Was looking for a new food experience and found this restaurant, Red Red Botak Head, at Gardens Mall. After our event with KFPH, we ended up here for our dinner. I ordered the Unagi Laksa while Hanaa had the Beef Tenderloin Miso Shoyu Love. For side dishes we had the Bilis Bawang Butter and Oriental Baby Octopus. And to end the dinner, dessert was the Red Red Botak Head, a pink...
One thing I learned and appreciate about Gyoza is although a simple dish, it can be a test of one’s cooking skills. Being able to make a filling that can convey a flavorful bite after being wrapped in guoza skin and fried is one test. The other test is in the frying of it. I’ve seen people just dump the gyoza in and fry it like a piece of meat. I...
It’s been a while since I made Gyoza. This week, without actually planning to, over 2 trips to the supermarket, I seemed to have collected the ingredients required to make it. When I opened my fridge on Sunday morning to think of what to cook for evening dinner, I saw that all the ingredients ofr Gyoza was there. Just needed to get the skin.

If you are not familiar with this fish, the Empurau fish is a very sought after and expensive fish. This fish can go for RM 1,000 or about USD 250 per kg. The bigger...
Around 4 pm, we tried calling Phuket airport to check on the status of our baggage. The afternoon flight from KL had arrived around 3:30 pm so the airport should know by now if our baggage had arrived or not. Since no one picked up the phone at the airport, we tried our luck with Malaysia Airlines helpline. That turned out to he of no help at all. Instead the cheerful...
Our adventure begins with a trip from the airport to Lam Hien pier for lunch. Along the way we get to see the scenery unfold as we head east. Phuket seems to be a mixture of Southern Thailand, Chinese and some Siam influence. None particularly stands out and all seem to blend into the landscape. Amazing experience here as this delicious food took like just 20 minutes to appear from when...
KL is a food haven. If you aren’t careful, you can put on the kilos without even realising it. Thanks to my generous sister, our first night was at a Japanese omakase at Publika. Quite the experience.
