I'm A Butt Lover


It was sooo bad and yet it was sooo good. What was that??What are you thinking?? A sexy screen siren pouting while she delivers that line in a breathy husky voice? Whatever it was that she had that was so bad and yet was so good is obviously not what I had. So, PH what did you have? Was it naughty?

Korean BBQ Slow Cooker Ribs


I was at Cold Storage again when I discovered an aisle filled with Korean products. Anything Korean these days bring about a lot of excitement. I'm only into the food and I know nuts about K-pop or Korean melodramas. Something Korean caught my eye.

Curried Pumpkin


When I go to my regular Indian restaurant, I will take a peek at their dishes and hope that they have pumpkin. Most of the time they do. Sometimes the pumpkin is in chunks, sometimes a mixture of chunk and mush and at other times it is all mushy.

Coimbatore Chicken Briyani@Krishna Curry House


After our banana leaf lunch at Krishna Curry House, my brother and I returned as promised, for the briyani. My mum mentioned to us a while back that she wanted to eat briyani the next time she visits. So I told my brother that we should scout around for good briyani. I always find excuses to eat and this is a good one don't you think?

Nutella Ice Cream


I wanted to clear the fridge and I found two bottles of Nutella. One was half full while the other had less. I was thinking cookies....no, cake or maybe cheesecake..decisions decisions.

Thai Green Mango Salad


You know, I love mangoes. It's my favorite fruit. Eh, wait. Or is that durians? Or bananas? Hmmm... quite hard to choose. Let's say for now, it is mangoes.

Low Carb@Windmill


Just a day after our lunch date at Krishna Curry House, my brother and I were off to another eating spree. As vowed the day before, I was going to start my low carb eating plan immediately (which of course tanked a week later. Tsk!).

Loaded Cookies


First it was Loaded Brownies. Then it was Loaded Nachos. And now I have progressed to Loaded Cookies. And all these lead to one thing and one thing only - a loaded tummy.

Mango Yogurt Chiffon Cake


It has been awhile since I baked a chiffon cake. I was wondering if I could still remember how to make one and if it would turn out well. So which chiffon cake should I bake? Since mango is the theme for this month's Little Thumbs Up, mango chiffon cake it is!

My Curry Fix@Krishna Curry House


Two Saturdays ago, my brother and I found ourselves at Krishna Curry house, our favorite haunt for banana leaf rice. It was a much anticipated visit for me, who was still on a carbohydrate eating binge. Tsk!

Fudgy Buttermilk Chocolate Cake


I bought a carton of buttermilk to bake this cake for my mum but in the end I baked something else (this happened back in September). So I had a carton of buttermilk siting idle in the fridge. Buttermilk is not always available at the supermarket. So when I see it, I grab a carton, provided that the expiry date is still a long way off. I know I can make buttermilk at home by mixing lemon juice with milk but I want the fermented stuff, if you get what I mean.

Avocado, Garlic and Parsley Dressing


I know that the picture you should be looking at is the avocado dressing. But it was not pretty. Well, after two meat-free posts, are you happy to see bacon? I sure am!

Lohas@Uptown Damansara (CLOSED)


I finally made my way to Lohas to experience some good organic vegetarian food. I have been here a few times before but that was a long time ago. The first thing I ate here was the vegetarian nasi lemak.  I was amazed by how good it was. It was remarkable how the sambal and curry tasted almost like the regular thing.

My Meat-Free Salad


After my not so satisfactory outing at The Salad Bar, I simply had to make my own salad. As I mentioned before, I wanted to do penance for overindulging at a buffet. I ate too much meat and therefore, I needed to go meat-free at least for a day.
