Namaste beautiful people! Diwali, the brightest of all Hindu celebrations is fast approaching. It is definitely a festival that is close to my heart. <3

Prior to moving to this new house, I had an Indian neighbor for about 20 years and I always enjoyed seeing their house buzzing with activities a few days before Diwali. She would decorate the house…
Do you guys have some customary traditional food that you prepare only on special occasions or festivals? Let's say, maybe a specific pie that your mom bakes only during Christmas. Basically, food that makes its appearance only once or twice a year.
My family has two things I would say. Mom used to make them every Eid and now she has…
The eldest brother came over to my place a few days back. I cooked Asam pedas fish as it is one of his favorites. Obviously, I had to make a dessert as well. I am someone who wants to overdeliver when it comes to entertaining guests. It does not happen every time but if I had my way, I would…
Remember in the previous recipe I mentioned that I wanted to go to Paris someday? That very night, after writing this blog post, I went to bed and dreamt that I was traveling. The funny thing was that I was off to India instead of Paris. Yup, Eiffel didn't make it to my dream but the TajMahal did. Not really…
My niece usually stays over every weekend as we work on orders. This time round, we finished our orders pretty early, so as we were lazing around in the bed, we ended up talking about desserts. She wanted fudgy brownies and obviously I had to make some for her. #trophyaunt

Check out my family's latest obsession below. ↓
We have been encoring this Cha Bang Ang Recipe coz it is really THAT good. If you are familiar with Cendol, I would say this is even better.
Anyways, Sawadee Krap. Yes, we are "still in Thailand" and we are doing a dessert this time round.
Cha Bang Ang is a Thai dessert/drink that is…
Pardon me for blowing my own trumpet, but I'm an absolute genius. I just turned a 4- ingredients icebox cake into a 3-ingredients recipe. How? Well, I just omitted the sugar. It was really not required.
Hello beautiful people! How are you guys doing? A lot going on my plate right now, and I am not even talking about food. Anyways…
Today's dessert seems to wear many different hats. In Singapore, it is known as Bubur Suji (literal translation: Semolina porridge) and it is often associated with Arab cuisine. I, on the other hand, associate it more with Indian cuisine. It is a very popular dessert in India called Sooji/Rava kheer. Kheer is basically an Indian dessert that is made from…
In December and January, I did not need the air conditioner but come February, I do require it as well as many cups of this 3-ingredients Watermelon Lime Granita aka the perfect treat for hot summer days.
Nothing screams summertime like this sweet, light and refreshing watermelon lime granita. You get a little sweet and tang in each bite. It is…
When it comes to ice cream flavours, there are the crowd-pleasers like chocolate chip, chocolate fudge, cookie dough, basically #teamchocolate. Then there are those (read: Me) who instead enjoy fruity based ice cream like the raspberry ripple, blueberry and mango..this is just to name a few. One of my ultimate favourite flavours has to be Ben & Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake…
