We’re always on the look-out for places that sell nasi lemak. We discovered Mak’Indos Cafe at the Centro Shopping Centre in Victoria Park – the more shopping centres where you can buy nasi lemak, the better! It makes it so much easier to feed our regular nasi lemak cravings. We each ordered the full-sized nasi […]
I would’ve done some baking and brought in mini muffins or similar for my last day of work on the 30th of July, but with my muffin pans all packed up along with half the kitchen and the rest of my baking gear, it was just easier to buy something. Jac offered to pick up […]
On one of our busy nights, Jac grabbed me a takeaway dinner from Spencer Village International Food Hall (200 Spencer Road, Thornlie) – hainanese chicken rice from Penang Cuisine. Regular readers will know I prefer to eat takeaway meals on “real” plates rather than straight out of the plastic containers they come in. So here [&hel…
Chee cheong fun has got to be one of my favourite noodle dishes. It’s steamed soft rice flour noodles. We buy these from Fook Kee at Spencer Village International Food Hall, 200 Spencer Road, Thornlie. Fook Kee serves the chee cheong fun rolled up and chopped into segments, served with a sweet thick sauce and […]
We had a family afternoon tea recently at my parents’ home. Jac and I contributed siew mai to the meal – we bought three or four serves from Fook Kee at Spencer Village International Food Hall (200 Spencer Road, Thornlie) and brought them along. Mum and I placed them in a dish to heat up […]
For dinner two Friday nights ago, we had a couple of dishes made by Jac’s mum’s friend E, to eat with rice. She’d made us prawn sambal and lemongrass chicken. Jac said she’d pick up a couple of extra takeaway dishes – another meat dish and a vegetable dish, to go with the home cooked […]
I had to attend a Christmas function after work a couple of Friday nights ago. While I was at the function, Jac ran a few errands and grabbed food from Spencer Village (Spencer Road Shopping Centre, Thornlie). This is what she bought for me – hainan chicken rice from Penang Cuisine. I ate it the […]
In addition to my takeaway yong tow foo, I bought a serve of chai tow kway (also known as radish cake, or carrot cake – see Wikipedia entry on chai tow kway) from Fook Kee at Spencer Village. I thought it would be perfect for a bento lunch. To go with the chai tow kway, […]
We parted company with C and P after our laksa feast. C and P wanted to have a good walk after eating all that laksa; I was intent on smothering myself in durian-flavoured gelato. My sister Juji had told me the Il Gelato shop on James Street sells it, and there was no way I […]
Before he moved to Canada, my friend SRM told me there was a little cafe at the Victoria Park Centro Shopping Centre (formerly known as “Heart of the Park”) that sold nasi lemak. Naturally, Jac and I just had to check it out. Last Saturday was the day – we stopped by for a nasi […]
