ABC Ribbon Pasta

Abc soup is a common delicacy amongst Chinese, it is simple to boil and very nutritious. Children love it since they were babies as most mummies will boil this soup. Here is a ribbon pasta dish, put into Abc soup with some drizzle of Worcestershire sauce and dried Italian herbs. Garnish with some scallion, and ta-da, a nice pasta is ready for the hungry mouths!

Steam chicken is a common specialty amongst Canton cuisine.  This steam chicken is done with lots of Bentong ginger that even hubby is screaming of spiciness. Next time have to reduce to using young ginger.

Mum's delicious dishes

My mum is an excellent cook, and very passionate to cook for all of us everyday. She cooks these dishes, with lots of love. This is a chicken dish cooked with oregano, onions and tomato sauce, best tasting  and very juicy.



My mum also makes best tasting and spongy fish paste always, which are troublesome to do. They are freshly used with stir fries, or Yong tau foo.



Peranakan Mansion, Penang

This Peranakan mansion has so much kitchenwares and utensils left behind, made it a little worthwhile to have paid RM20 per pax as entrance fees. Wished could bring some of these nostalgic utensils back home.

Found this banana cake recipe using sponge method, tried and was very happy with the look at it was well baked with nice brown crust, loves cake with brown crust! Texture was a bit densed for my taste but colleagues said it was good. Reduced 70gm of sugar, could have tasted better if bit sweeter.
