Mooncakes.


Ever since I met Cyndy 5 years ago, we have become nothing but the closest of friends and almost every year since then she gives meyummy mooncakes which she makes with her grandmother.

Mooncake is basically a Chinese Pastry that is traditionally made and eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Mooncakes normally consists of a thick filling that is usually made from lotus seed paste with the occasionally salted egg yolk in the middle of the pastry and is surrounded by a relatively thin crust. Compared to most cakes or pastries, mooncakes are rich, heavy and dense. Personally I like to enjoy them in small wedges accompanied with a cup of tea :)

Go Organic! Go Vegetarian!



I am one girl who loves her vegetables! Ever since I was young, when it comes to scooping food, the veges seems to get the top notch priority on my plate (and my taste buds). Off late what started out as a curiosity has now ended up as an aim towards healthier lifestyle passion: Organic food. So I drove down to my one of my favourite place in the world : St Andrews Market and bought some certified organic veges and made myself 3 simple, healthy and yet yummy meals : French Beans with Tofu, Spinach with Feta and Potatoe and Kidney Bean Curry served with rice and some Spicy hot Tomato and Capsicum Chutney.
