My Latest Discovery: Good Morning Nanyang Cafe at Far East Plaza, Singapore





The best set meal in town: Curry Chicken with lots and lots and lots of spuds served with rice or bread and a cup of strong coffee. It was soooooooo good!


Followed by thick wholemeal toast slathered with butter and homemade kaya. Carb overload but I had just worked out. At least thats my excuse!


With the sisters... and an enthusiastic fellow customer who jumped into the pix. Yes, its that kind of place where everyone knows your name and your brew. Cheers. 
Bought chee cheong fun for breakfast tomorrow as well as even more coffee to be zapped in the microwave. You just can't get enough of Good Morning Nanyang Cafe. I know I can't.

Recommendation from a Fellow Foodie: Calbee Potato Farm "Crisp Fries"



Just the thing to look out for when in transit at Narita Airport, Tokyo. Susan T is a fan and strongly recommends it as "the best potato chip ever".

The Perfect Sunday Breakfast: Curry potatoes a la Liu Hin


Big big thank you to Aunty Liu Hin, one of my favourite people, and fabulous cook who can make anything. She always makes a dish of curry potatoes for me to pick up on my way home from work or to takeaway after an awesome dinner at her home. Thank you for always remembering Aunty. I feel the love with every mouthful.

Movie Night at Home Best Enjoyed with M&S's Bubble & Squeak Cakes



First time we tried these easy baked Bubble & Squeak Cakes (according to the label, made with Maris Piper potato, Savoy cabbage & spring greens with lightly fried spring onions, sea salt & cracked black pepper)...and it won't be the last! Next time may get some roast beef to make it into a complete meal. DELICIOUS nonetheless!
