Kawan-Kawan Katong: Festive fruit cake
http://katonglife.blogspot.com/2014/12/festive-fruit-cake.html
Saturday, December 27, 2014. As is my usual practice. I made my traditional sugee cake this Christmas, plus some mince pies. Plus my mother made her shortbread. But I felt that it was time for something new. So, I decided that this year would be the year I tackled fruit cake! So I started checking recipes. I looked through Mrs Ellice Handy's book for her recipe, but was totally bowled over by the amount of fruit (almost 2kg worth) and the fact that the recipe was for 3 medium loaf tins! I can't seem to f...

Kawan-Kawan Katong: Dutch Burghers in Sri Lanka
http://katonglife.blogspot.com/2014/10/dutch-burghers-in-sri-lanka.html
Saturday, October 25, 2014. Dutch Burghers in Sri Lanka. A few months ago, I paid my first visit to Sri Lanka. I was here essentially to spend time with a friend and also to meet up with an old University classmate. But I must admit that I also came here to explore the links and connections between Sri Lanka and the other colonial territories of the Portuguesse and British in Asia, principally Malacca and Singapore. St Theresa's Church, Colombo. The Dutch Burgher Union House. And now that the Sri Lankan ...

Kawan-Kawan Katong: April 2014
http://katonglife.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 27, 2014. Balik Kampong" is a Malay term which essentially means going back (or "balik") to one's home village (or "kampong"). It can sometimes be used in a derogatory sense - for example, one could tell the referee in a football game to "balik kampong" if you disagree with his stupid decisions. Balik Kampong" means, simply, going home to the people and place you left behind. Strangely enough, roughly what this entire blog is about. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Kawan-Kawan Katong: March 2014
http://katonglife.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 21, 2014. First, lets eat! The House of Sundanese Food started off in a little shophouse near the Holy Family Church in Katong. It subsequently moved (to Suntec City) but now it is back again! But in a different guise, because they wanted to broaden their menu to include other non-Indonesian items. Bring it on, I say. Especially when this means they have pohpiah on the menu! Fragrant curry with a very more-ish curry gravy). Indonesian favourites such as tauhu telor. Below) and sayur lodeh.

Kawan-Kawan Katong: Malacca - old and new
http://katonglife.blogspot.com/2015/01/malacca-old-and-new.html
Saturday, January 24, 2015. Malacca - old and new. Since my last visit to Malacca three years ago, there have indeed been a number of changes. Malacca (together with Georgetown, Penang, were awarded UNESCO World Heritage site status. In 2008. This has resulted in a lot more visitors to Malacca, and a lot more tourism-related investments. Casa del Rio - view from our window. I bought my Pineapple tarts from Christine Ee at Jalan Hang Lekir, together with some good quality gula melaka. Sun May Hiong Satay.
