Homemade Malaysian Pan Mee (Flat Noodles) Receipe

This dish needs no introduction to most Malaysians, especially the Chinese Malaysians. It’s sold in almost all, if not, most hawker centres or food courts across Malaysia; I’m also sure there is a halal version of Pan Mee sold somewhere in the big cities.   To me, Pan Mee is my soul food, comfort food …

Colourful euphoria, a feast to the eyes

Heaven Lights @ Goa Jomblang

I was very thankful to the bunch of travellers from Malaysia that I encountered at my hostel “Nasi Bungkus”. They were the ones who recommended this website www.yogya-backpacker.com, which contains a lot of useful information and useful tips on the not-so-mainstream sights and places of interest. One of them is Goa Jomblang, about 90-minute drive …

While browsing through the internet for new eateries around Osaka, I stumbled …

It was my first time to go to Taiwan. We were making our way to the mountain town “Jiufen” 九份 made famous by the movie “City of Sadness” and the anime movie “Spirited Away”. The bus ride on the steep, curving roads from Ruifang to Jiufen was both a scary and harrowing experience, with two-way …

Ramen joints in London

Unsurprisingly, London boasts to have some of the finest Asian eateries in Europe; and that includes Japanese food. Thin wheat noodles served in piping hot broth (usually meat and vegetable broth), topped with pork slices, bamboo shoots and perfectly cooked half-boiled egg with a creamy liquid centre (Maximum YUMZ factors!), ramen is definitely the best …

Random scribbles of my thoughts…

I don’t usually write about politics nor discuss about politics openly, and yes I’m talking about the Malaysian politics. I believe most Malaysians from the Y-generation have a love-hate relationship with our beloved country; love for our family and friends back home; we love Malaysia for its myriad variety of good ol’ Malaysian food; we …
