One day, after a long while of not having a bowl of Sarawak Laksa, I travelled with a group of friends to the outer reaches of the city. Alas, the stall was missing! What follows now is a tale of perseverance, adventure, and some pretty darn good laksa.More »

Pasar Ramadhan Sg. Pencala

This year’s bazaars have been more than disappointing. My usual favourites of Taman Tun and Bangsar have garnered poor reviews. I haven’t yet been to the ones in Section 14 and Section 17 of Petaling Jaya because I’m scared they’ll let me down,…   More »

That tender fall-off-the-bone lamb. Mounds of golden fragrant rice with spice-massaged chicken buried like succulent treasures. Hummus- creamy ambrosia on warm pita. Eggplant done the most insanely delicious ways, baked tender in a moussaka, grilled with…   More »

This is my Dad’s perennial favourite every time he visits KL. First, the service is impeccable. Never mind that we were served by a mainly Nepali staff, but they are really efficient and helpful. Second, the portions are huge and generous. Even if you…   More »

It’s not everyday that I can go for a decadent brunch, especially one with a free pour of lovely bubbly champagne. I had heard a lot of good things about the delicious offerings at Prego and was eager to sample them. I found though that it’s impossible…   More »

The Wok

Dining at The Wok is like eating at your nyonya aunty’s place. Marble-topped tables, antiques everywhere, the smell of belacan permeating the air. Everyone I know who has eaten here left the restaurant raving. I know it is a terrible onus to place on…   More »

After recently learning how to cook capati and tortilla breads at the FC kitchen, I’ll never understand why a place would choose to precook and then reheat their capatis resulting in a dry and stale flatbread. It’s an extremely simple mix of atta…   More »

I used to frequent the pasar malam in Taman Melawati when I was younger, always getting fascinated by the cacophony of sounds and myriad of colours. I made my way through the fruits and veg section, the butchers and the dried goods and arrived at my favorite…   More »
