Handmade Sarawak Kolo Mee @ Restoran Permai Utama E-Fatt, Bandar Bukit Puchong

Kolo mee is a popular Sarawakian Chinese dish, featuring dry noodles tossed in a light sauce made from lard and shallots. The sauce is often just enough to coat the noodles. Different places have their own versions, but it is often served together with sliced charsiu (roast pork), ground pork and vegetables. Puchong is a big place, with most of the commercial shops concentrated near … Continue reading Handmade Sarawak Kolo Mee @ Restoran Permai Utama E-Fatt, Bandar Bukit Puchong

30-Day Writing Challenge : Day 15 – One Thing You Never Learned

15. One Thing You Never Learned  I’ve never learned how to swim properly. I can ‘move’ from one end of the pool to another (or more like half the pool), but I never learned how to float. So if I was in a place where my feet don’t touch the ground, I’d probably drown. When I was a little girl, my dad attempted to teach … Continue reading 30-Day Writing Challenge : Day 15 – One Thing You Never Learned

30-Day Writing Challenge: Day 12 – Friendships

12. Friendships  Friendships come easy to some people. It’s fascinating how some people just have the gift of the gab for approaching complete strangers and somehow leaving with numbers, smiles and promises to catch up over drinks someday. I, on the other hand, have struggled with this since high school. Being bullied, ostracised and made to feel like I never belonged, I am now somewhat … Continue reading 30-Day Writing Challenge: Day 12 – Friendships

30-Day Writing Challenge – Day 11: An Adventure In The Kitchen

11. An Adventure In The Kitchen First things first: I am not much of a cook. When I was younger, my mother ruled the kitchen with an iron-fist, and would often shoo me out because I wasn’t cutting something right or wasn’t quick enough to take the pan off the heat, etc. Over the years, my interest waned, and while she did eventually try to … Continue reading 30-Day Writing Challenge – Day 11: An Adventure In The Kitchen

30-Day Writing Challenge : Day 10 – Traffic

10. Traffic  Like many major cities in Southeast Asia, traffic in Kuala Lumpur is pretty bad. The distance between my home and the office is about 20 kilometres, and I spend about an hour getting to work, and 1.5 hours to get home. This will stretch to two hours when it rains, or if it’s a Friday evening. Traffic congestion has been a long standing … Continue reading 30-Day Writing Challenge : Day 10 – Traffic
