To those foodies who are familiar with the KL food circuit, Restoran Goon Wah would need no introduction. But for a PJ girl like me, whose furthest self drive adventure to the vicinity of KL stretches only as far as Mid Valley, the name Kuchai Lama is like "err yea, heard of it, but doesn't have the faintest idea how to get there". So long as someone else drives, I'm game!
Happy Belated Mother's Day to my fellow ladies bloggers and readers.
I had a enjoyable Mother's Day this year. A few weeks ago I told hubby I would like to do something different for Mother's Day, like a weekend getaway to someplace out of KL but not too far away.
We had a small tub of durians left, so i decided to make a cake with it. I had originally wanted to make this Durian Yogurt Cake, but realised I didn't have yogurt and enough eggs. Too lazy to run out to the minimart nearby, so I googled around abit and found this easy muffin recipe.
My Ayam Masak Lemak actually has no cili api (bird's eye chili) because firstly, I am not good with spicy foods, secondly hubby has just recovered from a bout of diarrhea and fever so nothing too stomach-churning for him; and thirdly I wanted my son to have a try.
Apparently this dish is a must-have during the Chinese New Year meals, but I don't remember ever seeing this dish in our family CNY dinners :P I read in some Chinese cookbooks that this dish is considered auspicious.
