In Vietnam, do as the Vietnamese do. Eat Pho and Drink Vietnamese Coffee! So this is what I did. This is part of the street food tour. I got on the bike and the tour guide zooms in and out of the flower market, pass many inter-junctions and turn right when the lights are red. …
Zooming around Ho Chi Minh city in a swarm of motorbikes is surreal. Fortunately, I am a bike rider. I used to go to school in a motor bike when I had my bike license. If you are not used to ridding pillion on a bike, this definitely will freak you out! The scene is …
I was in Vietnam for my holidays. I tried to book a package, but the package tour from Malaysia was only in Mandarin. Unfortunately that is the state of affairs nowadays. A lot of people, I mean Chinese people tend to send their children to Chinese school. So English is not so popular now. English …

I reach Singapore as scheduled. My connecting flight to Kuala Lumpur International Airport is 1 hour. So all connecting flight passengers have less than an hour to get to the boarding gate.

I was in London a few weeks back to celebrate my daughter’s graduation, and decided to do a food tour. We took this opportunity to visit London Borough Market. I have been there several times over the years, and each time it has changed slightly. This time I noticed that it has really expanded!! There …

On my recent trip back to Malaysia, I planned to travel to several places – China and some local Malaysian tourist destinations. Although I am Malaysian, and have seen quite a bit of the country, there are some new interesting places that pop up or being recently discovered. My trip to China was fraught with …
I haven’t been posting regularly. This is because I am so busy with Nyonya Recipe Shop. I have been having to do all things by myself as I am the only one working on it and I have to attend a lot of digital training. Alas, I am not able to implement what I have …

I was in the September Hinckley Sunday Munch. I missed the Hinckley Feast 2018 as I was too late in booking. This is because I only decided to have a stall to test my products early this year. I finally took the plunge to try it out near where I live, and June was my …
I have been to several food fairs this summer. Last week it was the Hinckley Feast. My girls and I went on the Saturday when it was a gorgeous day. On Sunday, it was a bit cloudy and I was not sure whether it rained or not. There were quite a lot to see, and …
