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

Christmas always means party with good friends and family with plenty of good food. Instead of the typical Western dishes that we have every year during Christmas, perhaps one could consider having it the Kristang style?

I'm a fan of seafood! There's just something about the seafood sweetness that makes food taste so much better, without worrying about the fat content. With the exception of crabs (because it takes too much work to peel them off), I enjoy eating lobsters, prawns, clams, squids, fish, you name it. But [...]

"Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last

Please Christmas, don't be late."
Ah who can forget this festive [...]
