Wild Yeast Bakery

Image
One of my favorite café for sourdough bread. A limited menu that revolves around the trademark sourdough and croissant but quality ingredients to go with your favorite cuppa. Helmed by bassonist and sound engineer turned baker-preneur, Terence Chong is happy that business is doing well despite the lockdown and is looking forward to the recovery. Terence began his sourdough venture as a partner with Tommy Le Baker circa 2013 and went on his own in another location in Jalan SS17 before moving to this quaint neighborhood in Jalan SS22 just before the pandemic in 2020. During my last visit (4 September 2021), the cafe is still not open for dine-in but it should be soon. Nevertheless, business was brisk with customers making a beeline to order take-always. I ordered the vegan options - Egg Mayo and Brie sandwich. Very hearty sandwiches and absolutely delicious. The sourdough is dense and crusty.  For the month of September, get free cruffin (croissant + muffin?) with your orders. Don’t...

Tapestry - Eggs Benedict & French Toast

Image
Everyone is longing for normalcy as we gladly accept the removal of travel and other restrictions but that is not commonly shared as some are still cautious of the risk of being infected, which I think is fair. A visit to the Asian Heritage Row recently reveals that recovery is no where near, a once popular drinking hole for white collar professionals in the city dotted by popular restaurants all around is a far cry from its hey days. Shuttered stores with signs for sale or rental was a scary sight and tell tale sign of how the businesses were pummelled by the lockdown. Flanked by Jalan Sultan Ismail and Jalan Raja Abdullah, KLites throng this area especially during the weekend for a slice of coffee and breakfast culture.  Before the pandemic, getting a table at the Tapestry would be basically impossible without prior reservation. I was pleasantly surprised that I managed to get a table after a 15-minute wait. Still rustic and industrial from the outside and yet, airy and pleasant ...

Nian Gao - Chinese New Year Cake

Image
Nian gao, literally translated to New Year Cake in Chinese which sounds like “higher year”. Higher means better and progress upwards. It is made from glutinous rice flour and it is popularly eaten during the lunar new year. It is offered to the Kitchen God, so that his mouth will be glued shut by the sticky rice cake and he won’t badmouth the human family to the Jade Emperor. You can buy nian gao from the supermarket, market or Chinese medicine shop. The version I made is with yam and sweet potatoes. It is more elaborate but you can also just steam or microwave it and eat it plain or coat it with beaten egg and fry it. I found my recipe on the internet and made some slight modification. To prepare the batter, sieve 1 cup of plain flour and 1/2 a cup of rice flour. Add 1 cup of cold water and mix the batter until smooth and runny. Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon of tumeric powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and mix well. Let the batter sit for about 20 minutes. Cut the yam, sweet ...

MCO Tip - Noodle soup

Image
Now into MCO2.0, like me you might be tired of elaborate cooking and just want a quick meal. Here’s a quick and easy tip on dishing up delicious bowl of noodle with your leftover soup.  When you order your favorite noodle delivery, most often than not, you have excess soup. Instead of throwing it away, keep it in a flask and store it your fridge and it is good for up to a week. If longer, freeze it in a food storage bag. When you fancy a bow of noodle, just reheat the soup and skim of the residue fat that is floating on the surface, add your chopped greens and meat of your choice. I would like to recommend this INA pan mee thin noodles that I bought from the supermarket. It’s so smooth and delicious, it doesn’t taste like instant noodle at all. Cook it in boiling water for about 4 minutes and then pour it into a colander and run it over cold water. Make sure that you toss it slightly to get rid of the excess water before you transfer the noodle into a bowl. Then pour your hot soup ...

Dinner at Jumbo (Dempsey Hills) 25 Sep 2008

Image
Dinner at Jumbo (Dempsey Hills)   It was my colleagues' farewell dinner. Two of them. No, they are not leaving the company. Just moving to another department. Any cause for celebration, is a good cause. Well, nevertheless, change is always good they say. Or at least, it is the only constant. As for the food... I went in rather skeptical. You know... this... this... reputable seafood restaurants. The ones that you bring every and any other guest in town to. The food is normally just "ok" and really not anything to shout about. Since this was a farewell. we ordered a lot. Anyway, my boss is paying. Why not... we ordered the pumpkin conpoy with shrimp soup, grilled lamb with pepper sauce, shitake mushroom with egg beancurd, geoduck clam stir fry a ala kum-heong, chilly and pepper crab.       Well, let me tell you what I think. The pumpkin conpoy was great. Good start to the meal. It doesn't really taste like pumpkin, perhaps because of the infusion with the seafood flavo...
