So I feel like a new person. After having weathered Covid-19 it’s nice to have energy back. I can’t imagine what it is to live with long Covid because the first few days of the illness I felt like a truck ran over me. But I was fortunate not to have fever and in fact … More Low Carb Fried Beef Noodles
Dad just celebrated his 84th birthday! It was a rather muted celebration because mum has Covid-19 and we couldn’t have visitors over. We ordered a special parents’ set lunch from Putien and he really enjoyed that. I’m thankful that he has an amazing appetite and really loves his food. He’s always been very adventurous food-wise, … More Low Carb Ipoh Hor Fun
There’s a bit of a new fad in town. In case you didn’t notice it, the 板面 (handmade noodle) stalls have started selling spinach and pork soup. Most times if I do eat at food courts and hawker centers I will choose a fish soup without noodles to keep things low carb, but the spinach … More Spinach and Meatball Noodle Soup
Today I celebrate my dad’s birthday. He’s 83 – a good age for a relatively healthy man. I’m grateful he’s still with me, although in my heart of hearts I grieve a little as I see the relentless progress of aging in his slower and less stable walking and his quieter demeanour over time.

Unfortunately kid#1 hates seafood (well, not squid or octopus but pretty much everything else that lives underwater). To top that off, … More Low Carb Seafood White Bee Hoon
It’s storming outside and it’s perfect weather for having a piping hot bowl of fish soup. One of the go to meals I choose when I eat at hawker centers is fish soup. Apparently fish soup is one of the 40 dishes that Singaporeans can’t live without. It’s light and flavourful and I’ve always been … More Sliced Fish Noodle Soup
I love it when I get surprised by low carb hacks I discover by accident. This week I had lunch with kid#1 at Nanjing Impressions at Plaza Singapura. I felt like having some soup and as usual we scanned the menu for non-carby items. I discovered that they had a dish called heritage duck soup … More Low Carb Braised Duck Noodles
It’s a cool and rainy day in Singapore. We’re into Phase 2 of reopening, which means that restaurants and food courts are open, with dining in groups of 5 is allowed. Strangely enough however, we haven’t been out dining in this season. In fact, we were out mainly to exercise together as a family (and … More Low Carb Bak Chor Mee
So one of the things about this blog is that some people have been saying that the recipes are too complicated. Okay, the feedback was from some friends who are non-cooks. But still…the comments gave me pause. So I think today’s recipe will definitely be classified as drop dead easy. Truly I wasn’t really in … More Low Carb Beef Noodle
