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

I've always heard of the best-selling Habanero Hot wings from Frontera that apparently make one sweat buckets because of the spiciness. Being a fan of spicy food, both Saucer and I were ready to take the challenge! It was made possible when we won some Groupsmore vouchers that entitled us to a baske [...]

Ever since my first visit to Il Lido a few months ago, I couldn't stop raving to Saucer about how good the food was, and that we had to go try it one day. The plan was postponed over and over again until one night, when we decided to go there to celebrate 3 occasions - Christmas + New Year + Monthly [...]

I always thought TeoChew food revolved around plain porridge, salted egg or steamed fish. Being a fellow TeoChew myself, I was surprised to find out that there's so much more to Teochew cuisine than that. Recently, a visit to Teow Chew Meng left me wondering why I hadn't been eating more of the deli [...]

Ever since Snowflake's inception in SS15, I have always of heard good things about their dessert. From their first outlet, now to their 4th outlet in Kuchai Lama, Snowflake has really grown so rapidly that I had to pester Saucer to bring me there just to see how good it was. Finally, opportunity pre [...]

As I'm writing this post, it's raining heavily outside. In fact, it has been raining for the past 4 hours or so, making me shiver every time the wind blows. At times like this, a bowl of steaming hot porridge is the answer to my woes. Ah, how I crave for a bowl right now! Recently, a new row of shop [...]
