About

Hello everyone! This is my first ever cooking blog which i would love to share with everyone who enjoy food as much as I do! Let me give you a brief introduction of myself. My name is Kelsey, I am French/Singaporean, born in London. I’ve traveled 9 times in my life time to  7 different countries. Through this experience, i’ve learnt different cultures and different recipes, and through my heritage i was able to try foods from the best of both worlds. Cooking is never a chore to my family and I, we love and appreciate every moment of it. I am not a chef nor a wannabe chef, but just an ordinary eurasian girl who just cooks as a passion and loves learning and making new recipe’s, i’ve been very fortunate to have loving aunties, mother and grandma to learn from Asian to European to Fusion, they’ve thought me their amazing traditional recipe’s which i will be sharing with you. Till then, BON APPETIT  :)

  10. Thanks for stopping by my post and the “like.” The Army has let me be a bit of a traveller myself with 42 countries and 48 states under my belt (not exactly as a tourist). Your recipes sound much better than the regular fare I ate then :-)

  18. This is a very cool blog. You have food on here that I’ve never heard of, but would love to try. Every Friday I have a “foodie” post and you have some dishes on here i would like to post on.

  22. Kelsey, Its refreshing to see other fitness conscious individuals these days. Just browsing a bit on your site, those recipes you post look fantastic, I only wish you could cook them for me! Between work, and then working out after I don’t get much time anymore to take my time and cook some of the delicious foods you’ve mentioned.

    Either way, keep it up, and don’t forget to stop on over at convictworkout.wordpress.com to check out my progress.

    Enjoy your day,

  26. Greetings, Kelsey, and thanks for liking my cold-busting tomato tea recipe! What’s a favorite food obsession of yours at the moment? Mine is Thai larb; I’m making it once a week and serving it to everybody… I’ll cycle through to something new eventually but at the moment the taste of all those fresh herbs and the crunch of the lettuce and cabbage are the big IT for me!

    • Hi, it depends really, i always have a craving for really spicy chillies. But right now i have an obsession with vietnamese pho with beef tenant and raw beef, had it 2saturdays in a row :P just love the fresh mint/lemon juice/fresh chilli along with yummy rice noodles. Its very light and very healthy. I also have a horrible obsession with chocolate hazelnut and bubble tea -jasmin milk tea with pearls/sago. With all this eating and no exercise for the time being has really made me feel horrible and sluggish, so by tomorrow when i do we weekly grocery shopping i’m going to be focusing a lot on salads and vegetarian dishes which i’ll be blogging about :) Thai larb sounds like heaven! I’d actually wouldn’t mind trying that, my next restaurant would definitely be thai.

      • Girl, you’ve got my attention, especially at the moment regarding the chocolate hazelnut and bubble tea. Sounds great for right about now! Is that a grocery store item? And yes, get to a good Thai establishment when you can and order larb as a salad… heaven!

  35. Hey, Kelsey, thank you for the “like.” Great pictures and recipes! Lucky you to have a family of caring cooks! If, along your tasting tales, you find a favorite meal that takes less than 1 minute to make, is around 300 calories, and is somewhat healthy, send it over to me. I’ll put it on my site and give your site the credit! :)

      • Thanks :) . My blog has a bit different profile and is focused on health, but I enjoy tasting new, interesting recipes, providing they seem to have a good combination for my stomach (so for example, no meat with potatoes, too heavy to digest).

  55. Hi Kelsey,

    You’ve got a wonderful blog up here. I suppose the picture you have up there makes a fantastic cover for your future cooking book! :-)

    Thank you for liking my post. I am enjoying yours and will be gladly following. I hope your visits in my blog have been and will always be a joyful ride! :-)

    Thank you and have a lovely weekend, my friend!

  71. Kelsey,
    I like the blog, and the attitude. I might also like to borrow an occasional recipe for our farmers’ market blog if you don’t mind, giving you credit if I do of course.

    • Hi Brian,
      Sorry for the late reply.
      Yes of course, take any recipe which could help your blog.
      It’d be such an honour to be apart with LeRoy Farmers Market.
      Looking forward to your reply,
      Regards Kelsey

  76. Thanks for liking my post. I can see by the beauty of your blog that you may have been misled by the title of my article and realized too late how awful it was. Lol. Next time give me a heads-up so I can copy-paste from a magazine.

    Cheers!
