Serenity

The infamous Fo Guang Shan in Kaoshiung is a haven of serenity. It is the perfect place to cleanse one’s soul.

Dawn of Enlightenment

Woke up early and am rewarded with peace and enlightenment.

Happy New Year

A burst of hope over the marina skyline. Happy New Year and wishing everyone a blissful, healthy life ahead.

Cupcakes

Cupcakes making is my first attempt at mixing eggs, flour and sugar to get this wonderful fluffy meringue. It was a humbling experience in patience and precision to get it right.

With an extra touch, these cupcakes took on a life of their own.

Chocolat

How do you show the love for your man? Through his stomach on his birthday.

Capturing the heart with chocolate ganache, butter, flour and sugar.

Berries

Been on a hiatus as I was learning how to bake.

This strawberry shortcake was my first attempt in blending flour and sugar to create the batter that would produce a soft sponge cake. The aesthetic and taste were incredible.

Feeling satisfied with my Samsung note food photography.

Humble Italian Food

The chef at this inconspicuous Italian food stall did not have a shiny signboard. Only one small sign said “trained in Le Cordon Bleu”.

My curiosity was piqued and ordered a Worcester Sauce Chicken and Aglio Olio angel hair with rosemary chicken.

The food that came was piping hot and tasted amazing!

Coming from this humble-loooking stall, it gave a new meaning to you can’t judge the food by their looks.

Old School Noodles

Old school hokkien mee from the neighborhood coffee shop.

Rich in broth, meat, seafood and sambal chilli. Yum!

Old School Food

Old school kaya toast and 60-cent coffee and tea. Not from franchised coffee chain like Toast Box or Ya kun, just good old neighborhood coffee stall.

The best nostalgia and authenticity are just around the corner of the block.

Pigs in!
