SouperChef’s Message | Red Dot Series This morning, I had chee cheong fan and thosai for breakfast at my favourite Pek Kio Market. More specifically, while I was still deliberating over what to get, my son had ordered the smooth handmade dim sum and my husband had returned with plates of hot crispy thosai. Both […]

At worst, the labelling is superfluous, overhyped by marketing ingenuity. In fact, […]

SouperChef’s Message | Ode to Celebration   I never tire of regaling my childhood stories to the gapes of my city children! Home in Brunei is about darkened knees playing in the backyard, chasing our chickens, watching my grandma slaughter one every Chinese New Year for the reunion dinner. All the kids would gather to […]

SouperChef Anna’s Message | Christmas 2018 I grew up in the company of ‘creators’ — family members who can turn pantry scraps into cosy meals, plain dishes into coveted heirloom recipes. Put a chef in the kitchen and magical things can happen! But while I’m all for reinventing the familiar and breaking the conventions, there […]
