A while back, I went to MY’s Restaurant for lunch with the family. It has been nearly 5 years since the last time I went to MY’s Restaurant, maybe even longer since it was at their old premise.
Monthly Cousin Catchup – Grease Monkey
After our previous catch up at Doubleshot, it was my turn to choose where we were going to catch up next. I went to Instagram to find some inspiration on where we could go, after looking at several photos, I decided on Grease Monkey because of a photo on their fried chicken…
Recipe: Childhood Apple water
Growing up in an Asian household, the fridge would always be filled with jugs of teas and tonics. Besides the bitter herbal teas which mum always forced us to drink, the most memorable drink would have to be mums homemade apple water.
Morks, not your everyday Thai.
It has been over two years since Morks opened their doors at Kingston Foreshore. Throughout these two years, I’ve been there numerous times and everytime it has been very satisfying. If you think the Thai you had last week was the very best in Canberra, I am so sorry, but you’ll need to get yourself…
Monthly cousin catch up @ Doubleshot
Recently I had been catching up with two of my favourite cousins on a monthly basis. In the past, I would usually see them once a year on Chinese New Year.

My favourite Korean restaurant, Chez Kimchi
My first encounter with korean food would have to be 15 years ago, when I was still in primary school. At lunch time, my korean friend would eat from his shiny metal lunch box, which was always filled with a variety of delicious korean delicacies, while I would be nibbling on my strawberry jam sandwich….
International pastry chef hidden in Weston?!
While on my stroll down at Weston, tired, hot and hungry, I attemped to find a place that would still be open at this time. Late afternoon. Walking pass all the restaurants, not a single one was open. This was because lunch service ended two hours ago. With little hope left I finished walking down…

Baos from The Fish Can
Located within the Westside Acton Park near the Lake Burley Griffin is the recently opened food vendor The Fish Can. From my first glance into the kitchen, I immediately recognised a familiar face, the owner of The Fish Shack.
