And yes, I’ve been cooking …lots. Problem is the food gets eaten before a decent picture is taken. I’ve made Rasa Malaysia’s chicken satay complete with peanut sauce twice in the past week and each time we think about taking a picture, the hungry minions get restless, so we say "forget it!"
I did manage to [...]

Shanghai Soup Dumpling
Like the new look?
I know, I know, what can I say, I’m a fickle woman. Not that I wasn’t happy with my previous design but I thought there was too much going on with the colors and the sidebars that they were diverting the focus away from the blog posts. I knew I [...]

Rolled Omelette
I’ve always been curious about making my own Japanese omelette, you know the one you make in a rectangular pan? I know a lot of you wouldn’t want to purchase a pan specifically for this type of omelette but the recipe below makes a tasty egg dish – rolled or not. Treat it like [...]
How to survive Sunday while waiting for True Blood

Wafu-gyoza
I love dumplings. I really do. But finding the time to make them seems close to impossible. The one time I made wantons were at a friend’s house. It’s always good to make them with a couple of friends since we Asians tend to make a ton of these things at a time and looking [...]

Casserole-roasted Chicken with tarragon
A foodie’s most anticipated movie opened last Friday. There were Julie/Julia parties, there were movie premiere galas and there was my own private tribute to one of the most inspiring women I, alas, never had the pleasure to meet. Prior to reading her memoir “My Life in France”, I had lumped Julia [...]

Unagi Don over rice served with pickled radish
Remember that song from the 80’s? I seem to be singing it a lot lately. I’ve made no secret of my love for Japanese food especially their donburi fare. I always tell the “Hungry” Hubby that I must have been Japanese in a previous life. However, trying my [...]
