04/25/10--09:55: Sambal Ikan Bilis dan Telur (Spicy Anchovy and Egg) (chan 1281097)

Born in the spice archipelago, I grew up eating spicy food all my life. Often, meals are accompanied by spicy condiments such as bird’s eye chilli with soy sauce or sambal belacan, a spicy blend of chilli, spices, and pungent shrimp/prawn paste. Malaysians love them so much that food tastes bland without them. Since sambal [...]

05/20/10--20:50: San Francisco, Chez Panisse, and Beyond (chan 1281097)

The bright warm sun, the gentle breeze from the bay, the rolling hills, and the amazing food. The San Francisco Bay Area seems to have it all. All my life, I’ve always wanted to end up in a diverse and vibrant metro area, close to the waters, and in the vicinity of parks and nature. [...]

05/30/10--22:40: Alinea: A Restaurant Like No Other (chan 1281097)

It was about a year ago when I bought Alinea’s cookbook from Amazon. I don’t know exactly why I did that because I’ve never been there at the time. But I do realize that Alinea is a Chicago institution; it is the best restaurant that the city has to offer. So the book was really [...]

08/05/10--20:16: Monkfish Rice Porridge (Congee) (chan 1281097)

In America, chicken noodle soup is a timeless classic. It’s the perfect comfort food when one’s under the weather or having a bad day. However, when I think about comfort food, the first thing that comes to mind is rice porridge. If you have never had it before, it is essentially over-boiled rice. One would [...]

09/04/10--08:28: Jacob Kenedy’s Gamberi E Calamari Con Polenta (Fried Prawns and Squid with Polenta) (chan 1281097)

I LOVE fried seafood. I’ve had many amazing food in my life but if I were to die, my last meal will be fish and chips with tons of malt vinegar. However, fried shellfish comes very close to second place. I find that frying brings out their seafood-y intensity which makes them smell so good. [...]

There is just so much to love about La Mar. Where should I start? Their fancy cocktails or the wonderfully prepared ceviches and entrees? Either way, you will not be disaapointed. My friend Amy, brought us to La Mar for our first visit to San Francisco. It was sunny, so of course, we had to [...]

It was a lazy Sunday and my friends and I just came back from Maxwell market. I decided to treat them to a simple lunch since the girls have been giving us a ride to the market quite a bit. I didn’t want to fuss around too much, so I figured I would make an [...]

01/11/11--19:44: Maryland Crab Cakes and Prosciutto di Parma Salad Roll (chan 1281097)

The thing with eating crabs with the shell on is that they are so messy. There are times when I actually enjoy taking the time to crack them and slowly picking the meat out. But sometimes, I just want the sweet taste of crab without all the fuss. A good grocery store would sell lump [...]

01/20/11--21:50: Peranakan-Style Sambal Udang Kering (Sambal Heh Bee) (chan 1281097)

Some of my fondest childhood memories revolves around me and my grandmother who used to bring me to a nearby restaurant off Jalan Loke Yew. They served one of the best nasi lemak I have ever had. If you are familiar with the dish, it comes with a classic spicy tamarind-chilli paste called sambal. It [...]

03/11/11--20:48: Malaysian Nasi Lemak (Bungkus) (chan 1281097)

Nasi lemak is undoubtedly the most iconic Malaysian dish of all, so much that we unofficially consider it as our national dish. They sell them everywhere, from road side hawker stalls to school canteens to high end restaurants. So, no wonder we have nasi lemak for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I remember when I was [...]
