Pang’s – Fiery Cuisine
Spice lovers rejoice! I stumbled upon this restaurant whose owner must have a tongue made of leather. The food here is hot. I mean HOT! So hot, I felt that my breath could cause a sunburn on your face when I talk to you. But seriously, I am not into real hot food. So when […]
Care Corner Orphanage
I would just like to take some time out from food to highlight the plight of orphans in Thailand. In Singapore, the problem of orphaned children is not common, so most of us may not realise what is happening in places like Thailand. Unwanted children are the fault of their parents, sometimes justified, oftentimes not. […]
Gu Zhao Ren Taiwan Porridge – Comfort Food
Nothing satisfies like a nice bowl of hot porridge on a cold rainy day — sign of a real chinaman. Anyway, there are two types of porridge generally available. Taiwanese porridge and Teochew porridge. Both are fine with me when I am seeking comfort food. Imagine my joy when I realise that there was a […]
Hong Kong Tea House – 70’s HK cuisine
Have you ever had a HongKonger look at you funny when you tell him that what he is eating is a a plate of Hong Kong Mee? They will vehemently insist there is no such thing in Hong Kong. Well, the time has come to get one back. Now you can head down to the […]
Pu Tien (Heng Hwa) Restaurant
We chinese are blessed with such a diversity of different cuisines unique to the myriad of dialect groups. In the old days, our forefathers came from most of the southern coastal provinces, thus we have grown up with Teochew, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hainan etc cuisines. Nowadays there is an influx of chinese migrants from all over […]

Crispy Roast Chicken
Had lunch at one of my regular haunts. This shop is little known outside of Simei, but serves one of the best “Roast Chicken” in Singapore. I put Roast Chicken in inverted commas because it is not actually roasted, but deep fried, very much like the crispy skin chicken that you get in resaturants. After […]
Is there Food In Heaven?
Food is such an integral part of everyday life and there is nothing better then finding really good food, except when the really good food is also really cheap (Ai Piee You Ai Qiee, Hua Ai Zhao Lui – want it cheap, want it good and hope to get some change). So are we going […]

Zi Yean Dim Sum, La Mian
Most people know about Zi Yean’s Cze Char, but you may not know that since they moved to their new premises a year ago, they have started offering Dim Sum and La Mian. Dim Sum is an excellent way for the whole family to enjoy a Sunday brunch together which is why I am always […]
Foo House Bar & Cafe
Found another place to have a really nice hamburger! This burger has probably got the juiciest and beefy pattie I have had. Again, I insist that any self respecting burger should be made of chopped beef rather then mince. This one has got 220gm of shoulder beef and because shoulder beef has got a higher […]
