Miki Ipoh Beansprout Chicken Rice @ Taman Midah KL

What so special about Ipoh Beansprout Chicken anyway.. ? The thing that caught our eye, was the smooth, white chicken, hanging at the front of the shop. It kind of gleamed when it caught the noon-day sun, and we knew from the growl in our bellies, that we needed to eat soon, so we quickly [...]

The Norwegian Seafood Gala Dinner

Sassy salmon!

When I spoke to my friends who make up the  Norwegian Flying Culinary Circus Troupe particularly Chef Hans-Kristian Larsen via email and found out that they were not coming for the Annual Norwegian Gala Dinner, due to the fact that their schedule was tighter than Ebenezer Scrooge’s purse and also the fact that they were [...]

Favola @ Le Meridien, KL

The latest addition to the KL Sentral string of delightful 5 star restaurants is an Italian restaurant replacing the opulent Middle Eastern restaurant, Al Nafourah at Le Meridien Kuala Lumpur. Falova means “fable” in Italian. I like the setting of the place that reminds me of rustic Italy of the renaissance era. Masquerade! Paper faces [...]

Chef Choi “Thanksgiving” @ Jalan Ampang, KL
