Asia Cafe is a Hawkers' Food Court right in the town centre of busy Subang Jaya, in SS15, near where the colleges (Taylor's, Inti, Metropolitan) are located. It is a little bit upmarket than most hawkers' centre and there are very many stalls housed there. It is also a stone throw away from the wet market and that's why we headed there for brunch after the marketing spree.The foodcourt is a bit deserted in the mornings...business picks up only towards lunch time and will be at its peak during … [Read more...]

Indian Mangoes!
See what I found at the supermarket at lunch time? My favourite Indian mangoes! They have made their 1st appearance this year - season has started! Yayyy! Although it's expensive ~ at RM12.90 per kg (from Jusco), I could not resist buying. It's always expensive at the beginning of the season. The price will go down later - to as low as RM7 a kg. It's even cheaper if you buy by the box/carton...hehe! These 3 beauties here weigh 1.3kg and cost me RM17. I can't wait to gorge into the luscious … [Read more...]

It's been some time since I last cooked that at home.I looked through my freezer and thank goodness there was some minced pork there. So I chopped some "toong-choy" (some kinda pickled preserved veg) and mixed it with the pork, bind it with some cornflour (with salt & soy sauce seasoning) and … [Read more...]
