Passion Oh Passion!

The month of March is certainly a month of celebrations for me. Because it is a month that is filled with birthdays… And not just one, or two… but SIX birthdays of my closest friends all jammed packed into just one week of March! These wonderful people have shown me much love and comradeship over… Continue reading Passion Oh Passion!

Penang’s Very First Nasi Kandar?

And it is a known fact in our family that he gets up really early before the crack of dawn, carries out his daily chores and usually stops by for a quick breakfast at a nasi kandar stall of… Continue reading Penang’s Very First Nasi Kandar?

Lingzie’s Tummy Treats Turns Three! (and a Bubbly Giveaway!)

Klang Bak Kut Teh @ GohTong Jaya, Genting Highlands

It’s rather odd to find Klang Bak Kut Teh at Genting Highlands. And even odder still that we chose to eat there.

Penang Special Samosa @ Little India

I’ve always been a big fan of Indian food though my knowledge about it is still very much in its infancy stage. I love how spices add so much depth and flavour to otherwise ordinary ingredients.

If you’re in a hurry, got a plane to catch or if you just don’t particularly fancy your dining partner(s) and want to keep things short and sweet, then, I’m afraid, Suffolk House Restaurant might not be the place for you.
