Phew, it’s been a busy day what with all that mixing and baking for my Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24 entry. As you all know, I’m a Cookie Monster through and through so it is no surprise that I submitted a proposal to Foodbuzz for the 24, 24, 24 event and it involved cookies!
I’m sure most of you are intriqued by the title: 24 cookies in 24 flavours. Well, to put it simply, I baked two dozens of cookies and every single one of it is a different flavour. Sounds daunting? Yep, it is pretty daunting. When I submitted . . . → Read More: Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24: 24 Cookies in 24 Flavours
I’ve not been to Salsa Restaurant for lunch in quite a while and have forgotten why we used to love having lunch at this place. So, we went back recently. I’m happy to find that the restaurant has not changed much even after it has moved to the ground floor of Continental Hotel. I know they moved years ago but I did say I’ve not been to the restaurant in a while.
Here’s the restaurant review:

Now, on to the food… We ordered the set lunch (@RM15 per set) so here’s . . . → Read More: Lunch at Salsa Restaurant
First of all, my apologies to those who may have checked here daily for any latest post. I’ve been quite remiss in posting as regularly as I used to due to one reason:
I am way in over my head with a new project I am undertaking, thus I hardly have time for this blog and my personal blog.
In these few weeks, my postings have been irregular and though I did cook up a storm and bake loads of stuff and pigged out at restaurants, I hardly have time to put it all up. Sigh. I am really, . . . → Read More: Pay it forward, leave a comment and win a handmade gift!
Before I start, let me first tell you one great news. I submitted a proposal to Foodbuzz for this month’s 24, 24, 24 event and my proposal was accepted! It was for a cookie recipe I’ve been trying out (and will probably perfect this weekend before the actual 24, 24, 24 day on Dec 31), so keep your eyes peeled for this year end to get a load of the cookies I was working on. It was not easy, I can tell you that.
As most of you would know by now, we are Japanese food junkies and The Food Critic especially LOVE the Japanese Sukiyaki soup SO we started cooking our own Sukiyaki soup using chicken breast meat at home instead of spending more $$ on Japanese restaurants.
It is pretty simple to make sukiyaki, actually so, here it is:

Ingredients
2 large carrots, cut into chunks
3 medium sized tomatoes, quartered
300g chicken breast meat, sliced thinly (and about 1/4 of chicken carcass), all seasoned with salt
Every once in a while, we’ll get really tired of eating rice, rice and more rice each day so sometimes, I’d like to cook noodles for a change. Even my son loves noodles. I usually like to buy organic noodles, especially when there are so many different types of healthy, wholesome noodles to choose from.
Recently, I bought a packet of soya noodles. So, I decided to give it a try in a basic and easy stir-fried noodles style.
This is the soya noodles I bought
It’s soya mixed with wheat. And this is what it looks like:
It does when it comes to me rolling up my sleeves and giving roast pork a try!
We love char siew (roast pork). Especially the types that has been roasted to perfection after it was marinated. Since food prices are increasing and it is quite expensive to eat out all the time, I might as well learn to make roast pork to enjoy at home anytime. The best part is that I can control the quality of the food, what I put it in and yes, keep the cost low!
