Adventures from a small Singaporean HDB kitchen.That's It?
Oh, collectively, we love chocolate, comfort food, lots of chicken and meat, local hawker fares and ice creams. Our inspirations are drawn from everyday cravings for not necessarily healthy deliciousness, love for good food, new recipes from the Internet, great works from renowned chefs, travels, cravings from friends and family, and of course, fresh ingredients.The AuthorPick Yin is a Malaysian woman working and living in Singapore.
She loves to cook, bake and most importantly, eat. Her favorite room in her shoebox flat is her kitchen. She can spend the entire day there and not miss a thing. What makes her day?
A bowl of wanton soup noodles, a piece (or two) of moist chocolate cake, a piece of fried chicken, a bowl of lychees, a warm salad with pine nuts and perhaps a big fat slab of steak.
When she is not cooking, she's involved with a certain German enterprise technology. People tell her she should be a chef and/or open a bakery, and quit her day job. She's trying to make peace with those sort of comments here. The dream lives on.The Partner in CrimeVijay is the author's permanent taste tester, occasional but extremely detailed dishwasher, trash organizer and lead food photographer.
He loves anything cheese, burgers, Hokkien noodle, coffee, Chinese fried rice, chicken rice, Muscat, foie gras and chicken curry. He despises most fruits and doesn't eat beef. Most of the time he gets shooed out of the kitchen unless needed for passing utensils, tasting, cleaning up, sprinkling flour on the counter or taking great pictures.
However, on many occasions, he cooks, very well too. He doesn't sugar coat reviews for the food of yours truly. Certain standards are to be maintained since he is after all, also a Malaysian.Life is Great

Hi
ReplyDeleteI had a hard time converting some of your recipes to metric system. Would you kindly include the ingredient measurements in metric as well?
Thanks
Emily
Emily: For most baking ingredients such as flour and sugars, you can find the conversions online. Whenever possible I will include both metric and US customary units.
