Drinking milk in China feels a bit like loading a gun barrel with one bullet and shooting at yourself. The milk safety scandals still has a lasting effect on customer confidence. So readers, please give me as much thank you in the comment for all the sacrifices I’m going through to review this for you! …
What springs to mind when I ask you about Russian beer? I would imagine something strong to warm up during those cold winters. Something dry and lager like. And if I say it’s black beer? Well, that should be even more potent. Stronger, drier and more bitter, like Guinness. It should be almost undrinkable for …
Have you ever tasted Marzipan before? The name sounds comical to me. It somehow reminds me of Spongebob Squarepants. Perhaps because both have the similar sound at the end. Marzipan technically is a confectionery that is made from crushed almonds. It is sort of like an ang moh‘s version of crushed peanuts snack that we …

I had this when I was at a middle-eastern-inspired restaurant in Singapore. The restaurant claims that it is not middle-eastern but to me, it serves very good middle eastern food in Singapore. What about the drinks? We shall see from this pomegranate drink. I took a sip. It was refreshing. Slightly bubbly. Slightly sweet. A …
