This grilled shrimp recipe is a perfect example of a dish that is simple to prepare, and yet bursting with flavor. Grilled to burnished perfection before being smothered in a tangy, sweet and sour sauce. This mouthwatering combination which is punctured with the grassy, herbal freshness of coriander and the haunting, citrus note of lime is a confirmed pleaser regardless of whether it is meant to be enjoyed alone, or to be shared at a party with friends and family...

Many of us would agree that Japanese rice bowl dishes taste exquisite. Many of us may also agree that once in awhile, a variation from the usual combination found in most restaurants and eateries provide a refreshing relief, and a chance for our minds and tummies to explore a little. What better way to do that than to try out this Korean inspired variation of the usual Japanese Salmon Rice Bowl (sake don)? Just the perfect dose of the familiar with a new twist of ingredients...

It’s been a while since I made my No Bake Oreo Cheesecake and today, I decide to give myself (and the family, of course) a mini treat by making this No Bake Cookie Dough Cheesecake. Instead of using digestive biscuits as the crust, I opted for my almost-close-to-expiration bag of feuilletine flakes. So far, I only come across it at Sun Lik Trading and Kitchen Capers. Alternatively, feel free to use good ol’ digestive biscuits widely found in most supermarkets...

Growing up in a Cantonese household, one of our childhood breakfast items I could still fondly reminisce is this Easy Stir-fry Soy Sauce Noodles. There are no fancy ingredients used in this humble noodle dish, the key ingredient is good ol’ light and dark soy sauce. Since they are the “star” in this dish, it makes sense to use good quality soy sauce...

For a limited period only, Chef Christopher Millar has come up with a Kokumi Constellation 8-course menu, focusing mainly on ingredients from Kyoto and Hokkaido. I always respect chefs who believe in using sustainable ingredients and Chef Millar is one of them. Staying true to his progressive Australian cooking style and using the finest Japanese Ingredients, he has interpreted these flavors through the “sixth taste” kokumi which refer to mouthfulness or heartiness...

As much as I love fruit pies, apple pie definitely ranks no. 1 in our household. Thankfully, apples are available all year round in Singapore so I have every reason to make this Salted Caramel Apple Pie.
Thanks to the addition of salted caramel, the savory-sweet combo of the apple pie filling is simply one of the best filling I ever had.

This easy to make no bake Salted Caramel Mousse with Caramel Popcorn dessert is one of the recent experiment I’ve tried. Super easy to make, all you need is a little patience while waiting for the dessert to chill for at least 6 hours or overnight before consumption...
