Bangkok is a shopping heaven for many (including me). Due to the large amount of tourists visiting Bangkok, scams are aplenty too. Who would have thought that we would nearly got conned in Bangkok? This incident happened back in 2014 when I first visited Bangkok but the memory of it is still fresh in mind.
During my recent trip to Singapore, Bie and I stayed in a hotel at Bugis area. When we were at Bugis Downtown MRT station, Sun Sun said she wanna intro us this tau fu fa (beancurd jelly/豆腐花) that she always crave for. And of course we agreed to it! Trying what the locals eat is always better than eating touristy food.
Sun Sun said the brand she bought normally is called 老伴 but this stall here at Bugis Downtown MRT station is called 糖仔 (Tang Zai). They claimed that it’s the same though but we still felt skeptical. After all, why would a famous brand change their name to confuse their loyal fans, right?
Life has been great lately! Managed to visit Malacca again after 2 months and this time, I had more time discovering the historical city. 🙂
One of the best discoveries was the first Peranakan Hi-Tea buffet at Makan Nyonya Resturant in my favorite Peranakan themed boutique hotel, Estadia Hotel. Makan Nyonya Restaurant is an all-day dining restaurant that offers an endless array of Peranakan cuisine and local specialities.
This Peranakan Hi-Tea Buffet has certainly exceeded my expectation as they serve a wide variety of Baba Nyonya cuisine. From mouth-watering Peranakan appetizers to the delectable main course and desserts, expect to get a taste of Melaka through a colourful culinary journey with family and friends.
