Food For My Belly

It's been nearly 8 months since I last blogged, I can't believe so much time has passed! >_< Yes, I have been a bit slack but this matcha banana bread recipe is going to totally make up for it. In the past month, I have made several versions of The Baker Chick's banana bread  and the general consensus at home was that the matcha version of it is the best one and I absolutely agree. Being me, I couldn't help but deviate from the recipe as usual but it's all good coz there are no complaints at home and my matcha banana bread is always demolished in under 24-48 hours (depending how many batches I make). Keep reading to find out how to make this delicious recipe :)

You either love or hate it; that's what they say but I do know some people who are indifferent about it. Those who hate it can't stand the smell of it whereas I love the king of fruits and I think it smells damn good. I once had a professor explain what durian tasted like to the whole class and this is what he said, "Eating durian is like eating custard in a smelly toilet" . For those of you who have never tried durian, I highly encourage you to at least try it once in your life. I mean, you'll never know...you might just end up loving it :)

I may have lived in Melbourne for the past 15 years of my life but I will always call Malaysia, home. "home is where love resides, memories are created, friends always belong and laughter never ends" Whenever I am back, there are always so many new food places that I discover on people's blogs or instagram that I want to eat at but other times, I like returning to my old favourites :)

I remember once as a kid in Malaysia; my mum whisked me from school and took me to Singapore with her for the day as she had some business meetings to attend to. Did I remember her attending business meetings? Not really but I do remember the both of us sitting in a restaurant overlooking Orchard Road where we observed the people who went by. We had Japanese food; I had an ebi don and mum had an unagi don. I am blessed that at a very young age, I was exposed to different types of cuisines and I enjoy eating as much as I can. It's not the first time that I have been to Singapore but the past two times that I was there, I did not get to explore the food scene as much as I wanted to. So, this time I made it a point that I would try to hit up as many food places and eat as much as my stomach will let me. Below are the list of places that I visited whilst in Singapore:-
