Did you go to the Good Food & Wine Show on previous weekend? If you did, I hope you enjoyed it. I'm always a fan of Food & Wine Show, being such a massive foodie, it's just like going to a wonderland. Thanks to Devahasdin  for the sponsored tickets to the event, me and my friend had a blast. We decided to go on the Sunday session, because I liked the crowd (not so good for photo blogging, so please bear with my crappy photo framing). Although it seemed like it was crowded than last year, this year's exhibition stands were well apart with plenty of room for traffic flow and it also provided a bigger celebrity chef theatre. There were a few familiar stands returning to the show, like the ever popular Luv-A-Duck, Mahogany Creek, the Bratwurst Hut, Turban Chopsticks, Chilli Salt, etc. We also noticed there were quite a few new and interesting stands offering excellent products.

Crust Gourmet Pizza Bar, an addition to Retail T6 complex at Subiaco I was invited to attend my first ever blog related event 2 months ago by Crust Gourmet Pizza Bar marketing team. In conjunction with the opening of their first WA's shop, some of us were invited to attend an exclusive blogger masterclass at the Subiaco store. Joining me to the event was Karen from Karen Cheng's Fashion and life , Conor from Hold the Beef ,  Lori from Musings of a Wannabe Gourmand and Devan from Bowl of Honey . Clean and brightly lit pizza shop  I used to work at a local suburban pizza shop as a delivery driver back in my uni days, a place where most client smells of bourbon and the shop was located at one dark corner of a dodgy suburb. However, I personally think their pizza was better than those international chain. Fast forward to 2010/2011, "gourmet" is the cool word to use and modern decor that plays with colours and lightings tends to attract more people, especially the...

Last Friday, marked the end of Ramadan (the Islamic holy end of fasting month), to the whole nation of Malaysia, that means yet another festive holiday - Hari Raya Aidilfitri (Celebration Day). Although I'm not a Muslim, but we do join in the fun of celebration, and food is the best way to learn and celebrate about the other culture. However, before celebrating Hari Raya Aidilfitri , Muslims have to fast for a month from dawn til sunset(that included refrain from eating, drinking and having any form of intercourse. So, if you happen to travel to Malaysia during fasting month, the chances of dining at a Malays' restaurant/shop/stall/kiosk during daytime are quite slim. However, Ramadan Bazaar is one of the most anticipated place to go every evening. What's there? One might ask. FOOD, STREET FOOD! As a Malaysian myself, I've never been to a Ramadan Bazaar in my entire life, heck I've never even heard of it! Only until recently that I discovered about its existe...
