Bee Hwa Cafe, Penang
We have been following a food blogger/vlogger from Malaysia, Ceddy, and he’s recommending the char kuey teow on this place. Bonus: The food is muslim-friendly. A bit of note, Penang folks are not joking when they said their food is delicious ? There is this… joke/anecdote about food peddler. The more unfriendly the seller is,…

‘Delicious Rendezvous’ (SBS TV)
For the past several weeks, I have been feeling unmotivated. For most of the part, this is due to the prolonged lockdown here in Malaysia — specifically, Klang Valley area (Selangor and Kuala Lumpur are the two long-time runners of the highest cases on daily basis ?) However, things are picking up. The vaccination rate…

Cafe Chef Wan @ KL East Mall
Hey! I skipped blog for the past 2-3 weeks as my sinus infection blaring up. Unfortunately, it happened on the kids too. We actually suspect the current renovation works on our apartment building caused the sinusitis/allergy as it can be pretty dusty at times. Luckily, no fever. Recently, I’ve been listening to this. I heard…

Comfort Food
One day, one of my good friends texted me. “Hey, I’m alone with my daughter at home and she has been feeling awful for the past two days due to cold. Do you have some kind of dish that you usually whipped out for your kids when they are feeling unwell? I ran out of…

Sambal Goreng Kentang
Ooookay, I’m not super sure the English term for it, but it’s basically another Indonesian take at sambal (if we could put sambal on everything, we would—wait.) Kentang is potato, sambal is, well, sambal (chili paste — mixed with garlics, shallots, salt, sugar, pepper, and sometimes, shrimp paste,) and goreng means fried. This dish is…

For lunch, I had ketupat with oxtail soup. Oxtail itself is not a stranger for many culinary delicacies. Italian knows coda…

Opor Ayam
Hey! How are you folks? I’ve been pretty pumped up as tomorrow is Eid, and I’m going to enjoy my one week-long AFK (Away From Keyboard) vacation. The AFK was submitted way before the whole Covid-19 thing, but I decided to stick with it and do things that I can do at the house and…

Wedang Jahe
I have been having sinusitis infection for the past 3-4 days, and “annoyed” would be an understatement. I really hate sinusitis because unlike common cold virus, it refuses to go after 3 days. Sure, sinusitis is not contagious. But in this kind of situation? Try to blow your nose without people looking at you with…

Musang King
Twice in a year, usually on certain months, there will be a specific scent roaming the air nearby my neighborhood. His name is Sam, and he has durian plantation. When it’s durian season, he will put all of the year’s harvest to his truck and sell it directly to folks in Kuala Lumpur, just like…
