People often tell me that it's not worth making my own bread cause it's only $2 a loaf. Well, a baker will always be a baker.

I'm glad I was persistent in learning and have finally advanced my bread making skills (it only took a few

years...), cause now I get fresh buns every morning!

Here's a tip for you bread makers - just double your favourite bread recipe and follow the normal procedure. After the second rise, shape your bread dough into the desired shape and wrap each bun individually with cling film. Place the wrapped dough in the freezer until you are ready to bake them.

I normally defrost my frozen bun(s) (1 or 2 at a time) in the fridge the night before I bake them - that's the third rise which happens overnight. When I wake up I just take the buns out from the fridge and preheat the oven and then go brush up. By the time I'm done, the oven is ready and I get fresh bread in 14 minutes.

If you want it right away, you can just defrost the frozen buns at room temperature for about 15 minutes and bake it as per instructed temperature. You may need to increase the baking duration for a few more minutes though!


Happy baking!





I've always been a burrito kinda girl but this place changed my mind. Their tacos are the BOMB! We tried three different types of tacos including the fish Baja, carnitas, and the taco of the day (shredded beef) and they were all super tasty! My favorite was the Baja, and I don't normally like ordering fish and chips or fried fish of any kind. Wow, this place is filled with surprises! We also ordered the seafood burritos but we didn't like it that much. It's saucy and flavorful as well but there's too much rice.


Price: $6.5 - $8 per taco / $13.75 per burrito

Taste: 4.8/5

Coming to think of it, I haven't had too many home cooked Chinese meals recently. I'm not sure if my Chinese food selection is restricted with the location that I'm residing in, or am I craving different cuisines due to the travel restrictions... Since I can't travel I guess the only way to satisfy my wanderlust itch is to be adventurous with the menus.

This week's pick is the La Taqueria Pinche Taco Shop (TBH I don't know how to pronounce 50% of their store name). Their tacos are the BOMB! I've always been a burrito kinda girl but this place changed my mind.
