I’ve been meaning to post this healthy cornflake snack recipe up before Chinese New Year but I was kinda busy the last week so I didn’t have time to put this up. Anyway, we still have one day to CNY so, what the heck. Might as well post it up! This is a very simple and darn easy recipe for a wonderful snack to serve your guests during Chinese New Year or simply just to enjoy yourself.
We seldom go to Tanjung Bungah nowadays but if we do venture there, we’d be searching for some great food there which is very few and far in between. Well, The Food Critic is known to seek out great places to eat so his latest discovery is this coffee shop mostly frequented by students from the nearby TAR college.

Now, in this coffee shop, there are quite a few hawker stalls there but my focus is mostly on the chicken rice stall since it’s what we ate there (and it is . . . → Read More: Chicken rice at students’ rate
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!
I haven’t had time till now to get the tonnes of pictures I took of the places we went to eat over the weekend organised and ready to be put up here. If you don’t know already, we are Japanese food fans so naturally, we chose to go to a Japanese restaurant to celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary.
Since we’ve never tried the Miraku Restaurant over at G Hotel, we went there for their set lunch.

The ambiance is very warm and cosy. The decor, simple and elegant.
Firstly, I’d like to apologise for my lapse in updating this blog when I’ve been quite consistent in updating this blog regularly. It’s out fifth wedding anniversary and I had taken time off (from work and from blogging) to spend more time with my Personal Chef/ The Food Critic and Mr Picky.
It is amazing to think that I’ve been together with my Personal Chef for a decade, half of it getting to know each other and another half as husband and wife. We’ve been through a birth of a child, two deaths, heart-stopping moments, terrible illnesses, through bad . . . → Read More: Taking a boat ride for exceptional seafood in a quiet fishing village
