Happy Chinese New Year 2010 - May the year of tiger brings loads of happiness, joy, health and wealth. In celebration of a brand new year of roaring tiger, there are some food we can't missed.

Abalone 燜鮑魚 (braised over 3 hours)

Teochew steamed Fish 潮州式清蒸魚 for 年年有餘














Shark Fin Soup 魚翅湯














"蠔豉發財" (Dried oyster with black moss)














鱼生 (to bring good luck )

Curry stuff

These are my favorite dishes of all time - but quite a mess when comes to cooking thou :p

Singapore Chili Mud Crab and Seafood Laksa

Some abalone?

This is one of the biggest abalones I have ever purchased and those beasts are as big as my palm - lookin' forward to some delicious CNY feast!

Yakiniku @ Kashiwa

This Japanese BBQ restaurant was recommended by a Japanese friend, and first thought was "it has to be good, rite?"! The verdict ... definitely worth a try! We ordered Tofu Seaweed Salad, Special Wagyu Beef Rib, Wagyu Beef Skirt, Chicken Giblet and Assorted Seafood with total bill of $65 for 2 people. The scallop was yummy :)

Braised Pork

Cooked this simple dish which takes about 40 mins to cook ... and enjoy it with a bowl of warm jasmine rice :)

The Fluffy Boy

The fluffy boy is in town so I took the opportunity in catching up on some photography exercise. I have started on picture-editing recently and I must say it is worth the while if you appreciate a good picture rather than just "there you go" kind of memory capture ...

Simple Yet Tasty - Christmas 2009

Christmas is a season where people celebrate the birth of baby Jesus, however in my definition ... It's THE time where family & friends get together on the dining table catching up on how time has rushed us through the 12 months of happiness, joy (not to mention many ups and downs) ... but for some people, it could be difficult times.

This year I made a very simple yet authentic noddle from scratch ... we were pretty pleased with the final outcome because all food were gone in no time! I reckon this second attempt taste better than my first's.
