice packaging of the products. They come in [...]
Every year I just never know where to find great Chinese New Year cakes, cookies, snacks and those arrow roots crisps. All I do is just buy from stalls at the shopping malls and hope that they turn out nice.
But some of our friends actually have theirs specially ordered and they’re all apparently home-made. I [...]
I know John King has been around for quite a while now, but I only tried them just some 2 months back. I was told that the normal egg tarts and the durian tarts are hot items. So I tried them both. But I didn’t find them to be that exceptional. I’ve had better and [...]
Lately I haven’t been doing much food or restaurant reviews. The truth is that I haven’t been bringing my camera with me when we go out, so there are no pictures to show even though the places I tried are pretty good. And as you know, a picture paints a thousand words, so I thought [...]
I was buying a gift recently for someone who’s got a taste for luxurious things. Being a person who isn’t very creative, I thought a box of chocolates would be nice. Who doesn’t like luxurious chocolates every once in a while, right? And I also thought I can hardly go wrong with a sweet treat.
Don’t [...]
As we get older more matured, we tend to take our health more seriously and that’s when we start to care about how much calories we consume in our daily food intake, etc. How often do you go to a fast food outlet when you’re in your 30s? I bet a lot less often than [...]
Take a walk around the malls, bazaars and even on the walkways on streets and you’ll most likely find all kinds of stalls offering Raya goodies. From clothes to home decoration to food, it’s all such a colourful and eventful sight, don’t you think?
One of the things that I enjoy shopping for during this period [...]
It’s almost time of the year when the Chinese start to shop for moon cakes to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. We are definitely spoilt for choices when it comes to the flavours of moon cakes available, not to mention the many brands in the market too.
From the lesser known brands that cost about RM5 to [...]
Citibank is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and in conjunction with the celebrations, it’s offering its credit cardholders a suite of 50% dining deals in various restaurants for selected items. I saw the information in today’s full page advertisement and was trying to find the same information on its website but could not.
Some of [...]
I love visiting the food section of Marks & Spencer stores. They have such tempting and rich foods there, ranging from snacks like sweets and chocolates to delicious biscuits and cookies as well as some cooking sauces and wines.
I’ve always been a big fan of Marks & Spencer’s chocolate coated digestive biscuits. They’re rich but [...]
When I was first notified of a “eat all you can dim sum buffet” at Renassaince Hotel’s Dynasty Restaurant, I thought it was a great deal to be paying just RM22 per head to enjoy all that dim sum either for breakfast, brunch or lunch. For RM22 per person, a total of 22 dishes are [...]
