Our first encounter with Indonesian food happened two years back in Bali island. It left us awestruck with the potential and range of Indonesian food that we never realized. We first hear about Dancing Fish located on the third floor of Bangsar Shopping Centre from a friend. It is a treasure trove of Malay-Indo dishes, we were told. Hence the very idea of savoring Indonesian cuisine among me … [Read more...]

F is a big, bad word, some says. So much so that mentioning the “F-Words” is enough to cause a person to be looked at with suspicion, disbelief, and disgust. However F means fun-filled food at this little dining gem located above the ever bustling Chawan on the corner of Jalan Telawi 3. Don't let their obscure location or quiet weekday ambiance fool you because the aesthetically decorated … [Read more...]

It is an experience to simply browse through the extensive selection of pastries and breads … [Read more...]

Last year we celebrated C&C's return at Ole Ole Bali and this year we have decided to go ahead … [Read more...]

They started out in Cameron Highlands as Smokehouse Hotel & Restaurant and followed by the Ye Olde … [Read more...]
Lotus Root with Fish Paste Grand Imperial is one of my favourite dim sum place in KL; you'll see us stuffing ourselves silly with dim sum when the pay cheque's out. During days when moolah runs low, we'll resort to our favourite neighbourhood dim sum restaurant Jin Xuan.
