Over the years, I have learnt to appreciate the bone-in, lip smacking, finger licking good Cantonese Roast Duck more than the delicate crepe-wrapped Peking Duck.

I was pretty excited about the media invite on 7th January 2016 to taste Chef Julian Tam’s Chinese New Year offerings. I have seen some promotions of Wo Peng on Groupon deals and they were always sold out. This was a great chance for me to get acquainted with some of Chef Tam’s signature dishes … Continue reading →

It’s been a while since I had dim sum in a proper restaurant. I say this because one can get dim sum in kopitiams and food courts but the mass produced fare tasted nothing close to those of an established restaurant’s Hong Kong-styled dim sum. Crystal Jade Kitchen is one of those establishments that is … Continue reading →

Last Thursday was Grandpa-to-be’s birthday and as I have mentioned he is not adventurous in food – Chinese cuisine, in particular, the Teochew and Cantonese are his main favourites. Thus, it was only natural we picked a Cantonese restaurant to celebrate his special day! Paradise Group’s Concept “Poised as a diners’ paradise for Oriental cuisine, … Continue reading →

Before we went to the Registry of Marriage on the 9th October 2014, Ryan gave us (Valerie’s family) a treat at one of our family’s favourites, 李白 – Li Bai Cantonese Restaurant @ Sheraton Towers Singapore. We’re training him to become the head of our household aka please-foot-the-bill-man, lol… Named after the famous Tang Dynasty … Continue reading →

Tony mentioned a no signboard fish ball noodles stall which comes highly recommended by Johor Kaki readers from Batu Pahat. He’d missed this stall during all his previous visits to Batu Pahat and was hoping that it would be opened today. As luck was on our side, the stall was opened for business that morning. … Continue reading →

It’s been a while since I went jalan jalan cari makan (walk walk looking for food) with Tony of Johor Kaki Blog and of course, like all previous trips, it’s always full of yummilicious treats!

Photographers (hobbyist and professionals) can be quirky and hot tempered but you get to form your own group with choice peeps whenever there’s a walkabout session. In this instance, I had great company although … Continue reading →

You didn’t think that I climbed all 66 steps at The Ruins of St. Paul’s and then scaled further up the Fortaleza do Monte without having a feast first, did you? 😉 Well, just before the old street walkabout, my friends brought me to 杜荣记美食 (Du Rong Ji Mei Shi) for brunch.

I have been wanting to try the colourful Xiao Long Bao (XLB) ever since we returned to Singapore but not until now did I finally get a chance to savour them. Although there were many eateries and restaurants selling them, the originator of the coloured and flavoured XLB is Paradise Dynasty. 小笼包 (xiaolongbao) translating to … Continue reading →
