Breakfast Scones

I like Thursday mornings because that’s the day I get to have breakfast with Arjun after a week  of rushing out of the house at 7AM. I take the time to make a lovely little breakfast for us as we sit at the table and slather whatever we’re eating with butter and watch the boats […]

Apricot and Rosemary Tartines

When I told you about the incredible flavour pairing that apricot and rosemary make last week, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. In the words of my classmate, “That was a party in the mouth!” I came back home and looked up my favourite reference book, The Flavour Thesaurus, and this is what it said […]

But what really stuck in my head was something I hadn’t tried in Barcelona before: chocolate with salt and olive […]

Peanut Pancake, Imbi Market, Kuala Lumpur

I was sorting through my photos from over the past year and I came upon one of my favourite sets – one that was photographed at Imbi Market in Kuala Lumpur last year. A separate blog post is needed to justify the glorious market, but what I want to share right now is a series […]

Mulberry Yoghurt

Of late, I’ve been eating fruit yoghurt every morning. This is one breakfast item I haven’t gotten bored of ever since I discovered the goodness that a berry + yoghurt mixture can yield. Fast forward to January ‘10, I still eat berries and yoghurt with the same gusto. Of course, sometimes I use regular yoghurt […]

Buckwheat Pancakes (Blinis)

You know what’s the best part of being a food blogger? You meet so many like-minded people. It’s only with them that you can whine about not finding cacao nibs where you live, or figure out why you’re having a bad photo day, or wonder why your yeast isn’t bubbling up already. A place that […]

The Sharper Your Knife, The Less You Cry + Banana Nutella Crepes

I can’t remember how I heard about The Sharper Your Knife, The Less You Cry first; I think I bumped into on Amazon where it was listed as one of the books customers bought along with the one I was looking at. When I found out that this story has Le Cordon Bleu as the […]
