Visit that Festival!: An Arabian Night
http://visitthatfestival.blogspot.com/2011/06/scheherazades-stories-did-not-just.html
Sunday, June 26, 2011. Scheherazade's stories did not just enthrall Shahrayar, I've been a fan ever since I was told the story of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. And for years I've tried searching for an affordable copy of the entire collection to no avail - the cheapest cost a couple of thousand euros! Anyway, before Jamie chops off my fingers for rambling too much, here's pictures from our version an Arabian Night! And boy does he have such a lovely restaurant. Good Food is best shared :). Nabins certa...

Visit that Festival!: 4th of July Celebrations in Singapore!
http://visitthatfestival.blogspot.com/2011/07/4th-of-july-celebrations-in-singapore.html
Saturday, July 2, 2011. 4th of July Celebrations in Singapore! The wonderful thing I really love about Singapore is that we celebrate just about everything - the Oktoberfest, St Patrick's Feast, Dragon Boat festival, just name the festival/event and someone out there is probably organizing something. I just realize that today is Canada day, isn't it? Well we Singaporeans like the really BIG festivals, dont' we? I mean is Canada even a country anyway? One of my favourite parts from South Park - the movie!

Visit that Festival!: tracing the footsteps of the baba-nonyas.
http://visitthatfestival.blogspot.com/2011/06/tracing-footsteps-of-baba-nonyas.html
Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Tracing the footsteps of the baba-nonyas. The way we cook, the ingredients we use, the food we eat, the cutlery we eat them with reveals a little about who we are and where we come from - we are not just what we eat, we eat what we are! So who needs the Peranakan museum? I think we can learn a lot more about Peranakan culture by eating our way through it! Alright, that was just a really bad excuse for gluts like Jamie and myself! Nonya chang, kueh salat, fish otah. Raymond mention...

http://visitthatfestival.blogspot.com/2011/07/peranakan-food-closer-look.html
Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Peranakan Food - a closer look. And that is why no diet plan ever works on me - not even the ones which purport to the be the most effective. ;) I can't help raving on and on about food. So here's another food-related post. I hope you folks are hungry! These are not just ANY Peranakan dishes, these are THE. FIVE DISHES Jamie and I hold in very high regard. Nonya mixed vegetables. This is pretty simply to cook - Vermicelli, gingko nuts, black fungus, mushrooms and cabbage. Is one o...

Thursday, June 30, 2011. This time, the men GET it! Guess what folks, since we are in the spirit of all things Peranakan, Jamie and I stumbled upon a wonderful offer we know you just can't reject . especially if you of the MALE. The Peranakan Museum has this really awesome promotion. Ending on 3rd July where guys get to go in for FREE! No strings attached, you don't have to pay a penny! But you know what? I say, get the guy and make him pay for your ticket! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Visit that Festival!: Ready for popiah?
http://visitthatfestival.blogspot.com/2011/07/ready-for-popiah.html
Tuesday, July 5, 2011. I took some pictures of our "popiah and pizza area" just so if anyone gets lost, they would know what to look out for. We could not reserve a function room, so we had to settle for a BBQ pit instead! But the fantastic part is it's only a few steps away from the pool! Our BBQ pit is PIT B. Yes, But we WILL NOT. Be having any BBQ - just popiah and pizza! So basically, you just get out of the station, cross the road, walk through the guard house and you're here! The Pool Deck is right...
