Pig Pig’s Corner covers both recipes and also restaurant reviews; regardless of what they post, I am always drooling over their foods. This week, I started off the…
Recently, I have been craving for Penang hawker food (street food). I haven’t been home to Penang for well over eight months so it’s hard not to miss all the great foods of my hometown. Curry Mee—otherwise known as curry laksa, or laksa—is a noodle dish with a coconut milk curry gravy. (This is not to be confused with Penang…

Since my second sister came into town, we have been cooking up a storm. (Previously, we have made pineapple fried rice and salted fish bones curry.)

Whenever I go back to Penang, I would never miss out ordering this dish at the “Ikan Panggang” (grilled fish) hawker stall.

One of my favorite this this curry clams, which is basically clams seasoned with some curry powder and seasonings, and…

Look what I found today? Calamansi. Or Calamondin, or sometimes spelled as kalamansi. I didn’t find the tree, because calamansi or calamondin trees are everywhere here in SoCal and can be bought at Home Depot and many Asian grocery stores.
