To get to Chinatown (Yaowarat) Bangkok, the fastest way is via the boat ride, since it avoids traffic and it's cheap. First, we took the BTS to Saphan Taksin, and once we're out from the station we followed the crowd and saw Sathorn Pier barely 3 minutes away. At the pier though, it could be confusi

More than 2 years ago, I visited the first Din Tai Fung in KL for the launch of its new menu and to witness the preparation of the 18-fold Xiao Long Bao. Fast forward 2 years plus later, I have lost count on the number of times I visited Din Tai Fung, usually for the cute dumplings and my favourite

Do you still remember the good old days when we used to send and receive physical Chinese New Year cards? The ones that we used to buy in packs of 5 or 10, in which all of them looked similar and had the same theme of red colour? It's been ages since I last received a physical card for Chinese New Y
