Restaurant

Woodstock Restaurant in Petaling Jaya offers a range of western and local dishes, on top of a growing selection of wines, beers and cocktails. It took over the spot where Rokaro used to occupy, boasting a more modern look and feel. The interior is fashioned to give diners a hipster…

When a restaurant requires prior booking in order for customers to secure a table, one would expect the food to be top notch. My in-laws have been raving about Jeff Lee Kitchen in Sungai Buloh, especially their “standing chicken” and minced pork wantan noodles. There were no tables available when…

I’ve been huge fan of Robert Char Kuay Teow ever since I first tried it in 2007. That was in Say Huat Coffeeshop, Section 17 and it has become my regular char kuay teow spot ever since. rif and I were around the neighbourhood when we saw another Robert Char…

Whenever I visit Singapore, I tend to go back to the same few spots where I’ve grown accustomed to the food and place. Creature of habit, I know. My other half however, loves trying new places and insisted we try something out of our norm when we were in the…

There’s something about banana leaf rice that makes it so appealing to many – mounds of parboiled rice on banana leaf, drenched with tasty curries and served with an assortment of vegetables. It is comfort meal at best and when you find a good one, you’ll keep going back for…
