When I came across this Crispy and Light Buttermilk Waffles recipe by The Pioneer Woman, I immediately recognize it is going to be a keeper. The combination of buttermilk, whipped egg whites is totally necessary when it comes to achieving a light and crispy mouthfeel. If you are looking for the dense and chewy kind of waffles, this is not it...

Truth be told, with so many new F&B establishments popping up like SG50 babies in Singapore, I wasn’t extremely hopeful I would be blown away by a small plates restaurant like Kite. After all, we weren’t too impressed with the last few tapas / small plates restaurants we visited before. Since it was our weekly Satur-date night, I went along with Tiger’s suggestion to give Kite a try...

Pad means stir-fry and See Ew means soy sauce,...

Mention Mad about Sucre and immediately, you would think of dreamy, gorgeous-looking cakes and decadent desserts. Although they have a one-page selection of savory items (i.e mainly smoked salmon and tarte) on their menu, regular patrons wanted something more substantial and when we knew about their pop shop concept (a concept of featuring temporary food items), we decided to give it a try...

Making this Easy Roast Pork with Perfect Crackling has been on my to-do list for the longest time. Ever since I set my eyes on the recipe, I’ve been dying to try it out. Notice the word "Easy" incorporated in the title, I’ll explain why in a bit.
Traditionally, making roast pork involves marinating the meat and poking lots of tiny holes in the skin with metal skewer. Somehow, I couldn’t bring myself to go through the whole process, which is weird as I’ve subjected myself to making more elaborated dishes before. This unconventional way of roasting pork in milk (apparently it brings out the natural sweetness of the meat) and wine with zero poking involved was something I’ve not come across. Truth be told, I was super skeptical yet intrigued to see the end result...
