RSS FeedGreetings from the land of ‘CATS’….I have been having a rather relaxing time eating and eating and eating…..just before we flew back, I got on the scale just to test if it was working because we wanted to weigh whether our luggage was overloaded, I was 4 kgs lighter than my normal weight, I told [...]

Remodelled sausage, pepper & onion sub
January 18th, 2012 
Sharon The word de-constructed has been used too much till it becomes rather overrated. Elizabeth Falkner, the ninja chef, said she’d rather use the word remodelled, so I’m going with that too. This dish is made with the last batch of hot Italian sausage mix. If I had had some hot dog buns, I would’ve made [...]
Biscuits and Gravy
January 16th, 2012 Sharon Ahhhh….biscuits and gravy, doesn’t the name just subtly screams out comfort? I came across biscuits and gravy a lot watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, the intrigue got deeper. I don’t know if they serve this anywhere in KL/PJ area. If you happen to know, give me a holler!

So [...]

January 11th, 2012 Sharon This quintessential dish for folks in Sitiawan is much celebrated and loved and my husband is no exception. A friend from the same hometown posted a picture of the ko ro she cooked up in FB and I managed to get in contact with her to obtain the recipe. She gave me the ingredients and [...]
Char Siew Pork (BBQ Pork)
January 8th, 2012 Sharon I was having lunch with a friend the other day and she was complaining that ‘char siew, siu yok fan‘ (BBQ pork and Crispy Pork Belly with Rice) nowadays costs like RM6.50 here. I have been out of the employment scene ever since my son was born so I haven’t been eating out all that [...]
