Baby Back Ribs is something I am very intimidated to try to make at home. I don’t like wasting a good part of meat because I cooked it the wrong way. But since I had a LOT of time on my hands – why not try it! My good friend K guided me and shared…

#CookingQuest: Ma-ki (with Mi or without Mi)
When you say ma-ki, I would always associate it with Manosa’s along Ongpin. I have very fond memories for eating there with my parents. Their ma-ki is my benchmark for all the ma-ki’s that I have tried. Nothing comes close, nothing. I have always wondered why my mom hasn’t tried to replicate it. I guess…
#DIDIscoveries: LoBakGo’s Radish Cake!
Radish cake is something I really enjoy eating. I learned it from the best, my mom! When we went out to eat dimsum, she would always order this and then tell the waiter or server to fry it a little more for a crisp to the cake. Since I grew up seeing and having that…
Tien Ma & Figaro delivers to YOU!
This lockdown has seriously made me tired with all the cooking. It’s not just the cooking really, it’s the thinking of what to cook every single day for lunch and dinner. I think I have injured my right arm with all the cooking that I have done in the first two weeks of the lockdown….
How are you doing this ECQ?

#CookingQuest – Making Focaccia
A week into the lockdown, there was a bread making movement seen on my social media feeds. It wasn’t because it was a fad, it was mainly because bread was scarce at that time. I have dreamed of making bread, but am deathly afraid of using yeast. I’ve never tried using yeast ever, even if…
Baked Spaghetti by Le Petite Chef
I have done sooooo much cooking during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine – and to be honest, it’s quite tiring. I am experiencing pain on both arms, my right arm to more than the left. It really takes quite an effort to cook for my family on a daily basis. Would you believe that I’ve never made baked…
#CookingQuest – Gyoza
I’m a sucker for gyoza, even if it’s just a dumpling – well a Japanese version dumpling. Hahaha! I would order this all the time and I remember, my god daughter, Alleya – she’s a Gyoza monster as she loves eating it! One of the things I least like to do is to think of…
